 Tasting Notes

• Appearance: The bottle comes in this sleek, smooth, frosted glass that feels really nice to hold. Pouring it out, the liquid is a very light, translucent yellow-orange colour that looks like freshly squeezed lemon juice. 
• Aroma: There’s an apparent sweetness of lemon sorbet, fresh lime and candied tangerine peels. Snip it again, and you’d also capture the faint fragrance of spicy chilli notes. 
• Taste: The texture of this was lighter bodied than I expected, with a brighter acidity than I am used to with other umeshu drinks. There’s a clear citric sweetness at the fore, that reminds me of lemon candy and sour fizz gummies. I also detect a slight bitterness, akin to a lightly fermented orange peel and sour plums.
• Finish: The finish is medium, and a sweet-sour tanginess lingers. Notes of lemon curd and a slight sour plum note.
