ABV 14%
Volume 700ml

Description

Sulsaem Brewery in Gyeonggi-do names this 14% brew 'Geurium' (nostalgia), and the flavor profile delivers on that emotional cue - warm, familiar, gently enveloping. Domestic rice, nuruk, yeast, and water are fermented into a medium-bodied drink where the grain sweetness sits right at the center, neither too forward nor hidden. The nose carries toasted rice and a faint vanilla note from the yeast metabolism. On the palate, the texture is velvety and the sweetness resolves into a short, clean finish with a trace of spice warmth. Selected as a 2017 Visiting Brewery product. The 700ml bottle invites leisurely sharing. Pair it with jeyuk-bokkeum (spicy stir-fried pork) where the velvety body cushions the gochujang heat, or alongside sujebi (hand-torn dough soup) where the simple grain-on-grain pairing feels comforting and complete.
