Kakurei Umeshu Junmai Ginjo Plum Sake

Kakurei Umeshu Junmai Ginjo Plum SakeAn extremely pretty example of a style that can tend to the cloyingly sweet, this is an elegant sake based umeshu. Made by soaking locally grown Koshino Ume plums in the Kakurei Junmai Ginjo for three months then adding naturally produced rock candy to balance the tartness of the fruit, and aged for two more years to marry the flavors.
