[Jeonnam / Goheung] Nokdong Brewery (Eotteon Haru) – Nokdong Goheung Yuja Wine & Yuja Makgeolli Famous Brewery

Nokdong BreweryIt is a citron wine specialty brewery located in Doyang-eup.
The name of the directly managed store is A certain dayIt is operating as.

Thanks to the signboards set up along the roadside, finding your way is not difficult.
“It says ”A Certain Day by Nokdong Brewery → 40m”, and,
Three items—Goheung Yujaju, Yuja Makgeolli, and natural fermented vinegar—are listed in the yellow box.
If you follow the signs, it appears right away.

A yellow awning, resembling a yuzu fruit, sets the impression of the exterior.
Since business hours are not separately announced
It is safer to check by phone before visiting.

The interior is a small, white space.
Citron wine, makgeolli, and vinegar are lined up on the wall shelf,
There is a red mushroom light on the counter.
“A blackboard reading ”MAKE YOUR A DAY THE DAY” occupied one wall,
Although it was a small space, there were corners everywhere that had been carefully tended to.

Tasting or tours of the brewing facilities are not operated separately.
The product manual was well-equipped, so I was able to grasp the information sufficiently, but
It might be lacking in terms of content.

Three promotional posters for Goheung Yujaju are posted on the inside of the entrance glass window.
The style featuring a liquor bottle illustration on a yellow background matched the color of the exterior awning.
“The phrase ”Citrus-inspired traditional liquor” caught my eye.

On one side of the shelf, there is an old one that is no longer for sale Makgeolli There are also bottles lying around.
“Below the phrase ”It’s okay to be lazy”
The design is quite cute.

A ring binder-style product guide was placed on the seat.
Descriptions of each product are organized on each page.

Representative Products Any Citron 06It was brewed using the medicinal liquor method, but,
It is classified as other alcoholic beverages because the yuzu content reaches 201 TP3T.
The regular price is 24,000 won, and it is discounted to 19,000 won for takeout.
Usually, the higher the alcohol content, the more expensive it is, but,
The most expensive item in this brewery's lineup is this 6% alcohol drink.
It seems to be because so much yuzu is used, making the price of the raw materials high.

On the next page Makgeolli vinegarThere was also.
It is natural fermented vinegar, priced at 12,000 won for 500ml and 24,000 won for 1L.

I bought two things.
Any Citron 06 (19,000 won) and Yuja Makgeolli Light (3,500 won).

Some Yuja 06 has a straightforward sweetness and yuzu aroma.
To the extent that the yuzu content of 20% can be felt as is,
If you like sweet fruit wines, it seems like it would suit your taste well.
The light alcohol content of 6% also played a part.

Yuja Makgeolli Light promotes itself as being aspartame-free, but,
It is not unsweetened makgeolli because it contains acesulfame potassium and sucralose.
It was not much different in the broad sense from sweetened makgeolli with a citron scent,
It is not a bad bottle, as long as you don't set your expectations too high.
The price of 3,500 won was reasonable.

Although I didn't buy it this time, Goheung Yuju, which I tasted at previous liquor fairs,
Compared to some yuzu, it is slightly less sweet and has a more pronounced acidity.
The higher the alcohol content, the higher the acidity tends to be.
I prefer high-alcohol, dry drinks.
The 12% Goheung Citron Wine suited my taste the best.

If you want to take home some citron liquor during your trip to Goheung, this is a place worth visiting.
Although there are no content elements such as tasting and brewing tours or detailed descriptions of the alcohol
The product descriptions in the pamphlet are well-written, so there is no difficulty in choosing.
It is located near the tourist area of Nokdong, so it is worth a visit if you stop by Nokdong.
