Tasting Notes

Nose

Wood smoke curling through vanilla and corn sweetness, with orange peel and damp earth behind.

Palate

Full and chewy. Honeyed corn, charred oak, a ribbon of soft peat smoke, dried cherries and black pepper.

Finish

Long, smoky and peppery, with lingering vanilla and a faintly ashy edge.

Expert Review

8.5/10

New Riff's experimental bourbon made with peated-malt sour mash — a smoky, sour-mash oddity from Newport.
