It comes to be an everyday drink with peculiar taste and high nutritive value.

Its making-method is very easy, but varies a little with the locality.

There are many old Korean proverbs for the tea like "Making an order for scorched-grain tea in barley field" and "Asking for scorched-grain tea at the well side".

The tea and its making-method were recently listed as one of national intangible heritages in the DPRK.
