Desert Door Texas Sotol Oak Aged

Desert Door Texas Sotol Oak Aged 100 Proof embodies the essence of the West Texas desert, where our founders first encountered the remarkable Sotol plant. This distinctive spiky succulent, utilized by Indigenous communities for tools, food, and fermented beverages centuries ago, serves as the foundation for our exceptional spirit.

OAK-AGED CRAFTSMANSHIP

To craft our Oak-Aged Texas Sotol, we age our Original Texas Sotol in new white oak barrels for approximately a year. This meticulous process imparts a unique character and depth to our spirit, creating a refined and distinguished expression.

SUSTAINABLE WILD-HARVESTING

Both the name of our spirit and the plant it originates from, "Sotol" represents our commitment to sustainability. We exclusively wild-harvest all our Sotol from ranches across Texas, abstaining from farming or cultivation practices. This sustainable approach not only avoids monocropping but also contributes to the conservation of crucial resources such as land and water. Desert Door Texas Sotol Gold 100 Proof stands as a testament to our dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and environmental responsibility.

TASTING NOTES

While it’s not an agave spirit, our Desert Door Original is a lot like a premium tequila on the nose, with bright notes of vanilla and green grass. But here the similarities end. Tasting reveals flavors like toffee, mint, and orange zest. The finish is custard-smooth - smoother than tequila - with subtle hints of sage.
