Hana Soju

NOTES

In collaboration with Matchbook Distilling Co.,Hana Makgeoll introduces their first ever distillate, Hana Soju 60. A still strength soju, aged in glass, Hana Soju 60 is a traditionally made soju carefully crafted from organically grown rice, nuruk and time. Born out of the desire to share the rich and bold possibilities of jeontongju (traditional Korean alcohols), Hana Soju 60 is all at once, fruity, earthy and floral.

Each bottle of this small run was assembled lovingly by the teams at Hana Makgeolli and Matchbook Distilling Co. Any person pouring from a bottle of Hana Soju 60 has the opportunity to taste it as originally tasted, straight off the still.

The spirit is derived from Hana Makgeolli's signature brew, Takju. The 100 day ferment is ripe with complexity and as a means to preserve and amplify as much of it as possible the wine is distilled to proof and left untouched for nine months in glass demijohns prior to bottling at the natural 60% abv.
