Kishuu Ume Mix is a vegetable and fruit juice made by Kagome and is part of their lineup of "Yasai Seikatsu 100" vegetable juices.
The drink uses "Ume"(Japanese apricot) harvested in "Kishuu", a former province that is now mostly Wakayama prefecture, hence the name "Kishuu Ume Mix". On the package it is claimed that they use Nankoubai, a brand of ume grown mainly in Wakayama prefecture. The drink also claims to contain 1000mg of citric acid.
Taste
Although "Kishuu Ume Mix" contains 21 different vegetables which make up 50% of the juice, it's not viscous at all and seems just like fruit juice. The other 50% of the juice is comprised of 3 types of fruit, apples, ume(Japanese apricot), and lemon. The taste of the ume is particularly strong and adds a nice, sour accent to the drink.
The drink is a seasonal drink sold for the summer so it's likely that it will be phased out after the season.
Fruit List
Apple, ume, lemon.
