Where is Moutai produced?

Moutai is produced in Maotai Town, renhuai city, Zunyi City, Guizhou Province.

Moutai is produced in Maotai Town, Chishui River, renhuai city, Guizhou Province, surrounded by mountains, and the situation is dangerous. It is the throat of land and water transportation in Sichuan and Guizhou. The water quality of Chishui River is pure and sweet, and it contains a small amount of minerals, which is just for wine making. Maotai liquor is named after it is produced in Maotai Town on the Chishui River in northern Guizhou. Because Maotai Town is located in the river valley, the wind speed is low, which is very conducive to the habitat and reproduction of microorganisms brewing Moutai.

Moutai is a traditional specialty wine in China. It is one of the three largest distilled spirits in the world, and is as famous as Scotch whisky and French cognac. It is the originator of Daqu Maotai-flavor liquor and the national wine of China. It has a history of more than 800 years. Maotai Town has always been a famous town in northern Guizhou.
