The esteemed comprehensive liquor evaluation event, "Korea Liquor Awards," will be held from March 7 to 9 at the Seoul Trade Exhibition and Convention (SETEC) in Gangnam, Seoul.
The Korea Liquor Awards was first held in 2014 to discover various domestic and international liquors. Since then, it has selected outstanding spirits through blind tastings involving over 100 judges across various categories such as soju, beer, whiskey, traditional liquor, wine, sake, and baekju each year.
Last year's evaluation saw a record participation of 1,061 brands, garnering significant attention.
This year, even more liquors are expected to be submitted. Applications for submission can be made through the Yosool Partners website (biz.yosool.co.kr) until February 5.
The 2025 Korea Liquor Awards Expo will showcase this year's award-winning products first. A diverse range of liquors will be exhibited, providing a differentiated experience compared to existing liquor expos that often focus on specific categories. Additionally, attendees will have the opportunity to purchase liquors at special discounted prices.
During the expo, various side events will take place, including the Korea Liquor Awards ceremony, a forum to promote the liquor industry, stand-up comedy, an auction show, and a prize draw. Attendees will receive various souvenirs such as eco-bags, bottled water, and sparkling water.
Until the 19th, there is an early bird period during which tickets can be purchased at a 50% discount compared to on-site prices. We hope for significant interest and participation in this expo, where the trends of the liquor industry can be viewed at a glance.
