Jeongane 61 Degrees

Description

Jeongane 61 Degrees is a 61% ABV distilled spirit from Gyeonggi-do, produced by Sulbijneun Jeongane Brewery using a rice base enhanced with 0.77% young silvergrass shoots and 0.19% jicho (lithospermum) root. At 61%, this is among the highest-proof Korean traditional spirits available, yet the botanical additions of silvergrass and jicho create layered herbal complexity rather than pure alcohol burn. The 250ml bottle is sized for measured, ceremonial sipping rather than volume drinking. Jicho is the same root used in Jindo hongju, here adding an earthy, slightly medicinal warmth.
