Top Ten Sauce-flavor Chinese Liquor in China

Ten Maotai-flavor liquors in China: Maotai, Langjiu, Guizhou Xijiu, Guotai, Jinsha, Zhenjiu, Laimao, Diaoyutai, Guo Kang and Tanjiu.

1, Maotai

The style and quality characteristics of Kweichow Moutai are "outstanding sauce flavor, elegant and delicate, full-bodied, long aftertaste and lasting fragrance in empty cups". Its special style comes from the unique traditional brewing technology formed over the years, and the brewing method is combined with the agricultural production in Chishui River basin.

2. Langjiu

Langjiu is the only Maotai-flavor brand among the "Six Golden Flowers" in Sichuan. Langjiu also inherits the traditional craft, but it also has local characteristics. Compared with the traditional Maotai-flavor liquor, Langjiu also combines the advantages of Sichuan Luzhou-flavor liquor and tastes sweet and sour. Langjiu is as popular as Maotai in Sichuan. Langjiu is the best and most representative series, namely Qinghualang and safflower lang.

3. Guizhou wine.

Xijiu takes local high-quality waxy sorghum as raw material and wheat as high-temperature Daqu, which is made by saccharification, secondary feeding, eight fermentations, nine distillations, sealed storage and careful blending. It tastes of maotai liquor. Maotai-flavor liquor is more fragrant as it ages. With the increase of storage time, there are fewer and fewer free alcohol molecules, so it feels not spicy, mellow and sweet when drinking.

4. National Taiwan Province

The styles of Guotai and Maotai are very similar, both bitter and heavy, but compared with Maotai, both are sour and thin, similar to the quality of Maotai series wine. There are not many product lines in Taiwan Province, mainly in the high-end market. It is suggested to adopt the national standards of Taiwan Province 15 and Taiwan Province.

5. Jinsha wine industry

Jinsha is also a geographical landmark product in Guizhou, but it is located in Jinsha production area, not Chishui Valley where sauce and wine gather, so its style is quite different from that of sauce and wine around Maotai Town. On the basis of the original traditional sauce-flavor technology, Jinsha technology was changed to two rounds of fermentation, with thick and oily wine body, high ester content, very mellow entrance, less bitterness and strong sweetness.

6. Precious wine

Zunyi City, where Zhenjiu is located, is at a higher altitude, and its temperature and humidity are different from those of Maotai Town, which leads to the different flavor of the wine even though the process is the same. Zhen wine tastes heavy and bitter, not as rich and long as Maotai, but it is cost-effective, and it is also loved by many drinkers.

7. Lai Mao

As an important brand of Maotai, Laimao has been developing steadily. Lai Mao was one of the predecessors of Maotai in history. It is recommended that Lai Mao inherit it. The acidity and sauce flavor are skillfully controlled, which not only retains the flavor of Mao, but also is not so strong, which is acceptable to friends who are new to the "sauce door".

8. Diaoyutai Wine Industry

At the earliest time, Diaoyutai basically did not sell to the outside world, mainly doing reception wine and customized wine. In terms of wine style, Diaoyutai is more like Maotai, purer, more bitter and less sweet than the national platform of Maotai Town. Friends who are used to drinking the traditional Maotai sauce will like this mellow wine, and novices may be a little too rich.

9. Guo Kang wine

Guo Kang Liquor is located in Maotai Town, and its technology has inherited the traditional Maotai-flavor brewing technology. It is made of renhuai city local red tassel sorghum through 1 year brewing and 5 years storage. The quality of the wine is very good, reaching the quality of some high-end wines.

10, Tanjiu

Tanjiu and Langjiu are very similar in style. Sichuan sauce is sour and sweet, and the bitterness is weakened. The two wineries are also in Luzhou, not far apart. It is said that Langjiu was bought from Tanjiu when the production capacity was insufficient. The quality of the base liquor of Tanjiu is excellent, but the blending level is slightly lacking. The product tastes a little plastic, but the price is relatively cheap, and it is also a good substitute.
