Dansul (Korean: 단술; pronounced [tan.sul]; lit. sweet wine) or gamju (감주; [kam.dʑu]) is a milky (or cloudy) Korean rice wine made with rice, glutinous rice, and nuruk (fermentation starter). Due to the incomplete fermentation of the rice, the wine has relatively low alcohol content (2‒3% ABV) and sweet and slightly tangy notes.
