Description

Beotirang Turmeric is a 15% ABV makgeolli from Daejeon that distinguishes itself with the addition of domestic turmeric, giving it a distinctive golden hue and an earthy spice character. The rice base provides the expected creamy makgeolli body, while fructooligosaccharide adds gentle sweetness that complements rather than competes with the turmeric's warm, slightly bitter undertone. This savory-leaning profile sets it apart from the fruit-flavored makgeolli trend, offering a more grounded, herbaceous drinking experience. It pairs strongly with jeon, fried foods, and fermented side dishes where its earthy depth can interact with rich, umami-driven flavors.
