OORO 40

Crafted in the serene hills of Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province, OORO represents the pinnacle of modern Korean distillation. Each expression is made meticulously with organic Chamsari rice, handcrafted fresh nuruk, and 100% purified water. Distilled in an 18-plate copper pot German Kothe Still, one of the world's most renowned distillation equipment brands, OORO delivers extraordinary purity, smoothness and complexity. OORO 40 is a balanced, strong soju with subtle fruit notes and the natural depth of rice. 500mL, 40% ABV.  Tasting Profile: On the palate, it delivers a fleeting hint of grain that quickly gives way to a pervasive sweetness. The alcohol warmth is well-balanced. You'll first experience a concentrated sweetness on the tip of your tongue, followed by a lingering spiciness. The sweetness persists for a long time, and as the spiciness in your throat fades, the alcohol sensation gently rises from your chest. Serving Recommendations: We recommend enjoying this spirit simply on the rocks or as a base for various highball cocktails, such as a sparkling highball or oolong highball. Suggested Pairings:  This spirit pairs exceptionally well with warm, flavorful dishes like braised meat and hot stews.
