Desert Door Texas Sotol Oak Aged Texas Sotol

Spirits - Other | 50% ABV

Commercial Description:

‘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.

Our Oak Aged starts life as Original Texas Sotol - our clear spirit - which is then aged in virgin white oak barrels for around a year. 

Tasting Notes

On the nose, our Oak Aged is akin to a young whiskey, with pleasing notes of vanilla, cedar and caramel. Sipping reveals more vanilla, along with dried cherries and oak. The finish brings back caramel and a creamy smoothness like vanilla custard, with just a hint of eucalyptus.
