DARK DOOR SPIRITS TAMPA, FL Every distillery has an origin story. Even the monolith, Buffalo Trace, had humble beginnings as a small warehouse seated on a new town on the Kentucky River. Though, it seems as of late, many of those origin stories have been skewed by a haze of misleading marketing and tricky phrases. Many of these companies will try their hardest to mask the humbleness of their own beginnings rather than embrace them in a bid to appear larger than life from the start. But, one distillery we've seen in Tampa, FL peaked our interest and shared our passion for transparency and uniqueness. They decided to do it themselves from the start. A tall order and a difficult challenge to meet, and yet, they've somehow found a way to do it. Maybe its skill with a pinch of luck, or maybe there's more to the "dark door" than just the name? Either way, it's a distillery filled with passionate people with their eyes pointed towards innovation.
