This was a one-of-a-kind experience, and Joe was a great teacher, answering all our questions along the way. He shared a lot about the history of makgeolli in an engaging way and we got to taste different types of makgeolli. The hands-on part of the class was fun, and we walked away with our own makgeolli.

I had so much fun in this class. Joe is fun and very knowledgeable about makgeolli history. He also allowed me to taste many different types of makgeolli. At the end of the workshop, I could take a pot of fermenting rice back home. After a week, the fermenting was done, and my family enjoyed that! I highly recommend this experience!

Great experience. You learn about makgeolli by taste as well as get a bit of history. Then you make your own! You get a lot of information in a helpful and fun manner. Good times!
