Tasting Notes

New Riff's Straight Balboa Rye is a delightful symphony of flavors, a true testament to the artistry of whiskey-making. Crafted from a rare heirloom 'Balboa' rye, this Kentucky straight rye whiskey captivates the senses with its alluring aroma of oaky char, crunchy plums, dried cranberries, and a medley of spices like pepper and allspice. On the palate, it unfolds a harmonious blend of caramel drizzles, vanilla, redcurrants, and cinnamon, perfectly balanced with the rye's signature spicy notes. The finish lingers with a delightful warmth, showcasing the rye's character through notes of pepper, nutmeg, clove, and nigella seeds. Matured for a minimum of four years and bottled without chill filtration, this whiskey bursts with fruit and spice, offering a truly unique and captivating experience for connoisseurs and novices alike.
