✨ Story & Craftsmanship
Sekiya Brewery (Houraisen brand), established in 1864 in Aichi Prefecture, crafts the Kanjuku Umeshu using carefully selected ume plums steeped in alcohol. Their philosophy blends traditional sake/liqueur methods with innovation and quality ingredient sourcing (rice, yeast, and koji). Kent Street Cellars+3houraisen.co.jp+3houraisen.co.jp+3
Taste & Aroma
Aroma: rose petals, warm marzipan, and sun-ripened apricot. Annandale Cellars+2dejavusake.com.au+2
Flavor: rich, fruity sweetness balanced by a clean acidity that prevents it from becoming too heavy.
Finish & Texture: deep, lingering, with good length—the texture is lush but not cloying; the acidity cleans the palate. Annandale Cellars+1
️ Pairing Ideas
Serve chilled or on ice to best experience the fruit notes. Kent Street Cellars+1
Delicious with desserts like stone fruit tarts, creamy desserts, or light cakes.
Also great with cheeses (soft ones), fresh fruit, or as a refreshing digestif.
Use in cocktails (umeshu spritz, cool highballs) for fruity depth or with yuzu or sudachi
What Makes It Special
Ripe plum (“kanjuku”) translates into richer plum flavor than many standard umeshu.
14% ABV gives strength while retaining drinkability.
Not just sweetness: balanced acidity and a long finish.
Produced by Sekiya, a brewer that combines heritage (since 1864) and innovation.
