Pyeongchang Persimmonja Makgeolli

Description

Pyeongchang Potato Makgeolli is a 6% ABV makgeolli from Gangwon-do that incorporates local potatoes alongside rice, ipguk, yeast, and refined enzymes. The potato addition creates an unusually creamy texture and earthy depth that sets this apart from standard rice-only makgeolli — the starch lends a velvety mouthfeel with a gentle sweetness rooted in the earth rather than grain alone. At 750ml and low proof, it is an approachable bottle that pairs naturally with savory jeon, spicy local dishes, and kimchi-centered tables.
