Creador Arrives in New York State via Zev Rovine Selections
AUSTIN, Texas, NEW YORK, New York, October 16, 2025 — Creador Agave Spirits, renowned for its traditional ancestral agave distillates produced by José Alberto Pablo in Oaxaca, Mexico, is thrilled to announce its expansion into New York State with distribution via Zev Rovine Selections. Zev Rovine Selections, as part of its select agave program, and with a shared focus on transparency, storytelling, and tradition, is an ideal partner to introduce Creador to New York.
Launched in June of 2022, Creador Agave Spirits is committed to honoring the work of mezcaleros and preserving traditional methods. Each expression is meticulously crafted in Oaxaca by maestro palenquero José Alberto Pablo. Pit-roasted agaves are milled by hand, clay pot fermented, and twice-distilled, resulting in premium ancestral-style agave spirits. The all-clay fermentation and distillation process sets Creador expressions apart from many commercially available mezcals, and José Alberto Pablo’s dedication to quality is evident in every bottle. Creador Agave Spirits supports independent family producers, ensuring fair pricing, autonomy, and revenue sharing for the palenqueros.
Zev Rovine Selections began in 2007 with the aim of working closely with producers who farm organically and biodynamically with as little intervention as possible. Our spirits program reflects our philosophy of respecting tradition, celebrating innovation, and honoring the cultural roots of distillation. Much like our approach to wine, we prioritize spirits born of intentional agriculture, cultural integrity, and natural processes. We seek out both ancestral distillates and groundbreaking creations, ensuring that each bottle we source tells a story of its origin, craftsmanship, and the humanity behind it. By centering biodiversity, organic practices, and natural fermentation, we uphold the principles outlined in the Natural Booze Manifesto, offering spirits that embody transparency and authenticity.
