Creador Lumbre + Espadin
Creador Lumbre + Espadin is a destilado de agave ensamble from San Bernardo Mixtepec, Oaxaca. Producer José Alberto Pablo mills Angustifolia agave by hand for this blend. 3 percent abv. Batch JAEN1122 presents sweet citrus, clay, and black pepper on the nose. The palate delivers soft red berries, milk chocolate mousse, and brown sugar with slight viscosity. Earthy warmth and savory lemongrass lead to a long finish of preserved lemon and sweet mango cream. This blend balances the intensity of Lumbre with the rounded sweetness of Espadin for a layered profile.

About the Brand
Creador Agave Spirits seeks out independent family producers who have little to no representation outside of their local markets – producers who want to make a transition to full-time production of destilado and need help getting their agave spirits to market. Creador strives to support palenqueros and their communities by providing autonomy for the producers, as well as fair pricing. The company does not contractually obligate producers, nor negotiate price – what the palenqueros ask, they pay, and the company will advise if they think the spirits are underpriced. Creador profit-shares with the producers, providing transparency into the complex economics of selling spirits into the tiered alcohol-distribution systems prevalent in the US. Creador translates to “creator” and is an homage to the artisan creators of agave spirits, and a tribute to the creators and makers in us all. De la mano y el corazón – from the hand and the heart. You can now order Creador directly to your door.
