You’ve stumbled upon Desert Door.
We’re not a tequila and not a mezcal.
But something else altogether - Texas Sotol.
Welcome to the untamed spirit of the Texas desert, encapsulated in every drop of Desert Door Texas Sotol Original. Our story begins amidst the rugged landscapes and arid beauty of West Texas, where the sotol plant thrives in the unforgiving terrain. With a heritage deeply rooted in tradition and an unquenchable thirst for adventure, we've crafted a spirit that embodies the essence of the wild west.
Explore the heart of Texas through the unique flavors of our original sotol, a bold and distinctive expression that pays homage to the land, culture, and pioneering spirit that defines our home. Join us on a journey as we unlock the secrets of the desert, one sip at a time.
‘Sotol’ is both the name of our unique spirit and the plant we make it from. The sotol plant is not an agave but a distinct and separate species. Which means Desert Door is not in fact a tequila. So, If we’re not a tequila what are we? Imagine if tequila had a smoother, more flavorful cousin - that’s Desert Door.
To see for yourself how we turn a desert plant into a complex, flavorful spirit, be sure to book a tour of our distillery in Driftwood. All tours can be booked through Tock at this time. We offer tours on Saturday from 1-4 and Sunday 1-3.
