Ohyama “Sakuya Konohana” Umeshu

If you’re an umeboshi (pickled plum) lover, this “umeshu” (plum wine) is for you. It was born from a collaboration with an eighth-generation confectionery business in Yamagata called Satoya Matsubee. The marriage between the iconic “Tomizu” sake, using a higher ratio of rice and an abundant amount of Satoya Matsubee’s famous umeboshi, is just bliss. Try it on its own or with food; the sweet and tart balance is addicting.
