Kimoto Umeshu

🍶
Description

A kimoto-method ume liqueur from Shibata Brewery in Okazaki, Aichi, blending the complexity of traditionally brewed kimoto sake with ume fruit. The kimoto base brings clean acidity and layered umami characteristic of the ancient brewing method, distinct from liqueurs based on simpler brewed sake foundations. Shibata Brewery uses ultra-soft Kansui spring water and, for some rice, their own pesticide-free cultivated grain.
