Umeshu is great, but it isn't sake. Umeshu is wine made from ume plum where sake is wine made from rice.

Umeshu can be drunk warm or cold, like sake, and in summer it is often sipped on the rocks.

It is not like tequila, and isn't a "shot" spirit. Sip slowly to enjoy the flavor.

Like red and white wines, there are countless varieties of sake and umeshu, so without knowing what is available it is hard to make a recommendation.
