Description

Danhong is a 13.5% ABV makgeolli from Seoul that takes a thoroughly modern approach to the category, layering glutinous rice with raspberry, hibiscus, beet, and huajiao (Sichuan pepper). Lactic acid bacteria and agar support a creamy, luxurious body while the floral tartness from hibiscus and raspberry keeps the sweetness firmly in check. The beet contributes natural color depth, and the huajiao adds a faint, unexpected tingle that distinguishes Danhong from conventional makgeolli. Produced by Seoul Hyomobang Brewery, this is a distinctly contemporary bottle that tastes vivid and layered, especially alongside crispy jeon or fried chicken.
