About “The CHOYA FROM THE BARREL”
Released in October 2021
We mature the pure unblended Umeshu for 3 years in a special tank, and then age it for another 2 years in roasted French oak barrels. Rich and complex flavors, with a mellow taste and gentle acidity from the ume’s flesh and notes of almond from the pit, followed by a smoky and luxurious bouquet from the oak cask.
Limited quantities sold mainly in duty-free shops.
With a mission to deliver “The power of ume”, CHOYA seeks new possibilities that the ume can offer delivering the unique power of this fruit to the people all over the world, so they can lead healthy and enjoyable lives.
