Hakutsuru Umeshu Genshu 720ml

A Refined Japanese Plum Liqueur

Hakutsuru Umeshu Genshu is an elegant Japanese plum liqueur made with 100% Japanese Nanko plums. Produced in Hyogo, Japan, this umeshu delivers a rich fruit character, smooth sweetness and a refreshing finish.

With its beautiful golden colour and distinctive plum aroma, this liqueur is perfect for those who enjoy a sweeter, fruit-forward Japanese drink. It can be enjoyed in many ways — chilled, on the rocks, mixed with soda or used as a cocktail ingredient.

Tasting Notes

This Japanese umeshu shows a rich and fruity plum aroma with a smooth, mellow sweetness.

On the palate, it is full-flavoured and refreshing, with ripe plum notes, gentle acidity and a rounded liqueur-style texture. The finish is sweet, fruity and clean, making it easy to enjoy after meals or during casual gatherings.
