New Riff’s new Sour Mash Single Malt whiskey, which began the distilling process in 2014, goes on sale Tuesday.
Anyone interested in trying the newly bottled whiskey can stop by New Riff’s gift shop starting at 11 a.m. at 24 Distillery Way in Newport.
“On one hand, it is entirely different from everything else we’ve ever made,” said co-founder Jay Erisman. “But on the other, it is entirely faithful to our mission to be a ‘new riff on an old tradition,’ using the sour mash regimen to explore another classic whiskey tradition.”
