From the heart of Newport, Kentucky, New Riff Distilling introduces its Red Turkey Wheat Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a Bottled-in-Bond expression that celebrates the legacy of heirloom grains. Crafted with 70% corn, 25% Red Turkey Wheat, and 5% malted barley, this bourbon pays homage to 19th-century traditions while embracing New Riff’s modern craft. Aged for at least five years and bottled at 100 proof, it stands as a softer, sweeter counterpart to the distillery’s high-rye classics.

On the nose, warm aromas of orange marmalade, praline, and baked bread unfold, giving way to hints of clove and dark fruit. The palate is rich and lively—chewy layers of citrus zest and stewed cherries balanced with subtle sweetness and spice. Each sip finishes long and expressive, marked by nutty grains, bright citrus, and lingering dark fruit skins.

Red Turkey Wheat Bourbon captures the warmth and character of old Kentucky with a modern twist. Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water, it’s a whiskey that speaks softly but lingers boldly, crafted for those who savor authenticity in every pour.
