The Party Source pick Barrel No. 12292 Distilled in July 2018 Bottled in September 2022 Age - 4 years, 2 months 55.9% abv; 111.8 proof Open 1 month Nose - Cherry, allspice, fresh hay, honeycomb, chalk, vanilla, artificial orange, medium oak, and medium ethanol. Palate - Spiced orange, dark honey, black pepper, sweet grain, licorice, oak tannins, and clove. Finish is medium-long with black pepper, oak, vegetal herbs, dill, citrus peel, and medium ethanol. Spoiler alert - I moved to Cincinnati a month ago and have been taking too many short trips across the river to The Party Source in Bellevue, KY. The Party Source is claimed to be the second largest liquor store in the country that also conveniently shares a parking lot with New Riff. This is a distillery I haven't gotten to try while living in NC. It gets the same type of praise as Wilderness Trail, but their bourbon falls short. I may have picked the weirdest of the 4 bourbon picks available at Party Source. One of the cool things about New Riff is they are very transparent with their picks, and provide tasting notes on the bottle. On the bottle the aroma - black cherry, walnuts; flavor - orange juice, coconut; finish - dry, peppery. In retrospect I should've picked something with more classic high rye flavors, the orange juice and coconut intrigued me. Luckily all New Riff bottles are very affordable and since this purchase I've visited the distillery bar to taste more bourbons, ryes, and malted rye. My conclusion from that visit is they do a great job with their ryes but their high rye bourbons are middle-of-the-pack when compared to MGP bourbons.
