Shōryaku-ji 菩提山正暦寺
Every January seven sake breweries from the prefecture come here to collect the yeast starter.
Shōryaku-ji is a Buddhist temple founded in 992 on Mount Bodai, on the outskirts of Nara. The annual January rite now brings together seven sake breweries from the prefecture, members of a research group devoted to this fermentation method, called bodaimoto.
