Description
Hongsi (Ripe Persimmon) is a 12% ABV fruit-based drink from Gyeonggi-do, produced by Baesangmyeon Juga with 30.8% domestic ripe persimmon (hongsi) content. The high fruit ratio gives each sip an immediate, rounded autumn-fruit depth - the honeyed sweetness and silky texture characteristic of fully ripened Korean persimmon. High-fructose corn syrup, spirits, and sugar supplement the base, while malic acid provides the counterbalancing acidity that prevents the sweetness from becoming cloying. At 700ml and 12%, it sits between a fruit wine and a liqueur, making it versatile as a standalone dessert drink or as a food pairing partner.
