Baesangmyun Brewery’s sansachun, rice wine brewed with cornus fruits and hawthornberry, won the bronze prize at the 2014 Monde Selection’s Spirit & Liqueurs section, the brewery said Tuesday.

Sansachun, with 14 percent alcohol, is said to have both smooth and fragrant flavors due to its raw-rice fermentation technology. It has become one of the best sellers of the Baesangmyun Brewery since its launch in 1997.

Monde Selection, an international institute for quality selection, is said to be one of the world’s top three awards in regards to alcohol assessments alongside the International Wine Spirit Competition and San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
