煮酒 Jaju (자주)
Jaju is wine heated in its vessel until it matures. The Grain section says only that the flavour is unusually fine and suits summer drinking, and lists beside it ihwaju (梨花酒), white and heady, a wine for spring and summer.

Its taste is exceptionally good, and it suits drinking in the summer months. 《Sokbang (俗方)》
