Korean Makgeolli
Wando Yuzu Makgeolli
완도유자막걸리
Wando Yuzu Makgeolli is a 6% ABV makgeolli from Jeollanam-do that pairs locally grown Wando rice with yuzu juice to create a citrus-forward drinking experience. The yuzu note arrives immediately on the nose as a fragrant, aromatic top layer, then gives way to the rice body's creamy, gently sweet underbelly. Brewed with wheat flour, koji starter, yeast, and refined enzyme alongside the yuzu, the fermentation achieves a balance where citrus brightness lifts rather than overwhelms. When well chilled, the finish turns notably zesty, making fried dishes and fermented kimchi taste cleaner with each sip.

Jangbogoui Kkum Hwangchil Yakju
장보고의 꿈 황칠약주
Jangbogoui Kkum Hwangchil Yakju is a 15% ABV yakju (medicinal rice wine) from Jeollanam-do, named after Jangbogo, the legendary Silla-era maritime commander from the region. Brewed with domestic short-grain rice, koji starter, and yeast, it presents a polished, transparent profile tailored for delicate Korean courses. The focus is on clean, smooth character rather than bold aromatics, with restrained grain sweetness allowing the food on the table to remain the focal point. It particularly shines alongside grilled fish and steamed dishes where subtle texture and a composed finish matter more than intensity.
