Thick and Satisfying Umeboshi Flesh

The three-year umeboshi is pickled with large plums, making it more than enough for a single serving.

It can be enjoyed on rice or dissolved in tea, expanding its versatility.

Kishu Nankou Ume - Umeboshi's Hometown in Wakayama Prefecture

The plums used for umeboshi are carefully cultivated in the natural environment of the home of Kishu Nankou Ume, Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture.

Tanabe City, located along the Kii Channel, has a mild climate with minimal temperature fluctuations throughout the year due to the influence of the Kuroshio Current. Abundant rainfall and long hours of sunlight create an environment suitable for the characteristics of plums.

Additionally, the prevalent "Uridaniishi" (limestone from Uridani) in this region is composed of calcium carbonate, providing a neutral soil rich in calcium, essential for plums. The Takeuchi Farm, the producer, insists on the ideal land and organic cultivation for plum cultivation, consistently producing high-quality plums.

What is Specially Cultivativated Ume?

Ume (Japanese plum) itself is a fruit that can be eaten whole, so it is cultivated with reduced pesticide practices, adhering to strict national standards for pesticide use and limiting pesticide use to 50% or less than conventional cultivation methods.

Ume is particularly susceptible to diseases and is considered a challenging crop to grow. However, with a focus on soil conditions and customer health and safety, pesticide usage is minimized during production.

Support Your Everyday Health with Safe and Additive-Free Umeboshi

Citric Acid, a component of Ume's sourness

Umeboshi contains abundant citric acid produced through natural fermentation.

Citric acid promotes the metabolism of carbohydrates, activates energy metabolism, supports fatigue recovery, and aids in creating a body that is less prone to fatigue.

It is well-known that adding umeboshi to a bento box helps prevent quick spoilage, thanks to citric acid. Once ingested, citric acid also actively promotes bile function, providing a preventive effect against bacteria that can cause food poisoning.
