Reviews
I highly recommend this, as same-day reservations are possible! It was a lot of fun, and a Japanese interpreter assisted us. However, please be aware that if you have two take-home containers, they will take up about a quarter of the carry-on size for an LCC flight, and you won't be able to bring them back unless you check them as luggage. As mentioned in other reviews, the pickup location sent via email was incorrect; the correct location is the actual store. It's located off a side street from the bus stop, next to a hotel.
We had a wonderful and fun experience learning how to make traditional Korean liquor (Makgeolli)! The shop is conveniently located right beside Hotel Stay Hyun, and we were able to use the hotel’s parking lot, which made our visit even easier. Moon was our friendly and knowledgeable instructor, patiently guiding us through each step of the Makgeolli-making process. It was a fun, hands-on experience that gave us a better appreciation of how this traditional Korean rice wine is made. Overall, it was an enjoyable and memorable cultural experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to try something unique and authentic in Korea! Thanks Moon!
The address is wrong on the confirmation voucher. information was very misleading..managed to locate the place next door. Host told us that they did not get any notice from Kool but they were alright to proceed with the event
