New Riff Single Barrel Rye
New Riff Distilling's Single Barrel Rye expression is a full bodied whiskey offering vibrant, spicy character. Bottled at Barrel Proof Without Chill Filtration, and featuring a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted rye, this 100% rye whiskey represents a new riff on one of the most influential of modern whiskey traditions. Aged four years in 53-gallon toasted and charred new oak barrels, there are no shortcuts taken in our production. All New Riff whiskeys are made with the full sour mash Kentucky Regimen; all carry an age statement, and are always bottled without chill filtration. At New Riff, single barrel expressions are a way of life. As former Kentucky liquor retailers, we are intimately familiar with some of Kentucky's most famed single barrel Bourbon selections ever, and we bring that experience to New Riff. Each New Riff single barrel has been tasted and approved by our production panel. You may sample a New Riff Single Barrel knowing it was fully vetted for quality and character.

Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Nose: Well balanced between nougat confection and rye-derived spices such as black pepper, clove, grains of paradise and pink peppercorns.
Palate: Broad, fulsome mouthfeel, a sweet-spicy-savory interplay developing into floral rose and red fruit notes.
Finish: Fine length and detail, showing potent rye spices which last and last.

Frey Ranch Straight Rye
Frey Ranch Bottled-In-Bond Straight Rye Whiskey is made with 100% Winter Cereal Rye. While it's rare to feature a 100% single grain mash bill, we wanted to showcase the quality of our slow-grown Rye grains without the impact of any other flavors. Aged for a minimum of five years and bottled at 100 proof, this whiskey is smooth enough to sip, yet spicy enough to shine in a cocktail. Our Straight Rye Whiskey is recognized with a Double Gold medal from the San Francisco World Spirit Competition, which is a true recognition to the high-quality Rye grown right here on the Frey Ranch.
