Amabuki UMEBOSHI SOUR to the future

Description

A modern take on Japan's iconic umeboshi (pickled plum), this refreshing drink delivers a vibrant balance of salty, tangy, and fruity flavours. Crisp acidity, gentle sweetness, and savoury umami make it an exceptionally refreshing aperitif and a versatile companion to Japanese cuisine and casual dining.
