INFO
San Dimas legend goes back to when the Spaniards arrived to the central
valley of Oaxaca. A monk had a dream where he was told to distill the fermented juice from agave. The monastery attributed the dream to San Dimas and mezcal was born.

WHO WE ARE
SAN DIMAS STORY
Gerardo Linares has been part of the beverage industry for more than
20 years. He founded a vineyard in Chile more than 10 years ago but
his passion has been mezcal. He teamed up with Antonio Lopez, the
maestro mezcalero, to develop the best mezcal that could be hand
crafted. Mezcal is know for too much smoke and a difference in taste
in every batch. The reason is that the agave is not the right one or that
the process is not done accurately. This is where San Dimas is
born…
We use only mature piñas, eight years old, that will yield the right
amount of sugar. We cook the agave for 3 days but do not over cook
so that the right amount of smoke is in our mezcal. We crush with a
tahona to get the flavors that only the stone crushed agave gets. Then
we make sure that the fermentation, in oak vats, is done in one step.
Finally we distilled the mezcal and get only the core for our product.
WHAT SETS US APART
OAXACA CENTRAL VALLY AGAVE
San Dimas's Espadin Agave is grown in the red soil of the central
valley of Oaxaca. We wait until the agave is mature and the piña is
bigger than 250 pounds.
AGAVE COOKING
The piñas are cooked to perfection in a stone oven, only the right
amount of smoke will be present after cooking. We believe in balance
and the balance that some adds is balanced by the citrus and mineral
notes of our mezcal.
FERMENTATION
San Dimas is fermented in one step to guarantee the citrus and
cooked agave notes are present in every bottle.
DISTILLATION
San Dimas is distilled in small copper vats to extract the core of the
mezcal. We cut what are called heads and tails which contain the
toxins that make you feel sick the day after.
MADE TO PERFECTION
The combination of factors make San Dimas unique because of the
balance between cooked agave, medium smoke, citrus and mineral
notes.. This extra care is the factor that adds to our smoothness,
balance and unique taste.
MAESTRO MEZCALERO
Antonio Lopez is the son of Mario Lopez a maestro with more than 50
years of experience. Antonio was born in Matatlán Oaxaca, more than
25 years ago between agaves and mezcal. He has mezcal in his
blood and not because he drinks it, his passion is to take forward the
product and tradition that he loves. He worked in Tequila Jalisco and
learned all the techniques that the big guys use, his mission is to
adapt and keep the artisanal process with the best techniques from
other distillers. For San Dimas, Antonio is looking to incorporate his
knowledge with ideas and innovation from the wine world from
Gerardo Linares the brand master.
