What is HEAVENSAKE

HEAVENSAKE is a 100% Japanese-made premium sake created by blending the sensibilities of Regis Camus, Cellar Master of Champagne, with Japanese breweries. Through assemblage, the individuality of rice, water, yeast, and brewery is layered, bringing a quiet depth to the aroma, texture, and aftertaste. Respect for tradition and French sensibility resonate elegantly in every glass.
