Pre-order
- Fresh Ao Ume, with the option to add on koorizatou 氷砂糖 (Japanese Rock Sugar) or our favourite spirit used, thus far
- Availability: early Summer (usually in early June, for a period of 2 weeks, but 2023 is proving to be a hot year)
- Preparation method: steeped in white liquor with rock sugar (you’ll get some nice earthy flavours in your homemade Umeshu 自製梅酒)
- Note: for the whole box orders, add ons comprise of 1 x Japanese Rock Sugar (Koorizatou 氷砂糖), or 1 x Singleton 12 Years Single Malt, or both (1kg of rock sugar and 1 btl of Singleton 12). This allows you to experiment with different spirits and sugars!
