SUNTORY- Kodawari Sakaba Taco-High “Crushed Plum” Can 350ml offers a delicious twist on the classic izakaya shochu highball. This version infuses the crisp, clean base of roasted barley shochu with the distinct sweet-tart flavor of real crushed ume plum (梅). The result is a deeply refreshing sour that balances fruity richness with a dry, savory finish.
At around 6% alcohol, this 350ml can delivers the authentic taste of a Japanese pub-style “ume sour.” The flavor profile is complex: initial notes of ripe plum and a hint of saltiness give way to the sharp, clean carbonation of the highball. It’s an incredibly drinkable RTD that pairs perfectly with grilled meats, yakitori, or rich izakaya fare. Izakaya-style shochu highball with crushed ume plum flavor. Sweet, tart, and savory notes. Approximately 6% ABV. Refreshing and highly carbonated. The perfect balance of fruity ume and dry shochu.
