About the brewery : Azerou Saké is a French brewery based in Cabestany. We owe it to Maeva Delaruelle and Johan Ramsayer.
Together, they discovered sake in 2014 when they tasted a Tatenokawa, and it was love at first sight! Intrigued by the finesse of the product and its very particular microbiology, Johan made his very first sake brew at home in 2014. During a sake tasting at a wine shop, they had the chance to have their home-made sake tasted by Japanese producers and importers, who complimented them on its quality. This positive feedback sparked the idea of doing "a bit more" than home brewing and, in 2017, the Azerou Saké project was born. In July 2022, after 5 years of experimental brewing, the project finally came to fruition when they moved into their new premises in Cabestany and began producing sake in November 2022.
However, their fascination with sake hasn't driven them away from France - they're in love with their region! That's why their sakes are made from local ingredients: rice from the Camargue and spring water from the Pyrenees.

Detail tasting notes : The nose reveals fruity aromas, mainly of melon, pear and banana. On the palate, we also enjoy a fruity body, this time combined with the slightly milky, toasty rice notes that are the hallmark of Kimoto sakes.

Serving suggestions : A perfect match for a platter of shellfish or white fish.
