Tasting Notes[edit]
- Sonbi Gin: Made in the London Dry Style with a focus on Korean ingredients. Sonbi has a citrus forward nose. The 12 botanicals that make up Sonbi are well balanced with sweet notes on the front and spice on the backend that make it a very versatile spirit for a wide range of cocktails.
- Sonbi Vodka: A clean refreshing light vodka made from Korean sticky rice that rounds off smooth. Column distilled and quadruple filtered for purity.
Artwork[edit]
The label has a drawing of a sonbi, virtuous scholars in the Goryeo and Joseon Dynasty who passed up positions of wealth and power to lead lives of study and integrity. The background drawings are different for each type of alcohol produced. Sŏnbi Vodka has a drawing of onggi and Sŏnbi Gin has a drawing of a turtle ship.
