New Riff 6 year old Sherry Finished Barrel Proof, 55.95%

A rare cask-finished whiskey in the New Riff portfolio, this 100% malted rye is brooding on the nose, with restrained dark fruit, a hint of sherry cask funk, and a whisper of peppery spice. The palate is more welcoming, with raisins, dried cranberries, and cooked apple backed by mint tea, overripe berries, and muted baking spices. The finish is long, with roasted grain, dried spices, and pepper.
