Julpo Fresh Makgeolli

줄포 생막걸리

ABV 6%
Volume 750ml

Description

Naebyeonsan Dongjin Brewery in Jeollabuk-do bottles this 6% fresh makgeolli with an emphasis on fermentation clarity over heavy sweetness. Domestic rice goes through a clean lactic fermentation that produces a bright, tangy undercurrent beneath the creamy body - more like fresh yogurt than candy. The unpasteurized format preserves fine natural carbonation that keeps each sip textured and alive. Winning the top prize in the 2014 Korea Traditional Liquor Awards fresh makgeolli category is no small feat, and the precision shows in how evenly the flavors are distributed. Serve cold at 5-7°C with gwangeo-hoe (flatfish sashimi) where the clean acidity refreshes the palate, or alongside kimchi-buchimgae whose charred edges meet the lactic tang.
