Umeshu

Ok this requires a metric, you know what, load of patience but don't be put off as you will be rewarded with an elixir unlike anything else you have ever tasted before.

You will get a decent, if immature, tasting result after 3 months stored in your deepest, darkest cavernous area of your abode but for best results just let it be for at least a year and preferably longer.

I also make mine with a combination of shochu and other drinks such as calvados, brandy and rum which plays to an extremely warm welcome.
