Minabe Umeboshi
When you pick up a single plum and put it in your mouth, the plump, soft flesh melts away, allowing the tartness and saltiness to spread throughout your entire body. This is an umeboshi made from Nanko plums from Minabe Town, Japan's number one plum-producing region. Minabe Town is a major production area, accounting for approximately one-quarter of Japan's total plum harvest. Raised in a warm climate with many sunny days, the Nanko plums boast thick flesh, soft skin, and a wonderful aroma. These top-grade fruits are carefully preserved in salt and then sun-dried under the natural sunlight. The amount of care put into the process results in a rich umami and deep flavor. Placed atop freshly cooked white rice, it is enough to make an entire bowl disappear. Whether in an onigiri (rice ball), a bento box, or as a snack with tea, it truly is the king of plums that continues to accompany the Japanese dining table.
