OUR STORY
麹の先駆者
Pioneers of Koji in Québec
Discover the story of La Brasserie San-Ô, a culinary adventure born during the Covid-19 pandemic by Masum Rahman, Noriko and Yota Suzuki.
Our adventure began in the heart of Parc-Extension, in the kitchen of Indian restaurant. Yota's apprenticeship under a master saké brewer in Japan laid the foundations of our culinary vision.
SYMBOLISM & IDENTITY
山王
The mountain and the king
In 2021, we transformed into La Brasserie San-Ô, drawing inspiration from the Japanese characters 山 (San) and 王 (Ô), symbolising Mount Royal in Montréal.
Our logo harmoniously fuses the spirit of the mountain with the biological essence of our products. Rooted in Montréal, we craft koji with love.
