New Riff Distillery (Newport, KY) WF0061

As we continue to celebrate the release of Whiskey Lore's Travel Guide to Experiencing Kentucky Bourbon: Second Edition, time to visit one of the new breed of distilleries in Kentucky. As one of the few independent distilleries of size in the state, still family-owned, New Riff has found a way to spread their whiskey nearly coast-to-coast.

As those beautiful and uniquely colored bottles make their way across the country, it is time to introduce you to the brand, its history, and the story behind this name - New Riff - with Mollie Lewis, President of the company.
