New Riff Single Barrel Bourbon Review
New Riff is absolutely deserving of its reputation for offering outstanding single barrel whiskeys. Aged at least four years, this high-rye bourbon arrives at around 110 proof. It reveals layers and complexity from the get-go, serving caramel, oak, and black pepper aromas, and cloves, tobacco, and a faint menthol note on the palate.
