I&#8217;ve never had this spirit before but I&#8217;m excited to try it with some Korean food tonight (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.maangchi.com\/recipe\/budae-jjigae\">budae jjigae<\/a>)!<\/p>\n<p>Clear, smells of neutral grain alcohol, or maybe a wheat based vodka. The taste is delicate and somewhat watery with flavors of rice, water, and Budweiser beer on a smooth, light body with just a touch of potato vodka richness. The finish is long and low in bitterness and without burn, featuring notes of potato vodka, crisped rice, and mineral water. Overall it&#8217;s not bad, it&#8217;s just basically a watered down vodka, albeit one made from a variety of grains instead of just one, which does seem to bring the best of all of them to the final product.
