Shiratama Umeshu is a plum liqueur produced at the Eigashima - White Oak distillery. It comes from the maceration of plums in shochu in which sugar and a touch of whisky are added to obtain a liqueur with a unique character.
Delicious on the nose with its aromas of quetsche, honey and almond, Shiratama Umeshu reveals itself in all roundness and softness on the palate with intense notes of plum and candied apple.
Product limited to 6 bottles per order.

The distillery Eigashima (ex White Oak)
Founded by Eigashima Shuzo, the Eigashima distillery, formerly called White Oak, was built in 1984 in Akashi, Hyogo prefecture.
Located near the Seto Inland Sea, the distillery benefits from a climate with large temperature differences between winter and summer, which favors the maturation of whiskies.
Founded in 1679, Eigashima Shuzo was originally a sake producer which in 1888, under the impetus of Hyokichi Urabe, diversified into the production of other traditional alcoholic beverages such as shochu, umeshu and wine.
