Cody Roberts is infusing the scenic town of Marathon with a new flavor through his venture, Desert Ghost Distilling Company. Positioned against the stunning backdrop where the desert meets the horizon, the distillery aims to embody the spirit of the region while adding a fresh, vibrant energy to the local community.
Located in the historic Los Muertos building next to Gage Spa, Desert Ghost Distilling is setting itself apart by focusing on creating a local experience rather than mass distribution.
The distillery features a tasting room where visitors can enjoy handcrafted mixed drinks, appetizers, and charcuterie boards that showcase traditional meats, smoked cheeses, and wild game. Roberts is enthusiastic about the future, revealing plans to expand offerings to include dinner and a broader range of spirits.
Roberts is committed to collaboration within the community, looking to work with local artisans and producers to craft unique products. Desert Ghost Distilling is more than a distillery; it’s a new cornerstone in Marathon’s vibrant community, promising to attract both locals and visitors to experience the authentic tastes of Texas.
