Nakata Taru Umeshu

Created by Nakata, a Japanese food and beverage company, Taru Umeshu is a premium and refined version of the famous Japanese fruit liqueur.

Made from a local variety of ume grown in the Wakayama region, this liqueur has taken its time in all stages of production. The fruits were macerated with sugar and alcohol for a year, then the liqueur is aged in oak barrels for 5 long years during which the wood will impregnate the aromatic palette of its print.

Deeper and more complex than a classic umeshu, Taru Umeshu is an exceptional version of the House Nakata's flagship liqueur whose aromas of yellow fruits, plum, mirabelle plum and honey are revealed in a greedy and silky texture almost syrupy. Bottled in 20% cask strength, it can be drunk like a whisky or a brandy, on ice or cut with a little water or soda.
