New Riff is famous both for their flagship bourbon and rye whiskeys and the fantastic out-of-the-box specialties. Balboa Rye is one of the first such specialties, and they used Charles Fogg's rare heirloom Balboa rye (dating back to the 1930s!) to make it as spectacular as possible. New Riff Balboa Rye is a bottled-in-bond, no-chill filtration offering matured for at least four years and bottled at 100 proof. It hides surprising notes, and you'll know off the bat you're sipping on a unique whiskey.

About Rye
As American as the bald eagle, rye whiskey was first brewed in the American Northeast in the 1600s. Even George Washington distilled it after leaving the Oval Office, so there’s no way of denying its origin. It’s distinguished from bourbon for its original and unique spicy notes.
By law, rye whiskey must be made from at least 51% rye grain, aged in new and charred oak barrels for at least two years, and bottled at no more than 62,5% ABV.
The balanced fruity and honeyed nose introduces us to a full-bodied palate with notes of citrus, sweet mint, and raspberries. A deluge of herbs, wildflowers, and rye spices follows before it embraces your taste buds with a lingering fruity and oaky finish.
