Plum Whisky Liqueur 'Matsui Umeshu'

Plum Whisky Liqueur Matsui Umeshu Kurayoshi Distillery
  • Umeshu (Japanese plum liqueur) fortified with whisky produced by Matsui Whisky in Tottori, Japan
  • Whisky pot distilled and lightly aged by Matsui’s Kurayoshi Distillery
  • Produced using the soft groundwater of Tottori Prefecture’s Mount Daisen
  • Luscious aromas of dried plum, raisin, honey, and oak prime the palate for a bright, faintly acidic umeshu with a spicy, distinctly whisky-forward finish with lingering notes of vanilla, black tea, and apricot
  • Awarded Chairman’s Trophy & Top 100 Spirits, Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2023
  • 14% ABV

This entry into the category of umeshu is defined by distinct fruit and spice notes from its fortifying spirit, showcasing an exceptional plum liqueur while highlighting Kurayoshi Distillery’s own pot-distilled whisky. Try this delightfully complex, shelf-stable umeshu over ice, with club soda or tonic water, or slip some into your next whisky-based cocktail!
