My wife and I took a tour recently and had a great time. Our tour guide, Grover, was very knowledgeable and had a wonderful personality. Having toured several distilleries on the Bourbon Trail, we were impressed by the things that made this new bourbon maker unique. We highly recommend you include New Riff when in the area, and if possible take one of Grover's tours.

When we visit the Newport Aquarium, we also enjoy walking around the mall and along the Ohio River. On warmer days, several restaurants have outdoor seating with beautiful views of the Cincinnati skyline and different boats on the river. We have enjoyed our meals at Brothers Bar Grill and Mitchell's.
