Product Description
✅ "Fully Ripe Kishu Nanko Honey Ume" from Wakayama Prefecture: Only fruits that have fully ripened on the tree and naturally fallen are used from the high-end Kishu Nanko Ume brand. This honey ume is carefully finished over two months with a secret seasoning liquid blended specifically for fully ripe plums and domestic honey.
✅ "Taste is Exactly the Same as Regular Products": The manufacturing process primarily involves plums that are crushed, have skin tears, or are damaged, but the flavor is unchanged from regular products. Due to these imperfections, it is offered at a more affordable price.
✅ "Satisfaction of Large Kishu Nanko Plums": Kishu Nanko plums are characterized by their large size, thin skin, and thick, soft flesh. Only fruits that have fully ripened on the tree and naturally fallen, which are concentrated in flavor, are used.
✅ "Domestic Honey and Secret Seasoning Liquid": While many umeboshi use imported honey, we are committed to using rare domestic honey. Combined with a secret seasoning liquid crafted from scratch to match Kishu Nanko plums, it brings out deep sweetness and umami.
✅ "Approximately Two Months from Harvest to Completion": The plums are salted for over a month with coarse salt, sun-dried for a week, soaked for half a day to a day to remove salt, and then marinated in the seasoning liquid for over ten days using the traditional double-soaking method. This results in a deeply mellow and rich flavor.
✅ "Great Compatibility with Rice and Various Dishes": Kiharudo's honey ume has a good balance of acidity and sweetness, making it compatible with rice as well as various dishes. Simply placing it on cold tofu or mixing it with cucumber or nagaimo creates an easy dish. Enjoying honey ume as is is also recommended to experience the umami of the plums.
✅ "Shelf Life": 180 days at room temperature from the date of manufacture. This product is stored by a third party, and items with less than 45 days remaining until the expiration date will not be shipped, so you can rest assured.
