{"product_id":"dsp-ca-162-straight-vodka","title":"DSP CA 162 Straight Vodka","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDSP CA 162 Straight Vodka is an 80-proof Mendocino craft vodka — a blend of wheat vodka and vodka distilled from aromatic wine (Riesling and Viognier), first distilled through the antique Germain-Robin Cognac still and then again in a Holstein pot still. The nose carries both the wheat and grape bases with notes of butterscotch, vanilla, white grape, and orange blossom; the palate is light, slightly sweet, and floral with vanilla, wheat grain, and orange blossom; the finish is slightly dry with delicate spice.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDSP CA 162 takes its name from the registration number of the original federal license obtained by Germain-Robin for its first distillery in 1982, on Eagle Rock Ranch west of Ukiah — the same Ranch distillery that, alongside Jorg Rupf’s St. George Spirits, was one of the first small distilleries licensed since Prohibition in 1919. The vodka comes from a collaboration between Ansley Coale of Craft Distillers (Germain-Robin co-founder) and Crispin Cain of Tamar Distillery; Crispin’s son Devin Cain led the fruit infusions through 2013, with first bottlings released in January 2014. The portfolio is built around this Straight vodka plus three fruit-infused expressions named with Latin nomenclature — Citrus Reticulata var. Sunshine (tangerines and tangelos), Citrus Medica var. Sarcodactylis (Buddha’s hand citrons), and Citrus Hystrix (Malaysian limes and leaves) — with fruit sourced from John Kirkpatrick’s orchards in Exeter, Tulare County, California.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Butterscotch, vanilla, white grape, orange blossom\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light, slightly sweet, floral — vanilla, wheat grain, orange blossom\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slightly dry with delicate spice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e DSP CA 162 (Ansley Coale, Craft Distillers + Crispin \u0026amp; Devin Cain, Tamar Distillery — Mendocino County, California)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Craft Vodka — wheat + aromatic-wine grape blend\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antique Germain-Robin Cognac still, then Holstein pot still\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vodka\"\u003evodka at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DSP CA 162","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42901935751239,"sku":"Y 199002","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/dsp-ca-162-straight-vodka_b4f5d047-19fc-4b72-83a3-d529a3c57fcb.jpg?v=1782421706","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/dsp-ca-162-straight-vodka","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
