Hakuryu Shuzo "White Dragon" Ume-shu Junmai sake

A luminous Niigata ume‑shu steeped in Junmai sake and hand‑picked Koshino Ume plums. It’s mellowly sweet yet taut with gentle acidity. Crafted with underground Agano‑fukuryūsui spring water, each sip feels crisp and clean in the mouth. The fruit‑forward profile sings of plum and rice, finishing with an elegant hush. Preservative‑free and silky on the palate, it’s perfect chilled, over ice, or in light cocktails.

Nose: Gently fragrant plum and clean Junmai rice aromas mingle with subtle floral tones.

Palate: Soft plum sweetness balanced by mild acidity and a nourishing Junmai sake body.

Finish: Clean, refreshing finish with a whisper of fruity clarity.

Enjoy as an aperitif with light cheeses like ricotta or goat. It also pairs gracefully with fruit-based desserts—fig tartlets, plum galettes, or panna cotta with citrus glaze.
