Production & Heritage

Han Jan — meaning "one glass" in Korean — is a line of flavored spirits produced in South Korea. At 12% ABV, the Grape expression sits in the same low-proof territory as traditional Korean soju, a category that has gained significant international traction. The brand offers a range of fruit flavors including melon, lychee, apple, blueberry, ginger, and mandarin orange, with the Grape variant channeling the popularity of grape-flavored spirits long favored in Korean drinking culture. The spirit is designed for easy, social drinking rather than contemplative sipping.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh grape, candied fruit, and a faint floral lift. The nose is straightforward and immediately fruit-forward, with a sweetness reminiscent of Concord grape.

Taste: The palate opens with ripe grape flavor and a soft, lightly sweet texture. Mid-palate, the grape character remains dominant with a gentle, almost juice-like quality. The low ABV keeps the mouthfeel smooth and devoid of any significant alcohol heat.

Finish: Short and clean with a lingering grape candy sweetness. The finish fades quickly, making it easy to reach for another pour.

How to Drink Han Jan Grape

Best served well chilled — straight from the freezer or over ice. The low proof makes it an ideal base for refreshing, low-ABV cocktails. Try it in a Grape Spritz topped with sparkling water and a squeeze of lime for an effervescent summer drink. It works well in a Korean Yakult Cocktail, blending with Yakult yogurt drink for a creamy, tangy combination popular in Korean bars. A Grape Soju Bomb — dropped into a light Korean lager — follows the traditional Korean "somaek" drinking ritual with added fruit flavor.

Best For

• Casual gatherings where guests prefer lighter, fruit-forward drinks
• Introducing friends to Korean drinking culture and soju-style spirits
• Stocking a home bar with versatile low-ABV mixers
• Pairing with Korean BBQ or other bold, savory cuisines
