Maesil Miju Green Plum Yakju

Maesil Miju is a Korean Yakju, a refined rice wine infused with the vibrant essence of Korean green plums. This 'other liquor' category expression from Baesangmyeonjuga balances a medium-sweet profile with refreshing acidity, revealing layers of plum, apricot, and subtle marzipan notes, culminating in a clean, sweet finish. Enjoy this versatile drink with fresh seasonal fruits or light Korean desserts to enhance its delicate flavor profile.

The bright acidity and subtle sweetness of Maesil Miju call for a dish that can both complement and contrast its delicate profile. Consider a traditional Korean summer dish like *Bibim Guksu*, cold wheat noodles tossed in a spicy and tangy gochujang sauce with crisp vegetables. Alternatively, a grilled *halloumi* salad with fresh mint and a squeeze of lemon provides a refreshing counterpoint to the plum wine's sweetness, creating a delightful Mediterranean-inspired harmony.
