Their story
Seoul Tonic was started in 2021 by Sophie Hood, working alongside Mr Parks, a third-generation Korean pear farmer. Their aim is to bring Korean drinking and wellness habits, like a sip of drinking vinegar the morning after a night out, to Western shoppers.
The brand began as a hangover remedy and has been widening into a broader wellness line, sold in health food stores, supermarkets and gyms.
How it's made
The tonics lean on a short list of ingredients. One recovery blend uses just three: Korean pear juice, apple cider vinegar and red ginseng, developed over more than 18 months using traditional Korean fermentation methods. The drinks come in easy-to-carry pouches.
It's not about what you just put on your body anymore, it's about what you put in it.
Why we carry them
We like how simple this is: pear, vinegar and ginseng in a pouch you can toss in a bag. A smart thing to keep on hand for the morning after.
