Product details
Choya Sarari Smooth & Light is a refined umeshu (plum wine) crafted by CHOYA UMESHU CO., LTD., a Japanese company renowned for its dedication to traditional plum liqueur production. Established in 1914, CHOYA has been committed to delivering authentic umeshu experiences by using 100% domestically grown Kishu ume fruit, known for its superior quality and rich flavor. The Sarari series was developed to offer a lighter, more approachable umeshu, appealing to a broader audience, including those new to plum wine. By reducing the alcohol content to 10%, CHOYA aims to provide a smooth and easy-to-drink option without compromising the rich ume flavor.
This light-type umeshu presents a delicate balance of sweetness and tartness, resulting in a silky-smooth taste with a refreshing aftertaste. The inclusion of French brandy enhances its rich yet mild flavor profile. With an alcohol content of 10% and an average of 130g of Japanese ume used per 500ml bottle, it maintains the authentic taste of traditional umeshu. Choya Sarari Smooth & Light is versatile in its consumption; it can be enjoyed chilled, on the rocks, or as a base for cocktails. Its light and fresh character makes it an excellent companion to various dishes, including fried chicken karaage and desserts.
