Description
Sulsaem 19 is a 19% ABV spirit from Gyeonggi-do that layers ginger and domestically grown turmeric (ganghwang) over a base of neutral spirit and distilled soju. The dual-spice approach creates a distinctive warmth profile: ginger provides immediate peppery heat on the palate, while turmeric contributes a deeper, earthier, almost musky warmth that lingers into the finish. Refined sugar rounds out the texture, keeping the spice-forward character from becoming austere. The 375ml format and moderate-high ABV position it as a measured pour — one or two glasses alongside robust dishes like galbi, bossam, or sashimi. The producer Sulsaem, based in Gyeonggi-do, is known for a methodical approach to flavored soju expressions that prioritize ingredient clarity over sweetness.
