Amami Oshima Umeshu

Amami Oshima Umeshu is a rare, handcrafted plum sake based on sugar cane shochu. It is produced by macerating plums from Kyushu with Muscovado sugar from the island of Amami-Oshima over a period of two years. This elaborate process gives it an intense plum aroma with subtle hints of marzipan and the characteristic scent of muscovado. It is ideal as a digestif, neat or on the rocks, as well as a cocktail base, in sorbets or paired with desserts.

The Producer

奄美大島 Amami Oshima

Die Amami Oshima Brauerei befindet sich auf der Insel Amami Oshima zwischen Kagoshima und Okinawa. Ihr Kokuto Shochu ist zu 100% auf dieser Insel hergestellt. Sie bauen selbst Zuckerrohr an und stellen daraus Muscovado her. Sie verwenden das berühmte Wasser „Jougo“, das als das köstlichste auf der Insel Amami Oshima gilt. Alle Shochu in dieser Brennerei müssen mindestens 2 Jahre gereift sein. Der lokale Zucker, gutes Wasser und der Alterungsprozess sorgen für ein elegantes süßes Aroma und einen erfrischenden Geschmack.

Classification of Premium Sake

For high quality sake, rice is polished prior to processing with the goal of eliminating the bran and protein which encase the starch held at the center of the rice grain. The smaller the rice polishing ratio (expressed as a percentage of the original rice weight), the finer and more aromatic the sake. Learn more about the different classes of of Premium Sake...
