Bright, delicate, and made for easy drinking, this makgeolli offers a modern take on a deeply traditional Korean rice wine. Gentle notes of cooked rice and wildflower honey give way to a smooth, creamy texture, with lively acidity bringing freshness and balance. The finish is crisp and dry, leaving behind a subtle sweetness and the unmistakable character of naturally fermented rice. The foundation is our flagship Takju 16, made with California rice, traditional nuruk, and New York water. Once fermentation is complete, the full-strength takju is carefully brought down to 6% ABV, then finished with a touch of honey. The result is a lighter, highly approachable makgeolli that preserves the complexity of the original while offering a naturally balanced sweetness.
