Since our founding in 2014 we’ve focused on making great whiskey as a vehicle for good. Our inaugural Headliner release exemplifies this mission - sampling our full distilling catalog to create a supergroup of whiskeys. This year's Headliner is anchored by our first ever bourbon whiskey, now ten years old.
The blend offers a harmonious mix of rye spice, barrel-aged warmth, and hints of dark fruit. With proceeds from each bottle benefiting local charities, Headliner truly takes center stage.
45% 10 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey
20% 9 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey
30% 9 Year Old Rye Whiskey
5% 7 Year Old Single Malt Whiskey
Bottled at Barrel Proof Without Chill Filtration
Retail Price: $250
We are proud to donate half of the proceeds from every bottle of Headliner to charitable organizations in the Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati area - Brighton Center, Green Umbrella and Horizon Community Funds.
Each bottle of Headliner is individually numbered and features a hand-screen printed label reminiscent of a 1970’s concert poster. Every purchase will also include a limited-edition 18x24 hand-screen-printed poster.
To ensure everyone has a fair chance to purchase this extremely limited-edition release, we are instituting a bottle lottery. Each lottery entry is $5, which will be entirely donated to our charitable partners. Each entry will also include a $5 gift certificate that is valid at The Aquifer Tasting Room during our anniversary celebrations July 11-21, 2024.
The bottle lottery will close at 11:59PM EST on Sunday, July 7
Lottery winners will be notified via email on Monday, July 8
Bottles must be fully paid for by 11:59 PM EST on Wednesday, July 10
Bottles may be picked up beginning on Thursday, July 11

The Spring 2024 Whiskey Club Release is here!
Take a trip back in time with Ol’ New Riff Bourbon and Rye.
What if New Riff existed 120 years ago? What would our whiskey taste like? These releases seek to recover lost histories and recipes for the modern era, truly putting a New Riff on an Old Tradition.
Our whiskey makers examined every facet of the production process and tweaked the dials back to the gilded age when Greater Cincinnati ruled the whiskey market. 19th century style barrels were produced without modern kiln-drying, and heirloom grains including Blue Clarage and Yellow Leaming corn, along with our acclaimed Balboa Rye were mashed into classic bourbon and rye recipes to deliver rare flavors into the 21st Century.
These limited-edition releases will be available through the New Riff Whiskey Club beginning Thursday, May 23rd at 11:00 AM.
$54.99 each. Limit 1 bottle of each expression per person. Pick up in store only. No shipping
