For this limited release, New Riff used their traditional bourbon mashbill and a backset collected from a distillation of peat-smoked malted barley. The end result is a bourbon that tastes like it was barrel-aged in a used scotch barrel like High West Campfire was. It noses like a scotch yet has a distinctly bourbon palate. It’s great to see New Riff experimenting and innovating on what it means to be a bourbon.
