This umeshu is made by the Junmai Daiginjo masters atTatenokawa Shuzo. It is made from the finest Nanko plums, harvested locally in Yamagata Prefecture, and combined with Tatenokawa Junmai Daiginjo sake and Shochu made from the lees (kasu) of the same sake and sugar.
The addition of shochu has the bonus of elongating the life of this umeshu and so it will last for a few weeks once open, if kept in the fridge.
