HASSEN HACHIUME UMESHULimited Release This award winning Umeshu was brewed with the expertise that comes from almost three centuries of experience. The usual image of plum wine or umeshu is that it will be sweet but this release is very different as the nature of the ume fruit shines through and any sweetness is contrasted by a sharp acidity leaving the impression of dryness on the palate.
