Fake herb scandal hits liquor industry

Now it is the liquor business that is facing the consequences.
Bekseju, a rice wine manufactured by Kooksoondang, has been found to contain cheaper but banned Cynanchumauriculatum royal, instead of Cynanchumwilfordii, or “baeksuo,” according to the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.
