Product Description:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A special Umeshu from SAKURAO DISTILLERY, finished in whisky casks. Umeshu is bottled at CASK STRENGTH with no water added. It has a sweet aroma derived from whisky casks, fresh acidity of green plums, and a clean finish. The fresh apple-like aroma, the rich sweetness of ripe apricots, and the acidity derived from green plums are in good harmony, with an aroma reminiscent of blood oranges.<\/p>\n

Maturation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Umeshu:
\nMade from Nanko plums cultivated in Japan. The plums are soaked in alcohol while still green, resulting in a refreshing yet rich plum aroma, and moderate sweetness.<\/p>\n

Whisky casks:
\nUmeshu is finished in the same whisky casks used for maturing SAKURAO malt whisky. For this 4th edition, we used bourbon barrels to add a whisky nuance to the Umeshu, resulting in a blend of the refreshing sourness of Umeshu and the sweet aroma of whisky. This combination allows you to experience the characteristics of both Umeshu and whisky.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
