Kokonoe Saika Shuzo, Saika Nigori Umeshu (Plum) Sake, NV (720ml)
Kokonoe Saika Shuzo, Saika Nigori Umeshu (Plum) Sake, NV (720ml) is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
From the heart of Wakayama—Japan’s most prized region for ume plums—comes this distinctive and decadent Nigori Umeshu from Kokonoe Saika Shuzo. Unlike most umeshu, which starts with neutral spirit, Saika uses junmai-style sake as its base and then blends in whole macerated ume plums. The final touch? A dose of nigori (unfiltered sake) that adds body, texture, and a creamy lift.
The result is unique and captivating: sweet-tart plum, almond skin, and a subtle yogurt tang swirl through a silky, almost milkshake-like texture. It’s rich but balanced, with enough acidity to stay refreshing. Served chilled, it’s a natural match for desserts, salty snacks, or spicy dishes—but also perfect just on its own.
This is umeshu for people who think they know umeshu—something playful, indulgent, and completely unforgettable.
