Pungjeong Sagye Chun (Spring)
About this drink
This clear cheongju is the spring edition of Pungjeong Sagye, the series in which Hwayang Brewery turns the four seasons into drink. It is brewed by the samyangju (triple-brewed) method, with three rounds of added mash, and balances the rice's neat, restrained sweetness against a faint grain aroma. A fitting first pour for a formal occasion.
