Picnic

Description

Sopung (meaning 'Picnic') is a 5.5% ABV makgeolli from Monsteauville in Sancheong, Gyeongsangnam-do, brewed with locally grown Sancheong Metteugi rice. The texture is creamy and milky, lifted by fine carbonation that keeps every sip feeling lively rather than flat. Sweetness is calibrated with erythritol and stevia rather than heavy sugar, producing a clean, light finish instead of syrupy weight. The addition of milk and lactose in the fermentation blend contributes to the rounded, almost yogurt-like mouthfeel. At 5.5%, this is session-weight makgeolli designed for casual, extended drinking — think picnic tables, late-night snack runs, and everyday Korean meals. Pair it with crispy jeon, fried chicken, or tangy kimchi where refreshment matters more than complexity.
