Plum
Fukui plums, known for their thick flesh, ripen on the shores of the Mikata Five Lakes. They are a specialty of Wakasa Town. Wakasa Town is one of the largest plum-producing regions on the Sea of Japan coast. The history of cultivation is said to date back to the Tempo era (1830–1844). Representative varieties include 'Beniashi,' which is ideal for umeboshi, and 'Kensaki,' which is suited for plum wine. A characteristic feature of Fukui plums is their small seeds and thick flesh; they are a hardy variety capable of withstanding the severe winter cold. When you take a bite, the salty and sour flavors gently spread through your mouth. It is the taste of traditional umeboshi. Please enjoy them along with plum wine and various other plum products, as you experience the plum groves of Wakasa spreading along the lakeshore.
