I have a bottle of apricot umeshu in my home bar - could this count as either a "brandy" or an "eau de vie"?

The Apricot Umeshu bottle from Ventura Spirits (Ventura, California) says: Green Apricot Liqueur 25% Alc. by Vol. (made by combining unripe apricots with pluot brandy & sugar) - no sake involved with this.

I suspect what you have is a low-alcohol sake-based liqueur.
