Recommended drink "Umeshu"! Recommended way to enjoy it!

Hello, I am the PR manager for Rakuzo Ikebukuro Nishiguchi Store.

We are proud of our extensive food menu, but of course we are also proud of our drink menu! We offer not only beer, cocktails, and sours, but also sake and shochu.
Today, we would like to focus on "Umeshu" among the drinks on the menu. We will introduce how to enjoy Umeshu during this cold season, as well as some unexpected combinations of Umeshu with menu items!

 

Our plum wine repertoire includes four varieties with a wide variety of flavors!


First, let me introduce our plum wine menu and its repertoire. We offer four types of plum wine. Here is the lineup.
Umeshu (plum wine)
Kishu Umeshu
Honey plum wine
Yuzu Umeshu
Some are easy to drink, some have a rich flavor that is the essence of plum wine, and some have a refreshing yuzu aroma. Some are easy to drink, while others are rich in flavor and have a refreshing yuzu aroma.

 

In winter, "hot water" is the best!


Like sake and shochu, plum wine can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, such as straight, on the rocks, or with soda.
Of all the ways to drink ume-shu, we recommend "wari" (mixing with hot water) in winter. Hot water with ume-shu enhances its rich aroma and reduces the calories and alcohol content. Of course, it also warms the body!

 

Can be served over pudding!

Umeshu is also popular for its delicious combination with an unexpected menu item. One such dish is "Milky Custard Pudding". Try pouring a little plum wine over this popular item from our dessert menu. The flavor of the melting plum wine and the richness of the pudding go surprisingly well together! In this case, we recommend "Kishu Umeshu" or "Honey Umeshu" with a strong flavor!
How was it? This is just one example of how to enjoy plum wine. Let's enjoy plum wine this winter!
