We LOVED doing a full tour here at New Riff & Eric was an awesome tour guide. We've done the entire KBT and New Riff's tour/campus is a top 5 for us. Love that you get to sample during the tour, makes it unique from the others where you have a guided tasting at the end.

New Riff is awesome. From the top down everyone there is a class act and genuinely kind heart and wholesome. The quality of the hospitality, bar none. The whiskey itself...stands out above so many in the game. The malted rye, the BIB, and the special releases immediately crushable. So good and I can't say enough.

Love New Riff... takes distilling to another level. The Aquifer tasting bar upstairs is beautiful! The bar tenders are top notch.

Great tour of the distillery. Love the fact that they use ear buds to help hear everything that is explained during the tour. Also, enjoyed doing the tastings during the tour is a great bonus.

Zero, having a bourbon tasting tonight with Jim Beam,, Bulleit, Four roses, Buffalo trace, Eagle rare, ElijahCraig, Woodford Reserve.
Consensus, New Riff has to be the worst tasting thing I've ever put in my mouth... do not swallow!!!

New Riff was the unanimous favorite tour of our brief Bourbon Trail trip. Dan was an incredibly knowledgeable, fun, and courteous tour guide. The facility is a great size as you get to see the actual cooking and distilling process up close and personal - you can even taste the mash. The new bar space is beautiful with a great outdoor area as well. Even the non-bourbon fans in our group had a great time. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing experience at New Riff Distillery today! Our tour guide, Grover, was fantastic—extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the craft. He walked us through the entire distilling process, sharing fascinating details about their commitment to quality and innovation. The tasting was top-notch, with a great selection of bourbons and ryes to sample. If you’re a bourbon lover (or just curious about the process), this tour is a must! Highly recommend!

Excellent distillery. I love the whiskey they're coming out with. The tasting room/bar upstairs is an awesome space and they have a good selection of cocktails, flights, etc so you can try a selection of what they have.
