Our guests are Régis Camus and Carl Hirschmann, co-founders of Heavensake https://www.heavensake.com/, which was founded in 2016.   Heavensake is truly unique.  It is the first sake producer that introduced the blending (assemblage) technique to the traditional sake-making process.  The mastermind behind Heavensake is Régis Camus who led the renowned Champagne House Piper-Heidsieck as the Chef de Cave for 28 years.  Another key point of Heavensake is that Régis and Carl and their team work closely with traditional sake brewers.   In this episode, we will discuss how the blending techniques that are used in Champagne production work in sake brewing, how its collaborations with top traditional sake breweries inspire the sake industry overall,  and much, much more!!!
