What is Xoju?
Xoju is a distinguished producer of artisanal beverages, specializing in handcrafted spirits. The company's flagship product involves a meticulous process of crushing, squeezing, and fermenting 21 hand-picked apples from Mungyeong, Korea. Quince is then steeped in these fermented apple juices to impart a rich, natural aroma. The initial distillation utilizes a Charente-style copper distiller, a method renowned for producing fine cognacs. A second distillation, incorporating plums for fermentation, is conducted twice in another Charente-style copper distiller. The resulting distilled spirits are artfully blended and aged for four months in traditional Korean porcelain vessels, highlighting a commitment to quality and heritage.
