Description
JK Craft in Busan's Dongnae district ferments domestic non-glutinous and glutinous rice with traditional grain starter (gokja) to create this 12% fruit-forward style. The aroma surprises with tropical lychee and pear blossom over a base of warm rice porridge. On the palate, a satiny body carries flavors of ripe Asian pear and a whisper of honey, finishing with gentle tannic grip and a floral lilt. The fruit character emerges naturally from the dual-rice fermentation rather than added fruit. Serve at 10-14°C, slightly below cellar temperature. Pairs elegantly with aged Gouda or Brie where rice sweetness echoes dairy cream, or with hwajeon flower rice cakes as a traditional Korean tea-time pairing.
