Rich | Sweet | Refreshing
Ume Honoka is a refreshing and easy-to-enjoy umeshu from Naminooto Brewery in Shiga Prefecture. Made by soaking handpicked plums in the brewery’s junmai sake, this umeshu brings out the natural flavors of ripe plums with a gentle sweetness and acidity.
Unlike overly sweet umeshu, Ume Honoka stays light and refreshing. The gentle aroma of fresh plums greets you with the first sip, followed by a balanced mix of light sweetness and natural plum tartness. A hint of acidity adds a clean, slightly dry character, making it incredibly easy to drink. Whether you're a longtime umeshu fan or trying it for the first time, this is a great choice for any occasion.
Enjoy it straight, over ice, mix with soda or warmed on colder days—whichever way you choose, it’s a smooth, versatile drink perfect for relaxing or sharing with friends.
