Description

Jangbogoui Kkum Hwangchil Yakju is a 15% ABV yakju (medicinal rice wine) from Jeollanam-do, named after Jangbogo, the legendary Silla-era maritime commander from the region. Brewed with domestic short-grain rice, koji starter, and yeast, it presents a polished, transparent profile tailored for delicate Korean courses. The focus is on clean, smooth character rather than bold aromatics, with restrained grain sweetness allowing the food on the table to remain the focal point. It particularly shines alongside grilled fish and steamed dishes where subtle texture and a composed finish matter more than intensity.
