Ransom Spirits Ransom Dry Gin

Ransom Spirits Ransom Dry Gin is a distinctive American gin that aims to bridge the gap between traditional Dutch genevers and contemporary dry gins. Here's what makes it notable:  

Production:

• Unique Base: It starts with a base wort of malted barley and rye, which is mashed and fermented at the distillery. This grain-forward base distinguishes it from many gins that use a neutral grain spirit and nods to the genever style.  
• Botanical Infusion: Botanicals are infused into a corn-based spirit.   
• Distillation: The gin is distilled in a direct-fired alembic pot still, a traditional method that helps retain maximum aromatics, flavor, and body.   
• Oregon Terroir: The botanicals are chosen with tradition in mind but also include elements that reflect the Oregon terroir, such as Oregon Marionberries and local hops. Other botanicals include juniper, caraway, and anise.   

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Opens with ethereal aromatics of hops and white flowers, set off by bass notes of fresh marionberry and juniper berries. Some detect a new-make whiskey aroma reminiscent of genever.   
• Palate: Rich and silky texture with malt flavors punctuated by citrus and the piquancy of cardamom and coriander. The spices are often highlighted. The Oregon Marionberries contribute a subtle, fruity sweetness.   
• Finish: Supple and powerful, with the viscosity and richness of malt carrying clean, focused botanicals. It finishes with lingering spice and slightly bitter root notes, sometimes with a touch of alcohol heat.   

Awards and Recognition:

Ransom Dry Gin has received several accolades, including:

• Washington Cup Winner.   
• Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.   
• Gold Medal at the American Craft Spirits Association Judging.   
• 93 Points from the Beverage Testing Institute.   
• 90 Points from the Ultimate Beverage Challenge.   
• 4 Stars from BevX.   
• 4 Stars (Highly Recommended) from F. Paul Pacult's Spirit Journal.   

Overall Impression:

Ransom Dry Gin is a highly aromatic gin that successfully blends the characteristics of Dutch genevers with the more intense botanical infusion of dry gins. The malted barley and rye base gives it a unique richness and depth, while the inclusion of Marionberries and hops adds a distinct Oregon character. It's considered excellent for sipping neat and works well in classic cocktails like a Gin & Tonic, Collins, or Bramble, as well as in more traditional Dutch serves like a Kopstoot (served with a beer chaser).
