How it is made

Joining green ume and dark sugar through brandy

Green ume from Oindo Farm in Nara meets dark sugar from Okinawa’s Hateruma Island, with brandy adding vinous depth.

01

Giving it a spine of green ume

Green-ume fragrance and acidity provide the structure needed to carry the richness of dark sugar.

02

Layering Hateruma dark sugar

Molasses, toast and gentle bitterness add complexity to the plum and brandy.

The result

Rich, but never only sweet

Green-ume acidity lifts the weight of the dark sugar and brandy, leaving a quiet bitterness behind.

Taste profile

Dark sugar, ripe ume and vanilla

Dark sugar, ripe ume and vanilla

Molasses-like aroma meets ume, mature brandy and a touch of vanilla. Acidity brings order to the silky sweetness and carries the long finish.
