Umeshu Extra Shiso Rosso 70 cl - Choya

The Umeshu Extra Shiso Rosso by Choya represents an excellence in the Japanese art of liquor made from ume, the typical green plums iconic of the Land of the Rising Sun. This drink is born from a meticulous infusion of the fruits in a high-quality distillate, combined with the extraction of red shiso leaves, an aromatic plant that imparts a vibrant herbal note and a characteristic deep ruby color.

The organoleptic profile stands out for the balance between the natural sweetness of umeboshi and the fresh, slightly mentholated acidity of shiso, creating a complex yet harmonious tasting experience. On the palate, fruity hints emerge supported by a slightly tannic aftertaste, typical of shiso leaves, which gives structure and persistence.

Not only a delicious digestif, the Umeshu Extra Shiso Rosso is perfectly suited as an ingredient for innovative cocktails, but can also be enjoyed paired with citrus-based desserts or fresh cheeses, thus enhancing the gastronomic biodiversity of Japan in a sip. Its production is rooted in its place of origin, highlighting the passion and tradition of the Choya winery.
