Choya Plum Sake

Umeshu, pronounced "wu-me-shoo", is a traditional Japanese liqueur made from plume fruit. Choya is Japan's most recognized maker of umeshu — plum sake — using whole Nanko plums steeped in their signature sake base. The result is sweet, fragrant, and unmistakably plummy, with a warm, honey-like richness and a refreshing acidic finish. Drink on the rocks, with soda, or as a dessert pairing.

Food Pairing: Fresh fruit, vanilla ice cream, mild blue cheese, light almond cake, mochi desserts
