Umeboshi — and never sweet.
Only ripe Nanko-ume, sun-dried salt and shiso. Additive-free, classic "sour and salty" umeboshi, delivered to you.
Why We Love It
For anyone lamenting that "umeboshi has gotten too sweet lately" — this is it. Made with only plums, salt and shiso, with zero additives, their umeboshi are so sour they'll wake you up, and they make rice irresistibly good. A young team taking the pride of plum farmers and challenging the comeback of the "non-sweet umeboshi." A soul food essential to the Japanese table — you'll want to taste their passion along with the plum.
PROFILE About the Company / Workshop
"We want to make umeboshi that plum farmers can be proud of" — an umeboshi maker founded on that ambition. Using Nanko-ume that have fully ripened and fallen naturally, they commit to "additive-free" pickling with only salt and shiso.
