Craft Small Batch Ryewhiskey Bottled-In-Bond Premium Aged Spirits From Newriff

New Riff Bottled In Bond Rye Whiskey

Since its launch in 2014, New Riff Distillery has redefined Kentucky’s bourbon legacy by crafting a standout rye whiskey that rivals industry icons like Maker’s Mark. Founded by Ken Lewis—a seasoned entrepreneur with deep roots in Kentucky’s liquor industry—the distillery brings together a diverse team of experts from craft beer and beyond to prioritize innovation without compromising tradition. Their goal? To establish themselves as one of the world’s premier small-batch distilleries by focusing solely on excellence.

What sets New Riff apart is its unwavering commitment to the Bottled in Bond standard, a century-old quality benchmark introduced in 1897. By adhering exclusively to this stringent protocol—ensuring each bottle is aged four years in charred oak barrels and untouched by chill-filtration—New Riff delivers a whiskey that’s rich in flavor and free from additives. This meticulous process results in a bold rye whiskey made from a unique mashbill of 95% rye grain paired with 5% malted rye, creating an aromatic profile bursting with spicy complexity. Whether sipped neat or used to elevate craft cocktails, this spirit offers a robust taste experience that resonates with both bourbon purists and adventurous drinkers seeking something extraordinary.

As a family-owned operation unshackled from corporate constraints, New Riff has the freedom to innovate while honoring time-honored techniques. Their dedication shines through every bottle, making this rye a standout choice for those who demand authenticity and craftsmanship.
