Outer quote mark This topaz-hued Old Tom is sweetened with organic honey. The bold, sweet aroma suggests maple syrup, almond and allspice, while the palate opens with peppery heat, leading into flashes of juniper, citrus and cardamom. Mix into Martinez variations. (KN) Inner quote mark (3/2023)

K&L Notes

Ransom Spirits is a one-man show, an artisanal distillery in Sheridan, Oregon, run by Tad Seestedt. His Old Tom gin is made on an alembic pot still, and is a historically accurate replication of what people were drinking in the 1800s during the golden age of American cocktails (in fact, cocktail historian David Wondrich collaborated on the project). It has just a touch of sweetness, a golden amber color, and is made from malted barley and corn. One of the most fun products we've played with this year, it is versatile, but classically styled. A must for any serious mixer. Gold medal winner from International Review of Spirits, and 93 points from Beverage Tasting Institute: "Pale amber pink color. Aromas of sweet berry and citrus pastry, floral hops, honey and spice follow through on a soft,silky entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body with wintermint, mango custard, dried lavender, and herbal juniper and sweet spices on the gentle polished finish. Very nice." Make the original Martinez cocktail with this classic Old Tom gin!

United States

- When people consider domestic wine, they normally think about the state of California. The fine viticultural Region within California, including the Napa Valley, Sonoma, Santa Cruz Mountains, Mendocino and Santa Barbara, are capable of growing grapes of world-class quality. But there's plenty of fabulous wine coming from other states, too. Oregon, Washington and New York are also causing eyebrows (and glassware) to be raised around the world.

Sub-Region:

Oregon

- Highly touted for its Pinot Noirs, Oregon is part of the up-and-coming winemaking industry in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Most of Oregon is directly affected by the climate coming off of the Pacific Ocean, giving it mild winters and wet summers. This makes it a difficult place to ripen grapes, but some say that the harder grapes have to struggle, the more complex they will turn out to be. Chardonnay and Pinot Gris are two important and successful grapes grown in Oregon.
