Wakayama Prefecture Ripe Nanko Ume (Japanese Plum)

Carefully ripened on the tree until they develop a beautiful golden-yellow color, these Ripe Nanko Ume represent the peak of the season.
By allowing the fruit to fully mature in natural conditions, they develop a rich, sweet fragrance and exceptionally soft, juicy flesh that cannot be found in unripe green plums.

With their delicate thin skin and melt-in-your-mouth texture, these plums are highly valued for their intense aroma and deep flavor, which truly shine when processed.

Grown in Wakayama’s ideal climate and nurtured by experienced producers, this seasonal delicacy reflects the craftsmanship and quality of Japanese agriculture.

Storage & Handling (Important)

This is a highly delicate fruit. Please refrigerate upon arrival and process as soon as possible.
Due to its high ripeness, the fruit softens quickly and its quality changes over time.

Important Notice

For best quality and safety, we recommend using ripe plums for processing such as jam or syrup rather than consuming them as-is.
Please discard any damaged fruit before use.
