New Riff’s Sour Mash Single Malt Whiskey
New Riff’s Sour Mash Single Malt Whiskey is a provocative new riff on the hallowed traditions of malted barley. Comprised of up to six different mashbills, and slowly matured in a multiplicity of cask types, this unprecedented whiskey welds Old World inspiration to Kentucky’s sour mash technique. Distilled in our column beer still and doubler, it weaves a wealth of malty flavors into oaken age: a bold new concept in the time-honored Kentucky whiskey regimen. The six mashbills include: · 100% Maris Otter, a classic British ale malt · 100% Golden Promise, a classic Scotch whisky malt · Barleywine-style, after high gravity, heavy bodied barleywine ales · Belgian quadrupel-style, in the fashion of rich, mellow Trappist ales · 100% Scottish peated barley malt, heavily smoked and pungent · 100% Chevallier Heirloom malted barley, an 1820s-vintage English variety
