Description
Manpum Wild Ginsenggadeuk (Manpum Filled with Wild Ginseng) is a 13% ABV brew from Daenongbaiouri Wild Ginseng Brewery in Gyeonggi-do, blending Gyeonggi rice with cultivated Korean wild ginseng (sanyang sansam). The wild ginseng elevates this beyond standard yakju - it introduces a warm, rooty earthiness that reads as forest floor and dried bark rather than sharp medicinal bitterness. The nose opens with earthy ginseng root and clean Gyeonggi rice, creating a grounding impression. On the palate, the body is medium and smooth, with the ginseng warmth emerging in the midpalate as a gentle, sustained heat. The finish is moderate with a lingering root-vegetable depth. Winner of the 2012 Korea Traditional Liquor Awards Excellence and the 2014 Grand Prize. Serve at 10-13°C with samgyeopsal-gui where the ginseng's earthy warmth wraps around the pork fat, or alongside doenjang-guk where the fermented soybean broth and the root depth resonate.
