New Riff bourbons available to local retailers, restaurants, wider distribution scheduled for the fall


After the launch in August, New Riff Distilling is expecting September to be another big month for its bourbons.

New Riff Kentucky Straight Bourbon Bottled in Bond Without Chill Filtration and the debut of New Riff Single Barrel Bourbon, bottled at Barrel Proof Without Chill Filtration, are hitting the big time.

They are going out to fine retailers, bars and restaurants in Kentucky and Ohio as well as the New Riff distillery shop shelves. Now consumers can find New Riff at local stores, bars and restaurants.

Bottled at Barrel Proof

The Single Barrel expression is bottled at barrel proof without chill filtration, allowing the Bourbon lover to drink it at his or her preferred strength. No two barrels are the same, each creating their own story. A sensory panel carefully tastes each and every barrel destined to be a Single Barrel selection.

At New Riff, single barrel expressions are a way of life.

As former Kentucky liquor retailers, the New Riff owners are well acquainted with some of Kentucky’s most famed private barrel Bourbon selections, and strive to bring that experience to New Riff.

A New Riff Private Barrel selection, whether for trade or private clients is replete with tasting notes and an immersive process in the warehouse. Each New Riff single barrel has been tasted and approved by its production panel. Its retail and on-premise partners then select each of their private barrels themselves.

The suggested retail price is $49.99

New Riff has started its path to growth in Ohio and Kentucky and will be available in New York, New Jersey, Indiana, and Minnesota later this fall.
