Description

When Pear Blossoms Bloom is a 9% ABV makgeolli from Gangwon-do, crafted by Yesul Brewery using domestic rice, purified water, and wheat-based nuruk in a compact 140ml format. The small bottle signals single-serving intent, designed for a focused moment of drinking rather than extended communal sessions. Despite the miniature format, the rice and nuruk produce a genuinely creamy, softly sweet body that captures the essential makgeolli character. At 9%, it carries slightly more weight than standard 6% session styles, adding depth to the compact experience.
