New Riff Distilling has announced that its Single Barrel Experience will expand its offerings with its first-ever Malted Rye single barrel selection.
Available this month, Single Barrel Malted Rye is the latest New Riff whiskey to join the Newport distillery’s bespoke barrel program.
“We’re excited to introduce Malted Rye as the fourth offering in our robust Single Barrel program,” said Chief Sales Officer Rawnica Dillingham. “It’s something we’ve heard strong demand for, and we’re thrilled it’s now available for selections, giving our trade partners and private Single Barrel customers a chance to enjoy a truly unique New Riff experience.”
Malted Rye will make its Single Barrel debut aged 6 years and distilled with a mashbill of 100% malted rye.
“Our Single Barrel Malted Rye showcases the whiskey in its purest form,” said Master Distiller Brian Sprance. “Crafted from 100% malted rye, a rare style in today’s whiskey market, each barrel offers its own distinct flavor profile, with bold fruit character balanced by soft caramel undertones that let the whiskey speak for itself. This release is an exciting opportunity to experience New Riff Malted Rye at barrel proof, fully unblended and expressive of its individual character.”
New Riff will continue to offer staff-picked single barrel selections at retail, aged 4 years for bourbon and 6 years for rye. Consumers may find retailer-picked selections for sale at their shops across all the single-barrel offerings. To learn more about New Riff Single Barrel selections, click here.
