ISIBO Makgeolli Original is a premium unfiltered Korean rice wine (makgeolli) handcrafted on Jeju Island, Korea. It is a pure-grain brew (sun-gok-ju) made from only three ingredients: Jeju-grown dry-field rice (“sandi” rice), heritage-wheat nuruk (a traditional fermentation starter) and water, with no added enzymes or cultured yeast. Fermentation relies solely on wild yeast at 25°C — the temperature behind the brand name, as “ISIBO” means “twenty-five” in Korean. Dry-field rice contains less starch than paddy rice, giving the makgeolli a clean, lively natural acidity and a soft, creamy body. 12% ABV, 500 ml. A living (unpasteurised) product with a 90-day shelf life; best served well chilled. Awarded at the 2025 Korea Liquor Awards (Daehanminguk Juryu Daesang).
