HWAYO X.Premium was released in Jan 2013 as a limited edition to celebrate the 10th anniversary of HWAYO. This rice whisky is an innovative creation, maturing rice distilled soju, HWAYO 41, in American Oak Barrels. The flavour is uniquely complex with a hint of vanilla in the beginning and a mild taste of rice to finish.

Despite its long ageing, this minimum 30-month blend is not overtly sweet or oaky; it has a drier style, which is full of spice and character from its highland terroir. Cooked agave is present with a fine mixture of dried fruits, almonds and roasted coffee. There is a subtle and masked fudginess reminiscent of dark cocoa that emerges from the depth in its long and slightly dry finish.

Each 500ml spirit lid is manually dipped in wax with a silver foil swing tag, presented in a hand wax dripped, thick cardboard cylinder box. As each Gift Box is manually waxed, no two boxes are the same, some minor organic imperfections may be visible.Tequila:Mexican derived Tequila is traditionally served neat without lime and salt.
