Tateyama Umeshu: Less Sweet Sake-Based Umeshu

About Tateyama Brewery

关于立山酒造

Tateyama Shuzo is a major brewery with an annual production of 35,000 koku (1 koku is equivalent to approximately 180 litres), boasting the largest brewing capacity in the Hokuriku region. It is overwhelmingly popular, with more than 90% of its sake drunk locally, and is renowned as one of Toyama prefecture's most famous sake breweries.

立山酒造是一家大型酒厂，年产量为35，000石（1石相当于约180升），拥有北陆地区最大的酿酒能力。它在当地非常受欢迎，90%以上的清酒都是在当地销售，是富山县最著名的清酒造之一。

It used to be quite a rare sake that is hard to find for people from other prefectures. Although this is not the case now that the brewery is increasing the number of koku produced, there was a time (around the 1980s) when Tateyama Honjozo Ginrei-Tateyama, which had a relatively high production volume among Tateyama's sake, was sold at a premium in the Kanto and Kansai regions, at 8,000 to 10,000 yen per bottle.

它曾经是一种非常罕见的清酒，其他县的人很难买到。虽然现在酒造正在增加酒的石数，但曾经有一段时间（大约在 1980 年代）立山本醸造银铃－立山在关东和关西地区以每瓶 8，000 至 10，000 日元的价格出售。

Tateyama Umeshu

立山梅酒

Tateyama Umeshu is a sake-based umeshu made by soaking Kishu Nanko plums (100%) in the most popular of Tateyama Shuzo's sake, Honjozo Ginrei-Tateyama. The result is a crisp, refreshing plum wine that is popular as a mealtime drink.
The umeshu is made entirely from plentiful Nanko-plums from Kishu and slowly pickled in the honjozo, which is originally made from sake with a delicious flavour, so the amount of sugar used is kept to a minimum and the sake is brewed to a very refreshing, light and gentle flavour.

立山梅酒是一种以清酒为基酒的梅酒，把纪州南高梅（100%）浸泡在立山酒藏最受欢迎的清酒本酿造银玲立山中酿制，酿制而成一种清爽、淡雅的梅酒，作为餐前饮料很受欢迎。

The pale golden colour and elegant plum aroma, the delicious and subtle sweetness of the sake, and the fresh and refreshing sourness of the plums all combine to create a well-balanced taste that goes down the throat easily.

梅酒是完全采用来自纪州的南高梅，在最美味的立山本酿造中慢慢浸泡而成。因此糖含量保持在最低限度，清酒酿造成梅酒非常清爽、温和、淡雅。
