Hansan Sogokju
│ DESCRIPTION │
Sogokju is a traditional Korean liquor first made in Baekje and has history of nearly 1,500 years. Hansan Sogokju is the modern recreation of Sogokju after its long-awaited absence. You’ll enjoy its rich and authentic taste and flavor, which have been vividly recorded since ancient times.
With its long history, Sogokju has many associated stories: after the fall of Baekje about 1,500 years ago, its displaced people were said to brew Sogokju to overcome their deep resentment and sorrow in white mourning garments; a seonbi (scholar) moving to Seoul to take the gwageo (national civil service examination) put up in an inn near Hansan (Mt. Han) but had to go back to his home as he failed to take the test while enjoying Sogokju; a host offered Sogokju to the guest and the guest fell asleep after drinking too much Sogokju as it was very delicious; and a thief broke into a house but was caught as the thief was drunk on Sogokju. Such interesting anecdotes give Sogokju as well as Hansan Sogokju the nickname of “a liquor that makes you unable to walk.”
Hansan Sogokju is a Korea’s high-class traditional liquor with high volume of alcohol and sweet flavor. Once you drink it, you can’t stop it and you would never realize the alcohol is beginning to take effect. It would be too late when you try to stand up but fail. That’s the reason why such interesting stories surrounding Hansan Sogokju exists and Hansan Sogokju has the nickname.
