Soju has come a long way from being Korea’s best-kept secret to becoming a worldwide favorite. Among the many brands, Jinro stands tall as the number one choice for millions. Known for its smooth taste, approachable strength, and versatility. And now, the good news: these bottles of liquid cheer are available right here in Indonesia, including a fresh new flavor you’ll definitely want to try.
A Quick Sip of History
Founded in 1924, Jinro is practically synonymous with soju itself. In fact, it has held the title of the world’s best-selling spirit for over two decades. Unlike stronger liquors, soju was designed to be shared and perfect for raising a glass with friends. Jinro’s popularity exploded beyond Korea’s borders as travelers, K-drama fans, and foodies alike discovered how well it pairs with everything from barbecue to late-night snacks.
The Classic Freshness: Chamisul
If you’re new to soju, start with the legend: Jinro Chamisul Fresh. This is the signature “clear” soju that has set the standard for generations. With its clean finish and just the right balance between smooth and crisp, Chamisul is both easy to sip and endlessly versatile. Think of it as the little black dress of soju, always appropriate and never out of style.
The Flavor Adventure
Of course, Jinro isn’t just about tradition. Its flavored soju line has become a worldwide favorite, offering light, fruity spins that make soju even more approachable. Here’s the lineup you can enjoy:
-
Grapefruit: Refreshing, tangy, and slightly bittersweet, this one balances the sharpness of citrus with a soft soju base. It’s zesty without being overwhelming, perfect for those who like a drink with personality.
