第七 生もと 梅酒
This is Daishichi’s first sake-based plum wine. To create the perfect premium umeshu, we experimented with a variety of brewing styles. Finally we decided to use generous amounts of undiluted sake, brewed with the most appropriate sake type: Junmai Kimoto. To guarantee a steady supply each year of large, top quality ume plums, we use selected Nankou plums from Japan’s main ume growing region of Kiishu (Wakayama). Thanks to this lavish production method, we have produced an unrivalled, plum wine of the highest quality, with a rich, mellow flavor and velvety smoothness.

Bottle pour at Asano. Light, sour ume, slightly sweet, great rich oily body. Elegant and tart, not much sake flavor but lovely plums.

Glass 2 of the special set at sakagura. Pours dim yellow kinda like pee but that’s where urine comparisons end. Nose of sweet candied plums. Tastes of plums, sweet sugar, vanilla, wood, rice, and floral. Hint of alcohol on finish and a touch sticky. A desert sake for sure
