Xinghuacun Liquor and Fenjiu are produced by the same manufacturer, and are both products of Shanxi Xinghuacun Fenjiu Group. Shanxi Xinghuacun Fenjiu Group Co., Ltd. was established in March 2002. It mainly produces and sells Fenjiu, Zhuye Qingjiu and Xinghuacun Liquor. The company's main business is the production and operation of China's famous wines - Fenjiu and Zhuye Qingjiu. It also owns my country's famous brand "Xinghuacun".

Fenjiu has a brewing history of 6,000 years and a brand history of 300 years. It is a veritable Chinese time-honored brand.
Although Xinghuacun Liquor and Fenjiu belong to the same manufacturer, and both belong to particularly well-known series, there are fundamental differences between Xinghuacun Liquor and Fenjiu. Xinghuacun Liquor has a relatively mellow taste and a more natural taste, but the price is relatively low. It is a low-end mass brand liquor, so it has always been loved by the people.
However, Fenjiu takes a relatively high-end route. Fenjiu is better than Xinghuacun Liquor in terms of production technology and selection of raw materials, and there are also many features in the outer packaging. The big difference is that this is a common liquor for business banquets and gifts.
How to distinguish
Look at the trademark: the trademark of authentic Fenjiu is Fenjiu Co., Ltd., while the trademark of group wine is the trademark of Fenjiu Group;
Look at the factory address: The place of origin marked on the packaging of the joint-stock wine is Xinghua Village, Fenyang City, Shanxi Province. As for the group wines, since there are many subordinate wineries, the places of production are naturally diverse, and some even have no factory address.
Fenjiu
Shanxi Fenjiu is an ancient historical wine in my country, produced in Xinghua Village, Fenyang City, Shanxi Province. Exactly when the name Fenjiu originated requires further research, but as early as more than 1,400 years ago, the name "Fenqing" existed here.
According to the "Book of Northern Qi", Gao Zhan, Emperor Wucheng of the Northern Qi Dynasty, wrote from Jinyang to Xiaoyu, King of Kangshu, Henan, saying: "I drank two cups of Fenqing. I advise you to drink two cups in Ye." "Beishan Wine Classic" records. "Dry wine was produced in Fenzhou in the Tang Dynasty", and "Jiu Ning Ji" states that "Ganlu Hall in Fenzhou was the most famous in the Song Dynasty", all of which are referring to Fen wine. Of course, there was no distilled wine in my country more than 1,400 years ago, and the "Fen Qing" and "Gan Niang" recorded in historical data were all rice wines.
Technological Progress
After the Song Dynasty, due to the advancement of alchemy technology, distillation equipment was invented in our country. A steel pot for distilling wine from the Jin Dynasty unearthed from Qinglong County, Hebei Province in 1975 can prove that distilled wine existed in my country at least during the Song Dynasty. my country's liquor, including Fenjiu and other famous liquors, all evolved and developed from rice wine. After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, white wine in the north developed rapidly and gradually replaced rice wine production. At this time, Xinghua Village Fenjiu was already a distilled wine and became famous in the world.
