*New Product* Yamazaki Premium Umeshu (Japanese Plum Wine) from Suntory - Umeshu Aged in Toasted Oak Casks at Yamazaki Distillery!

Dear Whisky, Liqueur, and Umeshu Lovers,

It's the fall season in Kyoto and winter is fast approaching. That means it's the season for enjoying umeshu, also known as Japanese plum wine! Umeshu is a Japanese liqueur made by infusing a spirit with Japanese ume plums. However, Suntory has taken umeshu to a whole new level with this premium product. They have aged this umeshu in toasted oak casks at the Yamazaki distillery - home of the internationally award-winning Yamazaki Single Malt Whisky!

​From the box:

This Plum liqueur is aged in toasted oak whisky casks and is mixed with whisky that has been matured in plum liqueur casks to produce a full-bodied plum liqueur. Enjoy the fragrant aromas and a rich depth of taste imparted by toasted oak casks, together with a soft, lingering aftertaste.

*ABV 17%
