Chotokusen Tokubetsu Junmaishu Yamatsuru

Chotokusen Tokubetsu Junmaishu Yamatsuru is a super-premium specially designated pure rice sake from Nakamotoshuzouten in Nara, combining the chotokusen top-tier designation with the elevated ingredient or polishing standards of the tokubetsu junmai category. Nara's ancient sake-brewing culture, where Buddhist monks and temple brewers refined many foundational techniques still used today, provides the historical context for this carefully crafted expression. The Yamatsuru label, meaning mountain crane, evokes the purity and grace that the brewery aims to express through its premium sake.
