Embrace the chill with a bourbon built for the season. New Riff Winter Whiskey, available now at Nestor Liquor, is a daringly different Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey inspired by the rich, dark flavors of a chocolate oatmeal stout. Crafted with a unique mash bill that replaces the traditional rye content with malted oats and chocolate malt, this spirit offers a texture and profile unlike anything else on the shelf.
Adhering to the highest standards of quality, this release is Bottled in Bond and aged for at least 4 years. It is bottled at 100 Proof (50% ABV) without chill filtration to preserve the thick, creamy mouthfeel created by the oats. The result is a "drinking bourbon"—robust, chewy, and perfect for sipping by the fire on a long winter night.
