About the brewery

Kuramoto Shuzo was founded in 1871 in the Tsuge area of northeastern Nara City, on the Yamato Plateau at an elevation of about 500 m. The brewery uses rice grown in this land with spring water drawn from its own back mountain. Since 2018 it has produced the "KURAMOTO" series, which aims at a new standard for sake, alongside long-loved local sake such as "Junmai-shu Kuramoto (純米酒 倉本)" and the bodaimoto-style "Tsuge no Himuro (つげのひむろ)".
