Ghost Vodka is distilled in the picturesque surroundings of the British countryside. In Victorian times, an old salt depot occupied the site where our distillery stands today.
Rumours had it that whilst the distillery was being built the workers were tormented by all kinds of unexplained happenings at night time they were disturbed by strange howls and what sounded like faint screams, rapping at the windows and eerie shadows flitting about outside.
Things would be knocked off the side in their living quarters, windows would fly open for no reason and they would feel something mysterious brush past them where they lay terrified in their beds.
Naturally this scared the poor workers out of their minds and many didn’t stay on the job very long! Strangely after the opening no-one working there was ever troubled by screams or howls, mysterious banging windows and doors or sinister shadows again.
At the night all to be heard was a peaceful country wind rustling through the trees, the odd creaks and cranks from the copper pot stills, a nice bright moon and the odd glass (or bottle) of vodka in the evening.
It turned out that the real spirit was Ghost Vodka.
Nose: Fruity aromas, perhaps down to the fact that it's made with British sugar beet instead of wheat or spuds.
Palate: Bright, smooth and warm with a touch of spice and a long, smooth finish with unusual and very pleasant flavours of fennel, leather, caramel and vanilla.
Finish: A great combination of the end of the nose and palate with fruity aromas and warming spice continuing.
