Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum Quick Facts

Taste and Texture

Japanese Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum has a sweet, juicy and gentle flavour. The flesh is yellow, aromatic and refreshing, with lower acidity than many sharper plums.

The skin is edible after washing and may have a light plum tang. For a smoother, sweeter eating experience, you may peel the skin before eating. Serve lightly chilled, but not ice-cold, so the aroma and sweetness can come through.

What First-Time Customers Should Expect

If you are trying Reigyoku for the first time, expect a premium Japanese table plum with a gentler, more elegant flavour than regular supermarket plums. It is sweet and juicy, but still carries a light refreshing plum character.

This is not ume, umeboshi, dried prune or Japanese plum wine fruit. Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum is best enjoyed fresh as a premium seasonal fruit.

What Is Reigyoku?

Reigyoku, written as 麗玉, is a premium brand name used for selected Shinano Pearl plums. Shinano Pearl is a Nagano-developed Japanese plum variety known for large fruit size, juicy flesh, high sweetness and low acidity.

Only fruit that meets selected quality standards should be described as Reigyoku. For this product, the uploaded packaging clearly displays 麗玉 / REIGYOKU, making Reigyoku the correct product identity.

Packaging and Gift Box Information

The uploaded image shows a single Reigyoku plum packed in a premium dark gift box. The plum sits on a gold base and is protected with a pink fruit net, giving the presentation a refined Japanese luxury fruit look.

The box lid shows 麗玉, the small reading れいぎょく, and English wording REIGYOKU. Packaging design, fruit size, fruit colour, net colour, grading, carton wording and presentation format may vary by shipment.

Brix and Sweetness

Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plums are selected for high sweetness. Public variety and retail references commonly describe Reigyoku selection as 18° Brix or above, while Shinano Pearl references may mention a guide around 18–20° Brix.

Actual sweetness can vary by grower, weather, harvest timing, maturity, grading, storage and shipment. Exact Brix should only be treated as confirmed when shown on the current carton, label or supplier information.

Season Availability in Singapore

Japanese Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum is a short-season premium Japanese import. Nagano references place Shinano Pearl / Reigyoku around mid-September to early October, with Shinano Pearl described as a late-season plum.

Singapore availability depends on Japan harvest timing, air shipment, carton allocation, grading and batch quality. Because supply is limited and seasonal, this 1-piece gift box may only appear for a short period each year.

Reigyoku vs Shinano Pearl

Shinano Pearl is the plum variety name. Reigyoku is the premium selected grade or brand name used for higher-quality Shinano Pearl fruit that meets stricter standards.

For customer clarity, this product page uses both names: Japanese Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum Gift Box. This keeps the premium Reigyoku identity while still capturing the recognised Shinano Pearl variety name.

Japanese Pearl Plum vs Regular Plum

Japanese Pearl Plum has a more premium eating profile than many regular plums. It is selected for large fruit size, juicy flesh, soft sweetness and gentle acidity.

Japanese Plum vs Ume

The term Japanese plum can be confusing. Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum is a fresh Japanese sumomo-style table plum, meant for eating fresh.

It is different from ume, which is often used for umeboshi, Japanese plum wine and Japanese plum liqueur. This product is a fresh premium fruit gift box, not ume and not a plum wine ingredient.

How to Choose and Eat Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum

Choose fruit that looks fresh, plump and clean, with no mould, leaking juice or deep bruises. A gentle bloom or powdery look on the skin can be natural for fresh plums and should be rinsed before eating.

For best flavour, enjoy when the fruit is fragrant and slightly yielding. Wash gently, chill lightly, slice around the centre stone and serve fresh. If the skin tastes too tangy, peel it before eating.

• Wash gently before eating
• Serve lightly chilled, not ice-cold
• Slice around the centre stone
• Peel if you prefer a smoother and sweeter bite
• Enjoy fresh as a premium Japanese fruit
• Use for dessert plates or fruit gift presentations
• Avoid eating or swallowing the hard centre stone

Japanese Plum Nutrition

Approximate values per 100g of raw plum. These are general plum nutrition values and are not specific lab-tested values for the current Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum batch. Exact values may vary depending on fruit size, sweetness, ripeness and batch.

Japanese Plum Benefits

Japanese plum benefits are often discussed because fresh plums naturally contain water, fruit sugars, dietary fibre, vitamin C and natural plant pigments. Reigyoku Shinano Pearl Plum can be enjoyed as a fresh seasonal fruit as part of a balanced diet.

Fresh plums should not be treated as medicine. They should not be used to claim calcium absorption, inflammation reduction, blood pressure control, bowel regulation, blood sugar stabilisation, disease prevention or treatment of health conditions.
