Plum details

"Kensen" is named after the point of its buttocks. Because it is a variety that is sensitive to heat, production has decreased in recent years, making it a rare variety.

This plum has a mugwort-like aroma and a peach-like fresh acidity. The fruit is hard and the pickled plums have a chewy texture.

*This plum is used exclusively for plum wine because its skin is thick and syrup cannot be extracted properly.
