Umeshu is probably one of Japan's most traditional alcoholic specialties. Only Benisashi Ume is used for Kaga Umeshu. This special type of apricot only grows in Kanazawa City (Ishikawa Prefecture) and in neighboring Fukui Prefecture. "Beni" means "red" and "sashi" means "shining". The name therefore stands for the deep red and radiant color of the ripe ume. The ripe fruits of the Benisashi Ume have more amino acids than other types of high-quality ume (Nankounai Ume). Due to the higher proportion of amino acids, benisashi ume has a milder aroma and an intense umami flavor.

Manzairaku Kaga Sparkling Umeshu has already won several awards and is served on all first-class flights operated by ANA (All Nippon Airways), among others. It has also been the on-board drink of the GranClass service on the Hokuriku Shinkansen since its launch in 20215.

The Sparkling Umeshu should be enjoyed chilled.
