Korean Makgeolli
Plum Fragrance Makgeolli
매실향기 담은 술
Myeongse Brewing in Chungcheongbuk-do builds this 14% makgeolli on domestic rice, yeast, and enzyme treatment, with starch syrup and aspartame rounding the sweetness curve. The name promises plum fragrance, and the nose delivers — a ripe plum aroma with a hint of almond from the stone fruit family. On the palate, the body is rich and noticeably creamy, thicker than most standard makgeolli thanks to the higher ABV and starch syrup contribution. The sweetness is persistent but the plum acidity provides an undertow that keeps each sip from feeling static. The finish is mellow, with a rice-pudding coda. Serve well chilled at 5-7°C alongside tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) where the plum note and tangy glaze create a natural bridge, or with kimchi-jjigae where the bold fermented spice needs a sweet, cushioning partner.

Flirting Berry
플러팅베리
Flirting Berry is a 6% ABV strawberry makgeolli from Chungcheongbuk-do, blending rice fermentation with strawberry for a bright, easy-drinking style. The low proof and juicy fruit character make it one of the most approachable entry points into Korean traditional alcohol. Mild tang from citric acid prevents the sweetness from becoming heavy, while the rice base provides just enough body to feel satisfying. It pairs naturally with salty, spicy comfort food like kimchi dishes and fried snacks.
