Up To You

Prefecture of Japan: Fukui

Up To You in Japanese: アップトゥユー

Up To You uses a special variety of Japanese plum primarily grown in Fukui Prefecture. Benisashi ume are prized for their tart flavor and juicy texture, thanks to their smaller pits, fleshier meat and thin skin. This Japanese plum traces its origin back to the Tenpo Era (1830-1844) when two local merchants who were cultivating their own individual varieties decided to collaborate and create this unique hybrid.
