Kanjuku Umeshu Genshu
Kanjuku Umeshu Genshu uses only fully ripe Nanko ume plums from Wakayama Prefecture, providing a vastly different flavor profile compared to other umeshu products. While most umeshu is diluted to lower ABV levels, Gekkeikan's umeshu is bottled at 19%, giving this tantalizing and versatile umeshu a real punch of flavor.
Tasting Notes
This umeshu is thick and almost syrupy, with a gorgeous amber color. Fruity and flavorful, it has a very sweet, mouth-coating texture.
