Plum Wine: An Important Cultural Tradition in Japan
KINSEN PLUM is an enticingly tart and sweet plum wine, ideal for serving as an aperitif or a dessert wine. KINSEN PLUM, or golden fan, is TAKARA’s own rendition with white wine base, of a traditional drink called “ume-shu,” (created with traditional plum and rice-base distilled drink called shochu) enjoyed by Japanese people through the centuries. With refreshing and mouthwatering flavors of summer fruit, this tawny elixir perfectly blends California white wine and ume-based flavors of the renowned plum species cultivated in Japan.
Global travelers have sampled plum wine in Japan and brought their appetite for the drink to their home countries. Plum wine is now in demand in the United States, where Takara Sake USA Inc. is the number one online sake store.
