Description
The companion piece to C Green, Ssi(C) Yellow from the same Gangnam brewery blends rice and nuruk with carrot and lemongrass for a warm-toned 12% makgeolli. The aroma is bright and aromatic: candied carrot, lemongrass citral, and ginger-like warmth over a creamy rice base. On the palate, the body is medium-full and velvety, with a layered sweetness that moves from root-vegetable earthiness to tropical-citrus lift. The lemongrass adds a clean herbal backbone that prevents the sweetness from becoming heavy. The finish is medium-long, gently warming, and tinged with a Thai-tea-like spiced complexity. Serve at 10-12°C. Pairs strikingly with Thai-Korean fusion dishes like lemongrass-marinated pork gui, or with dakdoritang spicy chicken stew where the carrot sweetness echoes the stew's braised vegetables.
