high-altitude fermentation
Alpine sake brewery and izakaya in Méaudre, in the heart of the Vercors.
Born in the forests and mountains of the Vercors, Symbiose is a craft, sincere and exploratory project: brewing a mountain sake, mineral and singular, inspired by Japan and made to be tasted like wine.
First batch: due out late November.
mountain sake
Camargue rice, koji, yeasts and wine lees, with Vercors limestone water. The result: a mineral alpine sake with character.
Camargue rice
Polished and washed, it gives the sake its structure.
Koji
The culture that turns starch into sugar, grown on site.
Vercors limestone water
It brings minerality, the high-altitude signature.
