Dixeebe San Martinero

Verdict

Dixeebe keeps delivering the wild-agave bottles other producers talk about making. Gregorio Hernández's San Martinero is built the way good karwinskii ought to be, unsweet, mineral-forward, and confident at 50% in a way most commercial bottles cannot manage. Track it like you'd track a individual-maestro Real Minero.

Tasting notes

Nose: Wet slate. Then cucumber skin, yellow flowers, a thread of green banana

Palate: Concentrated and cool, the karwinskii vegetal lift held at the front by 50% ABV, then a slow spread of river-stone mineral and unsweetened melon through the mid

Finish: Saline, faintly herbal. Stays long

The bottom line

Hunt it if you care about karwinskii
