High N’ Wicked Kentucky Straight Rye Witches’ Tree

Unlock the enchanting spirit of High N’ Wicked Kentucky Straight Rye Witches’ Tree, a rye whiskey meticulously crafted for those who appreciate bold flavors and masterful complexity. Distilled at New Riff Distilling in Newport, Kentucky, this exceptional rye captures the perfect harmony of tradition and innovation with a mash bill of 91% rye and 9% malted barley from Brooks Grains in Indiana.

The aging process is a story in itself, with a blend of 2-, 3-, and 4-year whiskies, each maturing in char #4 barrels sourced from Independent Stave Company in Missouri. These “alligator char” barrels, combined with limestone-rich water, give the whiskey its incredible depth and character. On the nose, you’ll find an evolving bouquet of walnut skin, citrus buttercream, and dried fruits like apricot and dates, with a hint of torched cinnamon and cedar. The palate enchants with layers of oatmeal, subtle heat, and a touch of peppermint bark, leaving a finish that’s both refreshing and complex.

Carefully distilled using stainless steel, open-top sour mash fermentation and a copper column still with a continuous doubler, High N’ Wicked Witches’ Tree honors the artistry of whiskey-making. Ideal for sipping neat, over a single rock, or in an indulgent whiskey cocktail, this rye whiskey elevates every occasion with its refined yet adventurous profile. With every pour, you’ll savor the perfect balance of tradition, expertise, and flavor innovation.
