Have you ever drunk umeshu (or plum wine) before? Well, this umeshu is a little bit different from the regular umeshu out there.

In fact, I myself have a plum tree at home, so my grandma makes umeshu every year. "Hachiume" is the umeshu from Hachinohe Sake Brewery in Aomori. It's made from Ume plums, rock sugar and not shochu but "sake". The plums are soaked...
