New Riff Distilling Single Barrel Program Now Offers 6-Year Bourbon

New Riff Single Barrel Aged 6 Years bottle

New Riff Distilling’s Single Barrel program continues to grow, with the Northern Kentucky distillery now offering 6-year bourbon barrels for selection. 

Single barrel selections are popular with bourbon clubs, corporate groups, bars and retailers — who can now choose between 4- and 6-year bourbons as well as 6-year rye whiskey. With some barrels available for next day pick up and in fractional barrel increments, New Riff’s Single Barrel Selection experience remains one of the most extensive in the industry. For more information, visit https://www.newriffdistilling.com/single-barrel.

“For years, New Riff has offered an exceptional Single Barrel Experience — intentionality is a cornerstone of everything we do and that ethos certainly extends to the experience we offer to those who choose to pick a barrel with us,” Mollie Lewis, New Riff President, said in a news release. “We’ve consistently offered single barrels chosen by our team at retail, but the pick experience truly highlights the individuality and character of our whiskeys.” 

New Riff takes pride in offering an educational and engaging barrel selection experience every bit as singular as the barrels themselves. Each Single Barrel Selection Experience includes full tours of the distillery and West Campus, where New Riff houses the rickhouses and bottling hall and hosts single barrel picks in a turn-of-the-century tasting room. After, guests are treated to a post-pick stop at The Aquifer Tasting Room.

Currently, New Riff 6-year-old Single Barrel Bourbon is exclusively offered as a single barrel selection by the whole barrel — and not available at retail unless picked as part of a store’s own barrel selection.

The distillery also offers 4-year-old Single Barrel Bourbon and 6-year-old Single Barrel rye for barrel selections, and those may be purchased in customizable quantities starting at just 90 bottles. New Riff is one of few distilleries offering fractional single barrels. 

Additionally, New Riff offers several convenient pickup options, including next day pickup (for additional fees and subject to availability). New Riff can also ship single barrel selections to many states once bottled.

New Riff will continue to offer staff-picked single barrel selections at retail, aged 4 years for both bourbon and rye. Consumers may find retailer-picked selections for sale at their favorite shops in both 4- and 6-year offerings.

New Riff Distilling starts with time-honored sour mash methods and bottled-in-bond standards, creating new riffs on old traditions since 2014. Located in Northern Kentucky — the gateway to bourbon country — the independently-owned distillery produces award-winning bourbon, rye, single malt whiskey and gin. Bourbon and rye are also available in single barrel selections, and the distillery boasts a popular private barrel selection program offering quarter, half and full barrel picks complete with personalized labels.
