The 100 Year Liquor

Have you ever dreamed that you could drink your way to longevity?  The next time you’re at our Bellevue Korean restaurant, try ordering a bottle of Korea’s own baek-se-ju, or “one hundred year liquor”.  This wine is not only a fine complement to many Korean meals, but it also derives its name from the old belief that anybody who partakes of the drink habitually would live for one hundred years.

The powers of baek-se-ju come from that fact that it is made from a mix of herbs, chief among them being ginseng.  This valuable herb boasts a long list of scientifically-demonstrated benefits, including the following:

  • Boosts the immune system

  • Helps to manage blood sugar levels

  • Increases energy and endurance

  • Prevents certain cancers

  • Increases mental clarity and learning ability

  • Reduces stress

  • Lowers cholesterol levels

  • Increases virility in men

  • Decreases symptoms of PMS in women

So come to Seoul Hot Pot and try a glass of baek-se-ju.  It might just have you coming back for more many, many years into the future!
