Shaanxi is a country of etiquette, with a broad and profound wine table culture.

But when talking about Shaanxi, the first thing that many people think of may be Qin Shi Huang’s Terracotta Warriors, Mount Huashan, the Yellow Emperor’s Mausoleum, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and other famous attractions. When it comes to liquor, many people may not have much of an impression of it.

You know, in the past, Shaanxi liquor was also very prestigious. Back then, Shaanxi's Xifeng Liquor could be said to be as famous as Moutai. It completely brought Shaanxi liquor to the forefront and was the pride of the Shaanxi people.

However, this also gives many people the illusion that there seems to be only Xifeng wine in Shaanxi, and other liquors are not famous!

In fact, in addition to Xifeng wine, Shaanxi still has many good wines. These three "unlucky wines" from Shaanxi were once well-known to every household, but later they gradually became less famous and many people didn't know about them.

1. Baishui Dukang

Speaking of Dukang wine, many people think of Dukang wine from Henan. This wine seems to have never been famous. But in fact, this wine is known as the "veteran" of the wine industry and has a long brewing history.

This wine is made from sorghum and rice as raw materials, using ancient traditional techniques and modern technology. It has the flavor of "clear and transparent, rich aroma, mellow and sweet, and long aftertaste".

Originally, the development was very smooth, but the trademark competition for the word "Dukang" still caused a considerable impact. It can only become a "unlucky wine".

2. Taibai liquor

This liquor, like Xifeng liquor, is a Feng-flavor liquor. Leveraging on the reputation of Xifeng Wine, this wine has developed very well.

This wine has been blended through different fermentation periods and different ages. The resulting wine is sweet and refreshing, sour but not astringent, sweet but not greasy, bitter but not sticky, spicy but not choking.

However, after all, Fengxiang type is relatively niche, and it originally relies on famous wines such as Xifeng wine to take the lead. The decline of Xifeng Liquor has had a considerable impact on the entire Feng-flavor liquor market in Shaanxi. This wine is no exception.

3. Chenggu Tequ

This wine is called "Shaanxi Wuliangye" and is very popular in Hanzhong and even the entire northern Shaanxi region. Around the 1980s, you could basically see this wine on various occasions.

This wine is made through long-term fermentation in artificial old cellars, slow fire distillation, graded aging, careful blending and other processes. It has the characteristics of clear and transparent, rich aroma, sweet and refreshing, and mellow wine quality.

But I don’t know why, this wine suddenly disappeared. After returning again, his reputation is no longer what it was back then! By the way, does anyone know the reason?

In fact, Shaanxi liquor is not the only one in this situation. Liquor in many places has such a dilemma. So are these 2 wines.

1. Yuande Imitation Taiwan Liquor

This wine belongs to Guizhou’s “Dark Horse” liquor. The liquid is soft and sweet, mellow and smooth, with a sweet aftertaste, which is completely integrated. Since its birth, it has been called "Little Maotai".

When it first came out, this wine achieved good sales. However, because it underestimated the importance of publicity, it could only be busy studying the quality of the wine. Therefore, the best opportunity was missed.

2. Songhe Liangye

This wine is a well-established liquor from Henan. It has a sweet aftertaste, harmonious flavors and a pure aroma. In the 1990s, he was called the "boss" of Zhongyuan Winery. Back then, there was really no need to worry about the sales of this wine.

However, in the late 1990s, the advertising industry gradually emerged, and many wines caught up with the pace of advertising and marketing and emerged one after another. However, this wine failed to make changes in time, and the gap between it and other wines widened.

The biggest problem with these two wines is that they failed to seize the opportunity during development. In fact, the quality of the wine itself is quite good! I still hope they develop well!
