SUNTORY YAMAZAKI CASK UMESHU WHISKY BLEND RICH AMBER 山崎蒸餾所 焙煎樽梅酒 Rich Amber 750ml
Created by Suntory Yamazaki Distillery (山崎蒸溜所), Rich Amber Umeshu is a premium whisky-cask aged plum liqueur that spends months resting in the same toasted oak barrels once used for Yamazaki Single Malt Whisky.
The result is a beautifully balanced liqueur with aromas of vanilla, honey, roasted almond, and ripe plum, and a palate that unfolds in layers of caramel, spice, and gentle oak warmth. The deep amber hue reflects its name — a blend of elegance, richness, and mellow sweetness.
