Sollos, an agave spirit brand owned by Blue Sky Drinks Co, will open a cellar door in late August 2026 at its 1,000 acre farm near Airlie Beach in the Whitsundays, Queensland, the company says.

The Spirits Business reported that the cellar door sits beside a property Blue Sky Drinks describes as the world's largest agave farm outside Mexico, planted with 580,000 Blue Weber agave, and that visitors will be offered a farm-to-glass experience at the North Queensland estate.

What the cellar door will pour

Sollos is being marketed as Australia's first single estate agave spirit, built around four expressions: a Whitsundays Blanco, Reposado and Añejo, plus a Distiller's Release Reposado, according to trade coverage from The Spirits Business. Blue Sky Drinks has not published pricing or a firm opening date beyond the late August window.

How this farm got here

The Whitsundays agave project did not start with Sollos. Trade and regional press reported that Top Shelf International, then an ASX-listed spirits company, planted the estate, previously known as the Eden Lassie farm between Airlie Beach and Bowen, and by 2021 was floating plans for a 25 million dollar distillery and visitor centre on the site, according to SmartCompany. That farm was reported to hold more than 600,000 agave tequilana plants across 374 hectares by the time Top Shelf launched its first agave brand, Act of Treason, on January 17, 2024, per Food & Drink Business and the North Queensland Register.

Top Shelf International has since become part of Blue Sky Drinks Co following a merger with Gravity Drinks Co, the maker of the Gravity RTD line. Just Drinks and Inside FMCG both reported the combined company appointed Paul Slaughter as chief executive in July 2026, a role he takes after more than 20 years in Australian food, beverage and consumer goods, including chief executive stints at Harvest Road Group and Mrs Mac's. Blue Sky Drinks founder and chairman Mick Spencer told Inside FMCG the business had cut 10 million dollars from its cost base and lifted active outlets by 50 percent in the six months since the merger.

Separately, Mackay Whitsunday Life reported that Spencer told a Bowen Collinsville Enterprise business breakfast in early July that an entity called the Australian Agave Project had acquired the farm the previous year and was preparing the Sollos launch and its cellar door, indicating a change of ownership structure around the estate ahead of the rebrand.

What happens to Act of Treason

Just Drinks reported that when Blue Sky Drinks acquired Top Shelf International, it also acquired the Act of Treason agave brand, and noted the outlet had asked the company for details on the brand's status without a public answer at time of writing. It remains unclear whether Act of Treason will continue alongside Sollos, be discontinued, or be folded into the new brand from the same estate.

What this means

What is not yet documented is how the finished Sollos spirits will be made, cask by cask, or whether independent testing will ever weigh in on their purity. Until bottles reach an outside panel, claims about the estate and the category remain the company's own.
