Shiratama Brand Whisky Umeshu 500ml《WC Collection - ZJ180》

There are only eight Japanese whiskey distilleries in Japan, and Eii Shuzo was founded in 1888 in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture. Eii Shuzo has been brewing sake and shochu since its establishment in 1888. It later obtained a whiskey manufacturing license in 1919, becoming the first distillery in Japan to obtain a whiskey license. Ejing Shuzo established a white oak distillery in 1984. The white oak distillery specializes in making whiskey. All whiskey produced from white oak is called "Akashi". It mainly produces blended whiskey but also has a certain amount of single malt whiskey. Jiangjing Shuzo has a total of 7 warehouses, and No. 2 is the Akashi Whiskey Warehouse. Solid walls and a small number of windows maintain the optimal temperature and humidity for brewing so that Akashi whiskey can mature in the best environment.

Akashi City was called the "Nada Ward" in the 19th century. The "Nada Ward" was rich in high-quality rice because of the clear water source in Hyogo Prefecture. The quality of the alcohol is also ensured by the clear water source. Hokubeemon was the first of the Hokube family to start brewing in Saitan, and his brother, Hokukichi, opened Eii Shuzo in 1888 with only 30,000 yen. Eii Shuzo's first Akashi sake "Yuri Masamune" was registered and manufactured at the distillery in 1894, and one of Akashi's most popular sake brands, "Kanago", was produced in 1895.

It is made with home-distilled whiskey as the base liquor, plus selected seasonal green plums from Japan and blended with the home-made shochu liquor.

The two complement each other and are perfectly integrated. It is soft and smooth while perfectly balancing spirits and fruit wine. The whole is very coordinated, sublimating the body and taste of the wine.
