Choya Umeshu No Fruit

Umeshu is a liqueur made with plums. It has been consumed over 1,000 years in Japan. Umeshu is made by soaking unripe ume plums in sugar and shochu (Japanese clear distilled spirit) which has an alcohol content of about 35%. Ume plums contain potassium and calcium, so umeshu is said to be a healthy drink.

In Japan there is a saying that plums can draw poison out from food, water and blood. Better be safe than sorry and drink up Choya with Fruit Plum Wine! If anyone asks, you’re poison-proofing yourself. If that’s not enough, this plum wine is just plain delicious. The added fruit flavors are a unique twist on a standard plum wine. What’s more is it comes in a bottle with a Choya original spill-proof cap designed for easy pouring.
