This is a highly unique, deeply artisanal Junmai sake brewed in the mountainous Yoshino region of Nara Prefecture, Japan. Produced by fourth-generation Kuramoto and Toji (master brewer) Teruaki Hashimoto, this sake is renowned among low-intervention fermentation lovers for its bold complexity, rich textures, and high natural acidity. The standout feature of this sake is its brewing technique, which utilizes Mizumoto (also known as Bodaimoto), an ancestral starter method developed during the Muromachi period (1336–1573) by monks at Nara's Shoryaku-ji temple.
