Andong Souvenir Selection and Prices (As of May 2026)

🍶 Traditional Andong Soju

The absolute icon of the region: Andong Soju!

Unlike mass-produced green-bottle soju, this is a premium distilled spirit made from 100% domestic rice. It has a rich, deep aroma and a surprisingly smooth finish despite its high alcohol percentage.

Lately, they have also introduced a local green grape wine,

giving travelers even more unique options.

The bottles themselves are works of art—many come in ceramic bottles shaped like traditional Hahoe Masks (Yangban mask) or classic Korean flasks.

They make for beautiful display pieces long after the spirit is gone.

With various sizes and very reasonable starting prices,

they are excellent high-quality gifts for parents, hosts, or foreign friends!

If you are worried about carrying heavy bottles on the bus, you can also easily order these artisanal spirits online.

🐟 Andong Salted Mackerel

Andong Salted Mackerel (Gan-godeungeo) has a fascinating history.

Because Andong is located inland, mackerel had to be transported from the coast. To prevent spoiling, it was heavily salted, which naturally cured the fish under the sun and wind, resulting in an incredibly savory, chewy texture.

At the specialty shop, they sell it in clean, vacuum-sealed packs that are easy to carry.

Prices vary depending on the size and quantity, making it easy to find something that fits your budget!

Andong Jjimdak (Braised Chicken)

You can even buy frozen meal kits of authentic Andong Jjimdak!

Honestly, it is hard to replicate that deep, rich local flavor anywhere else...

If your itinerary didn't allow time to visit the famous Jjimdak Alley in the traditional market,

or if you want to recreate that savory-sweet, spicy flavor at home, this is a must-buy.
