The Story Behind The Bottle

Habits Bottle Shop
New Riff Single Barrel Rye Whiskey is produced by New Riff Distilling in Newport, Kentucky, a distillery that has quickly earned a strong reputation among rye enthusiasts for its intense, focused flavor profile. As a single barrel release, each bottling reflects the individual character of the specific barrel selected, meaning no two releases are ever quite identical. This is not a light or subtle whiskey - expect a bold nose of peppery rye spice, toasted grain, and dark caramel, with a palate that delivers intense, focused spice layered over vanilla and oak, finishing long and warmly spiced with real grain-forward intensity.
Given its bold, concentrated character, this rye is best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to fully appreciate its layered intensity. It also makes an excellent, assertive base for a classic Sazerac or Manhattan. Pair it with smoked brisket, aged cheddar, or dark chocolate to stand up to its power.
New Riff has become a favorite among serious rye drinkers for its unapologetically bold, grain-forward approach to distilling. Shop New Riff Single Barrel Rye Whiskey online at Habits Bottle Shop and experience this intensely flavored Kentucky rye.

In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
