Kooksoondang Makgeolli Banana Rice Wine 750ml

Makgeolli is an alcoholic drink made and mostly enjoyed in Korea. Made from a mixture of wheat and rice, is it sweet and milky with a clean and smooth taste. Classified and described as a 'sparkling rice wine.' Very traditional! Low alcohol (4%), serve chilled, and gently shake before drinking for better taste and richer flavour.

Firstly the taste is sweet with an obvious banana hint, it’s maybe a little lacking on the Makkoli taste (depending on your preference). Secondly it’s only 4% alcohol, where most other rice wines are between 5 & 6%. This makes it a little more manageable and suitable for a weekday evenings or weekend afternoons.
