NOMLip-smacking good! I got the version without shiso also, but this one with shiso is so much better. Delicious!

Convenient, not quite as good as whole umeboshiThis is definitely a good alternative to whole umeboshi if they are unavailable or just not convenient. It's very convenient to use and lasts a long time because the flavor is very strong so only a little needs to be used at a time (unless you're like me who will down a tablespoon at a time lol). However, I do find that the paste one does not have the same delicious texture as umeboshi, and two does not have the same fruity fragrance or taste. It seems to trade a bit of that for a more salty taste, which is fine but when I'm eating umeboshi rice balls I find using the paste a little underwhelming. All in all, a fine alternative and definitely a more convenient option to get the pickled plum flavor, but it can't beat using real, whole umeboshi.

Umeboshi PasteIf you like umeboshi, you'll probably like this. Umeboshi is usually eaten with steamed rice. The squeeze tube paste makes it easier to apply to nigiri (rice balls) and even sushi.
If you're not familiar with umeboshi, it's much more sour than it is sweet.
