OUR BREWERY PARTNER
- NOGUCHI NAOHIKO
- KNOWN AS “THE GOD OF SAKE,” HE DEDICATED MORE THAN SEVEN DECADES TO REFINING HIS CRAFT, ARRIVING AT HIS OWN REMOTE MOUNTAIN BREWERY IN ISHIKAWA. WHEN RÉGIS CAMUS MET NOGUCHI-SAN, MASTERS FROM TWO DIFFERENT WORLDS CAME TOGETHER IN A SHARED PURSUIT OF PERFECTION, GIVING LIFE TO PRESTIGE I
220 YEARS OF ARITA PORCELAIN MASTERY
- AN UNPRECEDENTED EXPRESSION OF ARTISANSHIP AND ELEGANCE. EACH BOTTLE CAPTURES THE SPIRIT OF ELEVATED PLEASURE, CREATED FOR TRUE CONNOISSEURS SEEKING RARITY. EACH ARITA PORCELAIN BOTTLE IS THE RESULT OF METICULOUS HANDCRAFTING, ITS INTRICATE FORM DEFYING THE NOTION OF MASS PRODUCTION.
RÉGIS CAMUS’S TIME-HONORED ASSEMBLAGE, PRECISE, LAYERED, AND DEEPLY ARTISANAL, ALLOWS FOR ONLY THE MOST LIMITED CREATION.
