Yangchon Chungju Korean Rice Wine 500ml

500 ml | 14% ABV
Soju

Yangchon Chungju Korean Rice Wine is a beautifully crafted traditional beverage with deep roots in Korean history. Brewed by Yangchon Brewery, established in 1920, this rice wine follows generations of expertise passed down through three generations of brewers. It’s made from rice that’s grown without herbicides, using a unique method where snails are released into the rice fields to help maintain a natural balance in the environment.

This premium Chungju is made from fermented rice, capturing the essence of the region it hails from, Chungju, in the Chungcheong province of South Korea. The brewing process involves steaming the rice, mixing it with water, yeast, and nuruk (a fermentation starter), and allowing it to ferment for several days to weeks, producing a complex, flavorful wine.

Tasting Notes:
This Yangchon Chungju has a rich golden-amber hue and a distinct profile, offering savory notes of fermented soy, cheese rinds, and mushrooms, which are balanced by a natural sweetness that imparts a round, smooth texture. The combination of savory and subtle sweetness makes it a truly unique and nuanced rice wine.

How to Drink:
We recommend treating Yangchon Chungju like white wine: chilled and served in a wine glass to fully appreciate its delicate and layered flavors. Drinking this rice wine is an experience to savor slowly, allowing the intricate tastes to unfold with every sip.

Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with Korean cuisine, Yangchon Chungju offers a refreshing and authentic experience, bringing a piece of Korean tradition to your glass. Available now at Royal Batch!
