They are all ghost stories. Every story we share over a glass of whiskey. Each anecdote told while sharing this 4-grain whiskey gets carved into the Ghostwood tree and becomes a part of its legend. It soaks up a part of you and seeps into the roots and hearty Montana soil. One glass and the darkness becomes less foreboding and beckons you to live beyond the firelight.
Camping alone in the woods while growing up, your imagination could have a tendency to run away from you. Before you blazes a warm, snapping fire, but beyond that light there is darkness… and it’s holding its breath.
The feeling of being alone against the mysteries of the world is what led me to create Ghostwood. This recipe was inspired by-and for-that world, when the remnants of summer have given way to the bracing turn of winter and darkness lurks just over your firelit shoulders, causing you to smile with a hidden warmth.
