- Akashi-Tai's plum liqueur is made by preserving umeshu fruit in premium sake, a process that softens the spirit while intensifying the plum's natural sweetness and complexity. Delicate and fragrant, it bridges Japanese tradition with modern sophistication. Chill and serve neat in summer, or warm with hot water as a winter digestif.
