Makguli

Jinro Makguli is a traditional Korean rice wine made from fermented rice, offering a creamy, lightly sparkling and refreshing drinking experience. Known for its signature milky appearance, makgeolli is unfiltered, giving it a smooth texture with natural rice sediment. Light in alcohol (around 6%), it delivers a balanced profile of gentle sweetness and tangy acidity, with notes reminiscent of yogurt, rice and subtle fruit. Easy to drink and highly refreshing, it is a staple of Korean cuisine and social dining.
