About Ghost Ship Whiskey:

Ghost Ship Whiskey is a line of spirits produced by Cleveland Distillery (not to be confused with Cleveland Whiskey), a craft producer based in Lakewood, Ohio. The brand is known for its distinctive nautical-themed labels and its use of non-traditional aging methods.

Product Varieties

The Ghost Ship line primarily consists of two core expressions:

• Ghost Ship Corn Whiskey: An unaged or lightly aged spirit featuring a 100% corn grain bill. It is 80 proof (40% ABV) and described as having subtle nuances of spice and caramel corn with a hint of candy corn on the palate.
• Ghost Ship Aged Whiskey: Also bottled at 80 proof, this version undergoes a maturation process to develop a smoother profile compared to the raw corn whiskey.

   

The "Marvelous Maple" Edition

Production Philosophy

The distillery often utilizes Pressure Aging™ technology, which uses varying pressure to force the spirit in and out of the wood's pores, accelerating the extraction of flavors that would typically take years in a traditional barrel. While this innovation allows for unique wood finishes like sugar maple, some enthusiasts note it can result in a "younger" or "unfinished" taste compared to slow-aged spirits.
