Dalho Soju Original 375mL

DALHO Original Soju

Soju | 17% ABV | 34 Proof | 375mL | Grain-Based Spirit | Clean & Lightly Sweet | Smooth Finish | Shareable Format

Process & Profile

DALHO Original Soju is the classic expression in Sazerac’s new DALHO lineup, offering a clean, lightly sweet profile with a smooth finish. Created as a modern interpretation of Korea’s iconic social spirit, DALHO is designed around the tradition of enjoying soju alongside food, celebrations, and gatherings with friends.

DALHO is made with grain neutral spirits and spirits distilled from grain with natural flavors and bottled at 17% ABV (34 proof). The Original expression keeps the focus on the spirit’s crisp, approachable character rather than the fruit-forward profiles found in DALHO Peach, Strawberry, and Lychee.

The 375mL bottle is DALHO’s shareable format and contains approximately eight DALHO-sized shots. Its moderate strength and smooth profile make it easy to enjoy well chilled, poured into a traditional soju glass, paired with beer, or mixed into refreshing highballs.
