When New Riff Distilling began 12 years ago, its founders set out to make innovative whiskies that respected tradition. Between its first bourbons and ryes, Bottled-In-Bonds both, and its one-of-a-kind Sour Mash Kentucky Single Malt Whiskey, New Riff has created many dozens of one-off releases highlighting forgotten heirloom grains, distilling tweaks and aging techniques. Here’s what you’ll enjoy when master distiller Brian Sprance leads this insightful session:

• North Star welcome cocktail
• Light bites for noshing
• New Riff Bottled In Bond Bourbon—the original!
• New Riff Malted Rye Whiskey
• New Riff Balboa Rye Whiskey, made from heirloom grains
• New Riff Duet American Whiskey, a special release made in conjunction with Rhinegeist Brewery
• New 10-year Old Bourbon—the distillery’s oldest release to date

** And perhaps a surprise or two!
