14% ABV, 700 ml
Home-grown Japanese plums are used in Matsui Umeshu. Then, perfectly balanced Matsui Brandy (made using the underground mineral water of Mount Daisen) is added.
Rich and full-bodied, with an elegant aftertaste. Water, ice or soda may be added according to preference.
“The expressive aroma of stewed plums is vivid on the nose. The black tea, lavender, and vanilla notes add complexity to the profile and balance the ripe fruit character. A savory Umami character persists on the palate and lingers through the finish.” 96 Points 2022 Ultimate Spirits Challenge
