New Riff Distilling is ready for the holiday season with the re-release of its Winter Whiskey, a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey made with malted oats and chocolate malt.
The expression’s mashbill is made up of 65% corn, 20% malted oats, 7% pale ale malt, 5% steel cut raw oats and 3% chocolate malt. Winter Whiskey is bottled in bond without chill filtration at 100 proof and aged at least four years.
“Winter Whiskey offers a classic bourbon foundation of clean, sweet corn, enhanced with layers of malty, nutty and dark chocolate flavors,” said New Riff Distilling Master Distiller Brian Sprance. “Inspired by years of brewing expertise, Winter Whiskey reimagines the essence of a classic oatmeal stout, creating a non-traditional, one-of-a-kind bourbon.”
The Newport distillery’s seasonal offering first debuted in 2020 as a riff on bourbon bearing nostalgic holiday flavors.
New Riff’s Winter Whiskey is available for purchase at the distillery gift shop in Newport, KY for $54.99.
