Ransom Whisky Americano

Ransom Spirits was founded in 1997 by Tad Seestedt in the heart of Oregon's Willamette Valley. The distillery's early focus was on crafting small-batch Grappa, eau-de-vie, and brandy, establishing a reputation for meticulous artisanal production. In 1999, Ransom expanded its operations into premium winemaking, leveraging the region's renowned terroir. The company took a significant step forward in 2007 by adopting grain-based distillation methods, strategically diversifying its portfolio to include gin, whiskey, and vodka. A landmark innovation came in 2010 when Ransom uniquely merged its winemaking and distilling expertise to produce its first batch of dry vermouth—an inventive expression that harmonizes both disciplines. Today, Ransom Spirits remains dedicated to creating exceptional craft spirits and wines with an unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and reverence for time-honored techniques.
