Description
Sula Maehwaju is a 15% gwahaju from Sulawon in Yeoju, Gyeonggi-do, bottled at 375ml. A brew of new-crop Yeoju glutinous rice and Korean nuruk is fortified with spirit; the brewery describes it as a gwahaju that blends a fermented and a distilled liquor. Only the clear liquor is drawn off, plum blossoms are floated in it, and it rests at low temperature for a long time to take on their scent. No artificial sweeteners are used. Sulawon was named a Visiting Brewery in 2021.
