Magic green bottle

Is there any shops/markets in dublin that sell soju?
I know that it can be bought in bars and restaurants - kimchi and arisu at least, but i, pretty sure that the oorean food stores do not sell it. Never seen it any other off-licence, anyone know where it can be found?

You can find it in the Asian market on Drury St, plus I think I've seen it in the Korean store in the Italian quarter.

Been in both recently but haven't seen it...will check asia marjet on Drury st again as I did see them selling sake and tsingtao...never saw any alcohol sold in the one in the Italian quarter

They have a new soju over here that's taking Korea by storm.
Basically flavoured soju

Citrus soju , blueberry soju and passionfruit soju.
So much better than the normal stuff, I'll be trying to bring 1 or 2 bottles home when I get back...as I assume there is no chance of finding it in Ireland

Did you check Coreana (little britain street)...surely they have some?

Possibly not due to licencing I guess:

No, they have none.
I know asia market sell tsingtao, sake, and other alcohol, but never saw soju there unfortunately...

On a complete wing and a prayer, anyone know of anywhere in the Midlands or south of the country where I could pick up a few bottles of Soju? Rarely in Dublin, yet alone near markets. I'd even be happy to buy online if possible. Have friends back from Korea and would like to treat them to a few drinks, as well as the fact that I like the stuff

Doubtful... only shop ive seen it for sale in was asia market in dublin, and then its only sporadically. even the korean shops dont stock it (cant sell alcohol?) Can buy it from a number of the korean restaurants around dublin, or try and order it from amazon or a uk seller and use parcel motel - not sure what the legalities re excise and customs are on that
