CHOYA GOLD EDITION - with gold flakes

What is Brandy Umeshu?

While ordinary umeshu is made by steeping ume fruits in clear distilled liquor, brandy umeshu is made with brandy instead of clear distilled liquor, as its name suggests.

Combining ume’s refreshing taste with Brandy’s deep flavours will result in an umeshu with a unique, multilayered taste that stands out from regular umeshu.

Recommended Ways to Enjoy
