Description

Soho is a 36.5% ABV rice spirit from Gyeonggi-do that distinguishes itself through a thoughtful grain blend - Pyeongtaek rice in both sprouted brown rice and polished white rice forms - and the addition of bamboo leaf. The sprouted brown rice contributes a deeper, almost nutty grain complexity that white rice alone cannot provide, while the bamboo leaf introduces a clean, green herbal freshness. The nose opens with warm toasted grain, a subtle brown-rice nuttiness, and a distinctive green-leaf brightness that lifts the profile. A clean, slightly sweet rice note sits underneath. On the palate, the body is medium with a smooth, well-integrated texture. The dual-rice approach creates a layered grain experience: the white rice provides clean smoothness while the sprouted brown rice adds a toasted, deeper dimension. The bamboo leaf appears as a fresh, almost minty coolness that threads through the grain warmth, preventing any heaviness. The mid-palate is balanced and nuanced, with grain sweetness and green-leaf crispness in quiet dialogue. The finish is moderate, clean, and refreshing, with bamboo-leaf freshness lingering over soft grain warmth. At 350ml, serve slightly chilled or at room temperature with grilled meats, sashimi, or lighter Korean dishes where the green herbal note adds an unexpected freshness.
