Terroir / story

Thai rice varieties · Sato craft

Devanom began in 2014 with family craft, focused on making Sato (traditional rice wine) from Thai ingredients. The rice comes from regions across the country: Kiaw Ngoo from Chiang Rai, Luem Pua from Sakon Nakhon, jasmine rice from Kanchanaburi, and Sangyod from Phatthalung (GI).

Sato is Thai traditional rice wine, not sake: sticky rice is soaked and steamed, then fermented with luk pang (natural moulds and yeasts). Outwardly the brand is consistently called Sato or Thai traditional rice wine.
