KINOENE NIHONSYUJIKOMI UMEKICHI 甲子正宗梅吉梅酒720ml

Crafted by Iinumahonke Shuzo (飯沼本家) in Chiba Prefecture, Kinoene Nihonshu Jikomi Umekichi (甲子正宗 梅吉 梅酒) is a luxurious sake-based plum liqueur that showcases the signature smoothness and umami of Kinoene Masamune sake.

Unlike standard umeshu made with shochu or neutral alcohol, Umekichi uses Junmai sake as the base, imparting a deep, rounded flavour and gentle sweetness. The rich aroma of ripe ume, combined with the soft acidity of sake, creates a perfectly balanced, full-bodied umeshu — ideal for slow sipping or pairing with dessert.
