You can also taste the umami that originates from the sourness of plum itself after the salt and plums have incorporated for a long time. Furthermore, The special taste will not be found in Umeboshi that only aged for one year. It won't be possible unless the Umeboshi is aged at a long amount of time. Not one, not two, but three years of maturing.

Anonymous Customer (Around 30 years old, Female)
The fruit flesh is very thick, there's a sensation when I bite into it. When I don't feel so good because I'm sensitive to the cold weather, I tried to search for the solution and 3 years aged Umeboshi came up so I bought it. The ume is in pretty big size so the fruit flesh is very thick, there's a sensation when I bite into it. It is very sour. Though I can eat it just with rice, because it's very sour, I ended up eating it with ochazuke or putting it inside my tea. I enjoy eating it everyday.
Mei (Around 30 years old, Female
Since it is a traditional Umeboshi, it tasted so delicious. I have a specific taste in Umeboshi. Though I've always eat Ryujin Umeboshi, in the end I bought Umeboshi from Takeuchi Farm and Kiwa no Sato because I heard they got great reviews. Both are traditional Umeboshi so they're very tasty. It's hard to tell which one is tastier, But personally, I think the big size Umeboshi from the Takeuchi Farm is better. I will buy it again.

The Manufacturer Who Made 3 Years Aged Kishuu Nanko Umeboshi
Takeuchi Farm specializes in the cultivation of Nanko Ume. It is located in Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture. Ume or plum is a fruit that is processed in its entirety, so Takeuchi Farm holds the motto of safety. In order to prevent damage to the insects, the farm uses natural repellents that they make from wood vinegar. Takeuchi Farm also uses natural homemade liquid manure that is made from fermented fish, garlic, turmeric and other ingredients that are good.
Organic green plum is harvested in the morning because they believe freshness is the best. And then on the same day, they ship the plums. You should try making your own Umeboshi, fresh jam, or umeshuu with this fresh plums.

Tanabe City in Wakayama Prefecture is blessed with a warm climate with little change in temperature throughout the year due to the Kuroshio Current flowing into the Kii Channel. Furthermore, the place is suitable for the characteristics of plums because of the heavy rainfall and long sunshine hours. To plant good quality plums, medium soil is necessary and absorbs a lot of calcium during the growing season. The “Urida Stone” often found in this area is made of calcium carbonate, so the soil contains a lot of calcium necessary for plums. Takeuchi farm is cultivating high-quality plums with a focus on organic and special preservation. From cultivation to harvesting, boxing, and shipping, the Takeuchi Farm has consistently done the job manually.

Unlike the plums that are still green, the plums that are ripened in trees are easy to get scratched when selected using automatic machine. Therefore people in Takeuchi Farm select their plums by hand using standard of two sizes: big and small.

From the selected plums, the best ones are picked again and delivered to the customers.
