Hwasim Soju Gun Rice
화심소주 군쌀
Hwasim Soju Gun Rice is a 25% ABV soju from Gyeonggi-do, distilled from roasted rice using whisky yeast at Hwasim Brewery. The roasted rice base — gun-ssal, literally fire-roasted rice — creates a toasty, caramelized grain character that ordinary raw rice cannot produce, while whisky yeast introduces fermentation nuances closer to Scotch distilling traditions than typical Korean brewing. The result is a uniquely cross-cultural spirit at 300ml, suited to grilled meats, smoked dishes, and any food where roasted, charred flavors create natural resonance.

Hwasim Soju Gungoguma
화심소주 군고구마
Hwasim Soju Gungoguma is a 25% ABV soju from Gyeonggi-do, distilled from roasted sweet potato using whisky yeast at Hwasim Brewery. Roasting the sweet potato before fermentation amplifies its natural caramel sweetness and adds a smoky depth, while whisky yeast introduces complex ester notes absent in conventional Korean distillation. The combination produces a spirit with a distinctly dessert-like warmth at 300ml, pairing compellingly with grilled pork, bossam, and charcoal-fired dishes where smoky sweetness finds its natural home.

Hwasim Oak Roasted Sweet Potato
화심오크 군고구마
Hwasim Oak Roasted Sweet Potato is a 58% ABV spirit from Gyeonggi-do, distilled entirely from domestic sweet potato. The extreme proof concentrates the roasted sweet potato character into a dense, assertive frame, yet the texture retains a surprising polish. Each sip opens with clean heat, then reveals deep caramelized root-vegetable nuance in the mid-palate. It is best enjoyed in small pours after grilled meat, where its power can reset the palate and its warmth can linger as a contemplative finish.
