1. Ozaki, Binchotan-Filtered Umeshu, 720ml
Crafted by Ozaki Shuzo, one of Wakayama's oldest and most esteemed breweries, this umeshu is mellowed over binchotan charcoal, which rounds it out into a complex plum liqueur with a smooth, refreshing finish. A recipient of the 2023 Kura Master Platinum Award. Rich and mellow, with a subtle smokiness and a deep, well-balanced aftertaste.

2. Yoshimura, Kokuto Umeshu, 720ml
A fusion of Okinawan kokuto brown sugar and premium ume plums, giving a rich, molasses-like sweetness that balances the tartness of the fruit. Smooth and luscious, straight or in a cocktail.

3. Takasago 5:26pm Umeshu, 500ml
Inspired by the dusk sky, and brewed with Japanese sake to bring out the full aroma of the plums. Lower in sugar and aged two years, with a delicate, mild fruit flavour and a balance of sweetness and acidity, lifted by a few drops of brandy. Serve chilled and straight.

Pairings. Grilled meats, sashimi, rich cheeses, figs, and desserts such as panna cotta or fruit tarts. All three also sit well alongside chocolate.

Contains alcohol. Sold to over-18s only.
