This distinctive expression carries the warmth of coastal California terroir into every sip, where Pacific fog meets golden grain fields under endless blue skies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBorn from a family tradition that began in 1935, when handcrafted spirits were acts of bold passion, Scotti's Original Springs honors that legacy from their distillery in Elk, California. Here, where redwood forests meet the Pacific coastline, they transform California-grown grains into whiskey that speaks of place—sun-warmed grain fields, morning fog rolling through valleys, and the patient rhythm of barrel aging in coastal air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Golden honey, toasted grain, California wildflower, gentle vanilla, morning fog minerality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sun-ripened corn sweetness, spiced rye backbone, caramel oak, coastal salt breeze, dried apricot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium length with warm grain, oak tannins, hint of Pacific mist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpirit Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45% (90 Proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAge Statement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 Years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistillery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScotti's Original Springs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElk, California\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMash Bill\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% California-grown corn, rye, and barley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBarrel Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBarrel Aged\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoastal evening sipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neat on the porch as Pacific fog rolls in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFamily gatherings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sharing stories over glasses of California heritage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFireside contemplation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slow sipping by the hearth with aged oak warmth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalifornia cuisine pairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alongside grilled meats and seasonal produce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Scotti's Original Springs Private Stock taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis California bourbon offers sun-warmed corn sweetness balanced by spiced rye backbone, with notes of honey, caramel oak, and a distinctive coastal minerality from Pacific fog influence.
