Henry DuYore’s Straight Bourbon Whiskey to be an ultra premium American Whiskey that fits within the boundaries of the Bourbon category: a mash bill of greater than 51% corn and an aging program of at east two years in new Bourbon barrels but with a greater than usual influence from the rye, and a liberal amount of barley to give greater viscosity and weight to the palate.

Distillery Information
Ransom Spirits was started by Tad Seestedt in 1997. Initially, the distillery made small amounts of grappa, eau de vie and brandy. In 1999, Ransom began the production of a number of small-batch fine wines, and In 2007 we took up the craft of grain-based spirits, adding gin, whiskey and vodka to the lineup. By 2010, we combined our crafts of winemaking and distilling to create our first Dry Vermouth.
