IMPORTER OF GREAT TASTE
IB Fine Wines is a family-run importer and distributor of beverages. We started our business in 2009 by importing wines from France. Since then, we have focused on the Old World wines, and today we cooperate with small and medium-sized producers from different places in Europe. Here, we can still find hidden gems and noble drops that have yet to reach Norway. At the same time, we keep an eye on the rest of the world. For instance, in South Korea we found Hite-Jinro Co., the producer of the spirit Soju, which we now import on an exclusive basis.
Regardless of where we search, quality is our compass. We always look for products that are rooted in regional food culture and which are authentic and stand out.
Through actively participating in industry and consumer fairs, we build knowledge and demand in the Norwegian market for our products and suppliers.
Grete Borten is a certified DipWSET and the CEO of IB Fine Wines.

SOJU FROM SOUTH KOREA
Soju is Korea’s unofficial national drink and is deeply rooted in Korean food culture. Through our exclusive cooperation with Hite-Jinro Coin Seoul, we have the pleasure of offering five popular variations of Jinro Soju to the Norwegian market.
The classical product, Jinro Soju Chamisul Fresh– the world’s most sold spirit – is made of rice, barley, sweet potato and tapioca. This is a clear spirit with a clean flavour and a light, sweetish touch. It is best enjoyed cold, served in small glasses with a meal, perhaps next to a beer – quite similar to our Scandinavian traditions with akvavit. Soju is perhaps most enjoyable as an aperitif or a palate cleanser along with Korean dishes, such as Bibimbap, Kimchi and Bulgogi.
Jinro soju is also an excellent base for various cocktails.
On top of that, we offer four flavoured variations of Jinro soju:strawberry, grapefruit, green grapes and plum.
