Gyeongju Beopju Ssal Makkoli is a traditional Korean sparkling rice wine that is milky, lightly effervescent, and beautifully balanced. Made with rice, wheat nuruk, and water, this classic makgeolli offers a creamy texture and soft sweetness with a refreshing tang.

Taste & Texture

Delicate aromas of pear, apple, and peach lead to flavors of rice pudding, vanilla, and subtle nuttiness. Its natural sparkle adds brightness, while a gentle sourness balances the sweetness, creating a clean and refreshing finish.

Characteristics

Slightly cloudy in appearance, this unfiltered makgeolli is lightly fizzy, smooth, and creamy, with a soft, round mouthfeel and mild acidity that keeps it lively.

Serving & Pairing

Serve well chilled. Pairs wonderfully with Korean savory pancakes (pajeon), fried foods, seafood, or light vegetable dishes. Also perfect to enjoy on its own as a casual, refreshing drink.
