Pros

  • New Riff has been climbing high on my list of favorite distilleries. They may not have a lucrative LE like most of the legacies, but they are one of the kings of the mid-tier, in my opinion.
  • New Riff makes some great whiskey, but their bottles are some of the very best in the business.
  • I love New Riff stuff and had no idea this was coming back. It's on my short list now if it eventually goes out for a wider release.
  • New Riff always has a great value proposition, one of the best bangs for your buck in bourbon...
  • Bummed I missed this, I love New Riff

Cons

  • Live close, so see/drink a lot of New Riff. I think overall most their stuff is about a 6, fine if not a little overpriced bc it’s usually younger, but expected from a smaller distillery.

I love New Riff, however it appears this limited run leaves a lot to be desired.

Currently it would have to be one of the Holladay BiBs or something from New Riff.

This sounds awesome. New Riff is definitely on my list to try next, even if these exclusive versions aren't available!

New Riff has not disappointed me yet. Loving each offering I’ve had so far.
