Description

Why Choose This Experience? This isn't just a tasting or a one-time workshop—it's a complete introduction to authentic makgeolli brewing at a working brewery. Unlike many classes, you'll learn the traditional techniques, ingredients, and fermentation process used to brew real Korean rice wine. Every step is designed to give you practical skills you can continue using at home. As the author of the first comprehensive English guide to home brewing Korean rice wine and founder of Baekusaeng Brewery, I've helped thousands of students from around the world discover the art of makgeolli. Whether you're a complete beginner or a fermentation enthusiast, you'll leave with the knowledge, confidence, and inspiration to keep brewing long after your trip to Korea.
