Makgeolli Omakase Pairing — The closing night of SOOL WEEK 2026.

The closing night of SOOL WEEK 2026.

An omakase at Sushi UEHARA, paired with six makgeolli from Jiranjigyo — including No.3, the brewery's collaboration with Chef Koji of Sushi Koji, and one new bottling debuting for the first time at this dinner.

About Sushi UEHARA

Sushi UEHARA has operated in Hong Kong for over 11 years, run by a Japanese chef known for his palate for both sushi and alcohol. The omakase counter is a regular gathering point for Hong Kong's Japanese community.

About Jiranjigyo

Jiranjigyo is one of Korea's most respected artisan makgeolli breweries, based in Sunchang, Korea.

The brewery is surrounded by fig orchards, and cultures its nuruk — the traditional fermentation starter — among the fig trees. The result is a makgeolli with distinctive fig and coconut notes, balanced by a clean acidity.

Jiranjigyo is poured at Michelin-starred restaurants across Asia.

The Six Bottles

Six makgeolli from Jiranjigyo will be poured across the evening, including:

• No.3 — developed with Chef Koji of Sushi Koji, calibrated for sushi: raw fish, vinegared rice, and the rhythm of an omakase course
• One new bottling, debuting for the first time at this dinner
• Plus four additional expressions from the Jiranjigyo range
