Vino lovers, keep reading for all things plum and fine! Umeshu, a Japanese plum wine from the house of Yuzu, is an aperitif all set to be your winter pick-me-up. Sometimes, a regular old cocktail just won’t cut it and we look for something more fun to get the party started. That’s when raising a glass of Umeshu makes things lively (and light). With the holiday season knocking right on the door, let’s all tip into the festive feeling with this Japanese plum wine because we honestly can’t find a reason not to.
With three different flavors, Umeshu is sure to win over your guests and make you the host/hostess with the mostess! Try the Kishu Umeshu Beninanko, a winner for those who love peachy aromas. If you like your wine on the more citrusy side of things, try the yuzu notes of Kishu Yuzu Umeshu paired with some tempura veggies (a match made in heaven!). Our personal favorite is the Nakano Umeshu, a sweet and refreshing pick which you can have on the rocks, with sparkling water, or mixed with fruity cocktails of your choice.
So, bring out some fun board games, grab some delish Japanese takeout and pour your pick of Umeshu to let the good times roll with your gang!
All that socializing can make you want some cozy one-on-one time for yourself during the breezy days. Why not catch up on your reading with some crisp plum wine? Umeshu is the perfect accompaniment for such me-time breaks. Imagine yourself cocooned in a fuzzy blanket, enjoying a stellar read and savoring this luscious wine. Isn't this what sweet (winter) dreams are made of?

Masque in Mahalaxmi, Slink & Bardot in Worli, Foo in Phoenix Palladium, and Origami Japanese & Korean Restaurant in Bandra East currently stock these.
