Throwing a party would be incomplete without drink, and as Korean culture spreads across the country, so does Korean Soju!
The Korean craze, known as “Hallyu,” initially came in the Philippines a decade ago, when Koreanovelas, K-Pop, and Korean cuisine were shown on television, and its popularity doubled owing to social media.
As a result, numerous soju-based drinks and even flavored soju have surfaced in our local shops, and as well as Korean cafés to pair with their delicacies.
But what’s the Original Soju?
Filipinos are familiar with Soju, but if you google ” Korean Soju,” you’ll almost certainly come across the brand JINRO. Jinro is the largest manufacturer of soju accounting for half of all white spirits sold in South Korea.
HITEJINRO, Korea’s largest liquor company, produces JINRO Soju and for more than 90 years, HITEJINRO has produced great soju workmanship and is even considered to be the world’s oldest soju brand!
