New Riff's 2014 Bottled in Bond 4-year-old Rye Whiskey is a high-quality spirit that embodies a spicy character, built upon America's 1897 Bottled-in-Bond Act, which sets the highest quality standard for aged spirits. Produced by New Riff Distilling, this whiskey features a unique mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted rye, following the full sour mash Kentucky regimen. It is bottled without chill filtration, staying true to traditional production methods. Aged for four years in 53-gallon toasted and charred new oak barrels, this rye whiskey offers a deep amber hue, with notes of butterscotch, fresh oak, vanilla, and rye spice. Its full-bodied mouthfeel transitions from a sweet vanilla undertone to a medley of rye spices like clove, cinnamon, mint, and dark berry, culminating in a long, rye-forward finish with hints of brambly red-black fruits, white pepper, and clove.
In addition to their Rye Whiskey, New Riff Distilling offers a Bottled in Bond Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which shares the same commitment to quality and adherence to the Bottled-in-Bond Act. This bourbon features a mash bill of 65% corn, 30% rye, and 5% malted barley, offering a robust, high-rye spirit with a savory and spicy profile. Aged for four years in 53-gallon toasted and charred new oak barrels, this bourbon boasts a rich, unfiltered deep amber hue, showcasing notes of butterscotch, fresh oak, vanilla, and rye spice, similar to its rye counterpart.
The Bottled in Bond Act of 1897 was a turning point for American whiskey, as it established a new standard for quality and transparency. New Riff Distilling proudly adheres to these strict regulations, using no shortcuts in their traditional production methods. By embracing the Bottled in Bond Act as their signature for all whiskey expressions, New Riff Distilling demonstrates their unwavering dedication to producing high-quality, aged spirits.
