This Umeshu (plum sake) is made with “Okutamba” Junmai sake, Japanese sugar beets, and plum juice from Wakayama, a region famous for growing plums for centuries.
It was originally created by the skilled Tamba Toji brewers as a special dessert sake for local princesses and lords.
This luxurious drink combines the refined taste of Yamana Sake Brewery with the bright acidity of ume plums and the gentle sweetness of honey.
You can also enjoy layers of flavor like persimmon, dried fruits, figs, and nuts, similar to a fine dessert wine.
Food Pairings:
Crème fraîche with fruit | Parmesan | Aged soft cheeses | Prosciutto | Savory crepes | Dark chocolate desserts

Using locally grown sake rice, they continue to brew sake using traditional handmade methods.
