Description

Urisul Brewery in Gyeonggi-do uses Gochang hwangto (yellow earth) cultivated fresh rice for this 6% makgeolli in a generous 900ml bottle. The hwangto farming method is believed to impart a rounder, more mineral-tinged grain character, and it shows here as a slightly deeper rice sweetness than standard domestic-rice versions - closer to freshly pounded tteok (rice cake) than steamed grain. The body is dense and creamy, built for pouring into bowls at a crowded table. A 2011 Korea Woorisool Encouragement Award in pasteurized makgeolli confirms the quality. Serve at 6-8°C with jokbal (braised pig's feet) where the dense body matches the fatty richness, or with kimchi-mandu (kimchi dumplings) for a satisfying combination.
