Cheongmyeong Takju

Description

Cheongmyeong Takju is a 12% ABV makgeolli from Chungcheongbuk-do, produced by Jungwondang Brewery using domestic glutinous rice, domestic nuruk, and domestic wheat flour. The exclusive use of domestic ingredients across all three components — grain, fermentation starter, and supplementary flour — signals a quality-focused approach. The wheat flour broadens the body and adds a savory grain dimension, while the nuruk provides genuine fermentation complexity. At 375ml and 12%, this is a substantial, premium-positioned makgeolli for food pairing rather than casual drinking.
