Ume Yoibito Clear Umeshu – classic Japanese umeshu with deep fruit
Ume Yoibito is a clear, fruit-driven Japanese umeshu made with shōchū and unripe ume plums. The liqueur has a clean and concentrated expression, where the plum’s natural acidity and sweetness are balanced by a distinct almond-like note, which is characteristic of high-quality umeshu.
The production is based on classic methods, where green ume plums are extracted in shōchū together with sugar for at least six months. During maceration, both fruit acid and aroma are released, resulting in an intense yet controlled flavor profile with depth and length.
The result is a harmonious umeshu with a pronounced fruit character, suitable both as a drink and as an ingredient in Japanese cuisine.

What is umeshu?
Umeshu is a traditional Japanese liqueur made by steeping unripe, green ume plums in shōchū together with sugar. The plums are naturally very tart and, during aging, release both fruitiness, acidity, and a characteristic almond note.
Its flavor is sweetish and fresh with clear fruit acidity, and the alcohol level typically lies between 10 and 15 percent. Umeshu is often enjoyed neat or with ice, but is also widely used in cocktails and modern serves.
