The expressive aroma of stewed plums is vivid on the nose. The black tea, lavender, and vanilla notes add complexity to the profile and balance the ripe fruit character. A savory Umami character persists on the palate and lingers through the finish. (Chairman's Trophy) (Great Value) (Tried & True) (Top 100 Spirits) - 2022 ULTIMATE SPIRITS CHALLENGE ... More details

Aromas of fruit leather highlight prune, black cherry, and brown sugar before transitioning to a palate rich with caramelized pineapple, sultana raisin, and lemon curd with a gentle, pickled plum acidity riding out the finish

Country: Japan

All over Japan, farmers and wine producers take the production of alcoholic beverages including plum wine and sake very seriously. It is an industry which dates back well over a thousand years, and is held in high esteem in this far east country, where plum wines and sake often accompany meals and are used for ceremonial purposes. Whilst plum wine is produced in a relatively similar way to grape based wines, sake requires a complex process more akin to the brewing of beer, except using a rice mash instead of other grains. The rising popularity of both of these drinks in the west has seen the drinks industry in Japan increase dramatically over recent years, and both quality and quantity has risen alongside demand, and is expected to rise further.
