Ki One Unicorn from Three Societies Distillery is a Korean single malt whisky aged 21 months in virgin American oak. Bottled at 56.6% ABV, it is priced at approximately $100 in South Korea.
Bearing in mind Malt’s official scoring metrics, we have to consider that for its age and small volume this is a pricey expression, especially after factoring in Korean production costs. Yet it isn’t every day that I get to be impressed by a “New World” single malt. At least this hasn’t gotten old for me yet.
