Company Profile (AI Text) Name: Renaissance Man Co Canonical URL: https://wefunder.com/renaissance.man.co-PRIVATE Updated at: 2026-06-02T05:01:03Z Tagline: Our discovery ages whiskey in weeks not years and creates superior flavor Elevator pitch: We sell a streamlined whiskey aging process that allows distillers to mature their whiskey in weeks rather than years. Or even someone at home to mature whatever they like, right in the bottle. We hope to be able to apply this process to our own whiskey by summer of 2022, and release our brand of high quality bourbon.

Have you started this process? It would be helpful to see a business plan and where the funds are being directed. I don't see where your curren... A: We will have a permit from the TTB later this year. If you would like to see our full business plan I would be more than happy to send that over through email. I would also like to direct you to the "Company FAQ" on this page above your comment. The $1.5M is not our current valuation. It is impossible to validate a valuation without sales and revenue. Being that we are in the seed funding stage, we chose a future Valuation cap of $1.5M. Meaning that when we do receive a market valuation for o... - Q: Having been involved in one of the most successful technology focused DSP in the industry, I don't feel you have enough industry knowledge or experience to be able to execute your business strategy. You are underestimating the cost to validate your process and putting to much ... A: We have already validated the process through our own experimentation and expert analysis of the flavor and profile of the whiskey effected by our process. This is not only applicable to freshly distilled whiskey but those that have been aging for years. For example our process turned a $7 whiskey into a phenomenal tasting whiskey. This statement was validated by a whiskey sommelier l, who gave great response and tasting notes to this $7 whiskey after our process. The spirits competitions are... - Q: When, roughly, do you expect to conduct the second crowdfunding round you mentioned in a response to Larry Weinberg? I'm intrigued by this opportunity but am not convinced by the pitch that there's enough track record yet to warrant investing. (Fully acknowledge that my hesita... A: We will be performing a second raise during mid to late summer after competition results. Mind you the Val Cap will be significantly higher. I am free and open to answer any questions you have in regard to our invention. - Q: Thanks for the quick response to my initial comment, Aaron. Where's the best place to email you to discuss further? Can understand that you may not want to get into specifics in a public forum. A: Email me at aaron@renmandistilling.com Go ahead and email me but if you’re up for it I feel phone calls are more productive. - Q: When do you imagine those of us (who don't live in Michigan) would be able to taste the end result, if all went according to plan? Unrelatedly - do you know anything about Lost Spirits? Though I think their tech is totally different, but they've been working on replicating whi... A: Later this year we may be able to find a way for you to be able to taste our bottle of "84." It is our competition line. A double Oak rendition of 8 weeks in one and another 4 weeks in new oak. According to our sales plan RENMAN will be available in more states than Michigan in 2023. I have never tasted Lost Spirits, they use laboratories to alter liquid to "taste like" heavily aged spirits. We have discovered a more efficient way to use wood and fire to actually make the spirit aged in weeks... Recent posts: - Federal Approval!
