Notes of hazelnut and rye loaf with creamy malt aromas, balanced by crystal malt, demerara sugar, and sweet earth on the palate. Finishes with an elegant flourish of viscosity and vibrant rye and malt.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRansom Spirits was started by Tad Seestedt in 1997, initially producing grappa, eau de vie, and brandy. Grain spirits joined the lineup in 2007. Ransom Farms in the Willamette Valley has been certified organic since 2011, with barley grown on-site since 2008. Distillation is by taste and smell rather than computers, in a traditional alembic French still that retains greater aromatic intensity from the source grains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm, toasty hazelnut and rye loaf, underpinned by creamy malt\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crystal malt, demerara sugar, sweet earth — lively but giving, balanced between grain and barrel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elegant flourish of viscosity with vibrant rye and malt\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ransom Wine Co. \u0026amp; Spirits, Sheridan, Willamette Valley, Oregon (est. 1997)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e American Grain Whiskey — WhipperSnapper Oregon Spirit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-hammered French alembic pot still, direct-fired\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/american-whiskey\"\u003eAmerican whiskey at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ransom Wine Co \u0026 Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42904211062855,"sku":"410019","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/WhipperSnapps.jpg?v=1782423188","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/ransom-wine-co-distillery-whippersnapper-oregon-spirit-whiskey","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
