Named after the ancient Korean word for dragon, this authentic craft soju offers a pure experience that stands worlds apart from mass-produced green-bottle varieties. Crafted from locally grown rice and fermented with traditional wild wheat starters, the spirit is distilled in custom copper pots and aged for a full year in porous Onggi clay jars. This time-honored maturation process naturally smooths the spirit, creating an irresistibly silky texture with delicate notes of steamed rice, sweet cream, and subtle nuttiness. It is a fantastic bottle to share over dinner, pairing effortlessly with grilled meats, fresh seafood, or savory small plates.
