Description
Hantangang Express is a 12% ABV makgeolli from Gangwon-do, brewed by Durumi Brewery using non-glutinous rice (mepssal), koji, yeast, and enzyme preparations. Named after the Hantan River that cuts through Gangwon's volcanic basalt plateau, this makgeolli pushes well beyond session-strength territory into substantial, meal-anchoring weight. Non-glutinous rice gives the body a structured creaminess rather than the fluffy softness of glutinous rice styles, while the elevated alcohol adds warmth and length to each sip. The result is a makgeolli that stands up to intensely flavored Korean dishes rather than simply refreshing alongside them.
