What kind of experience is it for foreigners to drink Chinese liquor?

Working in a foreign company for a few years, every time the headquarters sends foreigners, one of the things I do most is to accompany the foreigners to taste Chinese liquor. From Red Star Erguotou to Moutai Wuliangye, I almost drank all the different price and degree of liquor.?

The company's foreigners come from Poland, adjacent to Russia, and their favorite drink at parties is vodka. Chinese liquor is similar to vodka in appearance, so the first time they recommended Chinese liquor to the foreigners, they were still very easy to accept. But due to different drinking habits, some of them will fall in love with Chinese white wine, while others will be after a taste of Chinese white wine "talk about white wine color change".

I once tried a 42-degree shochu and a 53-degree shochu for foreigners at a dinner party, and the foreigners had two very different reactions.

Tasting 42 degrees of white wine, the foreigners said they could accept, just a little spicy, not very strong, and finish half a glass of Chinese white wine and then drink a sip of drink rinsing the mouth, there is no feeling, of course, they also said, if you can add a little ice or refrigerated will be better. They said they would be happy to drink several bottles of Chinese baijiu like this.

Tried 53 degrees of baijiu, the expression of the foreigners are bright, the same breath to finish half a cup of baijiu, they almost sprayed out, have said it is too spicy, and from the throat to the stomach are hot and spicy, they said they are going to burn up, and then they try to use the drink to blend the high degree of baijiu, when the carbonated drinks mixed with the high degree of baijiu, the kind of strange flavor, completely covered the Chinese The original flavor of the white wine, the rest is just bitter.

They said they were puzzled by the fact that the white wine, which is also similar to vodka, was mixed with the drink, and how it tasted even worse.

In fact, the reason is very simple, vodka is a distilled alcoholic beverages, generally more will be multiple distillation, so as to achieve the effect of more pure, due to the wine contains fewer impurities, pure taste, and can be mixed with other drinks. Most Chinese liquor is blended, and the recipe for the spice blend is kept secret. Because of the complexity of the ingredients inside Chinese liquor, it is tantamount to poison for foreigners who do not know how to taste it.
