About Kazaisu

Founded by Deborah Cox and Lascelles Stephens during the global pandemic that pulled us apart, they realized our utter dependence on the human connection and how crucial it is to nurture and bond. Reflecting on the places they’d been, the people they’d had the opportunity to meet, and the irreplaceable time spent with family over a glass of wine.

Deborah is now excited to honor her connection with fans and friends alike with KAZAISU (Ka-Zy-Sue), Rosé, and Blanc wines that she hopes will sit on tables at family gatherings, dinners with friends, reunions, and celebrations of everyday life.

A letter from Deborah:

Throughout my travels, I developed a passion for the many cultures and food I was fortunate to discover. I wanted to distill all those experiences and sensations into one bottle.

Enjoying a glass of wine is one of the best ways to explore a new environment, meet people, and forge connections. I wanted to create something that would allow me to share those moments with my family, friends, and people I had yet to meet.

When we started our wine company, we prioritized creating a clean, pure, and enjoyable organic wine with an exquisite taste. It was also essential that the packaging be sustainable and that the vineyard practice organic and bio-diverse farming.

Our bottle uses a glass stopper rather than cork, and its unique design attracts the eye and lends itself to further use, perhaps as a vase, water bottle, or centerpiece.

The dragonfly on the bottle is a creature of grace and elegance that signifies the delicacy, lightness, and joy within.

The name itself betokens family, friendship, and love. KAZAISU (Ka-Zy-Sue) combines the names of my three children: Kaila, Isaiah, and Sumayah.

Get ready to indulge in the luxury of Kazaisu, a wine that's more than a drink-it's a memory waiting to be made.
