Nigori - Umeshu - 12.5%
Asahara Shuzo is a renowned family brewery located in Saitama Prefecture, in the heart of Japan. Founded in 1882 by Zenjiro Asahara, this distillery benefits from artisanal expertise passed down through generations. Nestled amidst rolling landscapes, just above the majestic Chichibu mountains, Asahara Shuzo embodies the excellence of Japanese tradition.
Today, Kenichi Asahara, representing the 5th generation, passionately and innovatively leads this iconic house. He is supported by two young and talented Tojis — master sake brewers — a rare fact in the industry, ensuring exceptional quality and continuously renewed creativity. The brewery offers a remarkable variety of authentic products, including refined sakes, as well as unique Ume (plum) and Yuzu (pomelo) liqueurs, prized for their delicate flavors and natural freshness.
The Nigori Umeshu stands out as a highly refined plum alcoholic beverage. Its slightly cloudy texture is characteristic, offering a rich and creamy tasting experience. It is recommended to enjoy this Japanese nectar well chilled to reveal the full depth of its fruity aromas and harmonious sweetness.
