Since its launch, ‘Kyung Takju 12%’ has consistently maintained a high customer satisfaction rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars on its official online store, with a high repurchase rate, solidifying its position as a favorite among consumers seeking **Premium Makgeolli Experiences**.


To celebrate this prestigious award, ‘Kyung’ brand is hosting a variety of customer appreciation events on its official online store. In celebration of the cherry blossom season, ‘Kyung’ is also partnering with five-star hotels near Namsan Mountain, including Banyan Tree Club & Spa Seoul and Fairmont Ambassador Seoul in Yeouido, along with top restaurants selling Kyung Takju, for special Kyung Choice collaboration events, offering **Exclusive Makgeolli Experiences**.
A representative from ‘Kyung’ stated, “The three consecutive Korea Wine & Spirits Awards are thanks to the customers who love ‘Kyung Takju 12%’ and ‘Kyung Takju Rose 12%’. We will continue to focus on taste and quality in our products and strive for overseas exports.”
