Deer antler and agarwood honey pills for energy: Handong Hyoryeokhwan
Hyoryeokhwan by Handong Nokyong Yeonguso (Handong Nokyong Research Institute, Handong Deer Antler Research Institute) is a chimhyang deer antler pill made from 18 traditional ingredients, including New Zealand deer antler, agarwood, antler shavings and brewer's yeast, all bound with honey. Given as a Chuseok gift to a father whose energy had dropped, Hyoryeokhwan became his daily routine of one pill chewed on an empty stomach each morning, with no strong herbal-medicine smell and a chewy texture. Traditional bojagi wrapping and a premium shopping bag make Hyoryeokhwan an easy holiday gift to hand over.
