About K-Sool

When a special day approaches, you always struggle to come up with a pleasant surprise. Your parents, friends, lover all deserve something precious—every year. We are here to take the load off your shoulders. Here are five best sool gift ideas.

The natural wine has concentrated the nutrients and sweetness from the late harvest of grapes. Without any artificial additive or preservative, the wine will fill your mouth with natural flavors.

An ideal blend of Campbell grapes, Muscat Baily A (MBA), and Korean meoru wild grapes boosts the wine’s flavor. You will also notice a hint of fresh blackberries on the nose.

Cheonbihyang uses the oyangju technique, which means the takju has been fermented five times. The meticulous care that goes into the brewing fully raises the flavor.

Today’s brewing has restored a technique from the Joseon Dynasty, adding more decadent flavors. The takju is best to serve cold, adding a couple of ice cubes—drink and feel the crisp.

Sejongdaewang Eoju is a modern representation of yakju called byeokhyangju from the 1400s. The prototype yakju is found in Sangayorok, a recipe book written by a royal physician for King Sejong the Great. With simple ingredients of rice, nuruk, and water, the yakju boasts of delicate fruity and floral aroma. It uses the bedrock water from Chojeongri, a clean area where King Sejong used to recuperate. The resulting taste is refreshingly neat and sweet.

Jinmaek  Soju has the distinctively fresh scent of wheat flowers. It takes two long years to make a bottle. The soju comes at three different ABVs—a soft 22%, a rich and fragrant 40%, and a deep and heavy 53%. Pick a bottle to satisfy the palate of the lucky one who will get the bottle. 

Hongsam or red ginseng is a regular gift item for Korea’s traditional holidays. Hongsam Myeongju uses four-year-old red ginseng in the fermentation process. The pure liqueur retains red ginseng’s active ingredients and goes down your throat with clean smoothness. Red ginseng has a distinctive medicinal aroma, but surprisingly, it does not sting your nose in this drinkable liqueur. 

From red wine to takju, yakju, and liqueur, we have presented you with very Korean, and hence, unique alcohol options. No matter who receives the gift, you can choose an attractive bottle to please their taste.
