Description

Proof: 100 Age Statement: Four Years. The New Riff Backsetter™ series offers profound depth and complexity, with a unique smoky twist on whiskey flavor. This rye whiskey was crafted using backset from peated malted barley in the mashing of their standard rye recipe, resulting in a hauntingly unique smoky flavor balanced with classic rye spice. It is aged at least four years in new oak barrels and bottled in bond without chill filtration.
