High Note 10 Year Old Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

118.8 Proof | Aged at least 10 years

59.4% alc/vol. | Straight Rye Whiskey

This barrel proof blend represents the continued evolution of 10 Year Old whiskey at New Riff. Distilled in a different year than our inaugural release, these barrels reflect the consistency, confidence, and deeper understanding we’ve built through more than a decade of distilling and blending whiskey with a clear sense of identity and purpose.
With a decade of age, both our bourbon and rye reveal amplified flavor profiles as the bold spice of the grains gives way to the deep, rich influence of oak. Carefully selected and blended to represent the character of New Riff today, these releases showcase not only how beautifully our whiskey continues to age, but also the steady refinement of the techniques and instincts that have guided us from the very beginning.
