New Riff Kentucky Straight Bourbon Bottled In Bond

Typical bourbon flavors - high amounts of honey with a high rye spice that leaves a long lingering finish.

Solid. Better than I thought. Pretty hot but quite tasty

nice taste, not as much burn as I expected. just a nice smooth experience. @brent and I enjoyed this in a break from work.

I was on a trip in the Dayton/ Cincinnati area last month and picked up a bottle after a bit of research. Its the only sipper I had in my hotel room for the week so I had some time to get acquainted. I was not expecting much from a micro distillery who elected to start their business by putting out a bottled in bond product instead of with a good blend of sourced juice. Boy was I wrong. The Folks @ New Riff have started out of the gates on the correct path. Instead of a young subpar product with a gimmick built on touring a distillery, these folks have produced a quality bottled in bond product. It has enough spice to keep the dram interesting. It has enough depth and complexity to stand on its own while at a price point where you don't mind mixing. I found it a better rocks pour than a neat drink. If you can locate some online its worth $37 to try. I brought a few home to gift my friends. I can't wait to try the Single Barrel and Rye they also have available. Great Job New Riff!

Quite impressive BIB for a new distillery...It’s exactly what it says it is...Rich, intense, spicy, straightforward bourbon which I truly enjoy. Nice nose of wood, rye spices and vanilla. On the palate a bit viscous, great balance of sweet and spicy with a medium, warming finish. An enjoyable dram

Nose: slightly sweet but a unique nose, hints of popcorn; somewhere between a good rye and a standard Four Roses Palate: rich, sweeter up front, hints of toffee but it’s dry for what it gives you at first Finish: spice kicks in here and it’s pleasant, food balance of wood sugars and spices, hints of vanilla A hidden gem because it’s on most shelves in Kentucky. Definitely will try again and explore

cherry, corn, spice. need to taste more
