With the promulgation of the national light industry revitalization plan, the golden sign of "China's Liquor Capital" has also come to Yibin. On December 19, 2009, this crown was jointly awarded by the China Light Industry Federation and the China Brewery Industry Association. Yibin, the first city along the Yangtze River, is one of the birthplaces of Chinese wine culture. Since ancient times, Yibin has been a place that has nothing to do with wine. The wine in Yibin has attracted countless literati and poets, and the poems and poems in Yibin are like springs and rivers. Yibin is the epitome of Chinese wine culture and is the well-deserved wine capital of China.
Yibin was called Rongzhou in ancient times. It was an important border town in Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou. It was the starting point of the Qin Wuchi Road and the Hannan Yi Road. It was also the starting point of the Tang and Song Dynasties that led from southwestern Sichuan to Tubo and then to Tianzhu. A transportation hub leading to the southwest minority areas. This place is the center of the famous wine belt in Southwest China. It has a long history of wine making and famous wines have been produced for more than thousands of years. Here, rain and heat occur in the same season, the climate is mild, and the air and soil are most suitable for the growth of microorganisms required for winemaking. There is a saying that "Sichuan wine is the best in the world, and the essence is in Yibin."

Pre-Qin Fruit Wine-Konjiang
As early as During the Pre-Qin Dynasty, the Bo people who lived in Bodao (Yibin) were famous for being good at growing rice and lychees and brewing konjac sauce. This kind of berry sauce is actually a method of making fruit wine by using natural fermentation of fruits. There is also a popular name in Yibin called "Wanlaolao", which blooms in summer and bears fruit in autumn. Farmers often tie the fruits into small bundles and sell them in the market. This kind of jam is very common in Yibin, on the mountain behind Cuiping Mountain. Yes, it tastes sweet and juicy. The Yibin people made this common food delicious.
With the opening of Nanyi Road in the Han Dynasty, a large number of Han people moved to Bodao, bringing with them advanced production tools. and technology. The agricultural technology of Bodao has been greatly developed. "Qimin Yaoshu" quotes "Guangzhi": "When Qianwei Bodao, Nanguang, and lychees are ripe, hundreds of birds will grow in the rice fields." "Reflects the situation of agricultural production at that time. Agriculture is the prerequisite for wine making, and the sweetness of wine is inseparable from the hard work of farming. A large number of Han Dynasty wine making, wine drinking vessels, wine selling pottery figurines and banquet portrait stone carvings were unearthed from Yibin etc., proving that in the Han Dynasty, wine making in Bodao had reached a certain scale. It can be said that the economic and cultural exchanges in Bodao promoted the development of wine culture in Yibin. Fenyang City is known as the "Qin-Jin Dry Wharf" and the city has convenient transportation. .
Fenjiu, a traditional Chinese liquor, is a typical representative of light-flavor liquor. It is also known as "Xinghua Village Liquor" because it is produced in Xinghua Village, Fenyang City, Shanxi Province. It has exquisite craftsmanship and a long history. It is famous for its smooth taste, sweet taste, lingering fragrance after drinking, and long aftertaste. It enjoys high popularity, reputation and loyalty among domestic and foreign consumers.
In history, Fenjiu has experienced three glorious times. Fenjiu has a long history of about 4,000 years. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties 1,500 years ago, Fenjiu was highly praised by Emperor Wucheng of the Northern Qi Dynasty as the royal wine. . Known as the earliest national wine and a national treasure, it is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient Han people.
Xinghua Village has inexhaustible high-quality spring water, which gives Fenjiu liquor endless vitality. There are beautiful folk legends about Shenquan and Gujing springs, and they are called "Shenquan". It is recorded in "Fenjiu Qu" that "the water from the new panning well beside Shenming Pavilion is heavy and slightly lighter than crab roe", and the annotation says: "The water from Shenming Pavilion well is heavy." "Excellent, it is the most important thing to make wine." Mr. Fu Shan, a patriotic poet, calligrapher and medical scientist in the late Ming Dynasty, once wrote the four characters "De Zao Hua Xiang" on the ancient well of Shenmingting, which shows that Xinghua Well Spring is uniquely endowed by nature and can make wine. The wine produced is as refreshing as the fragrance of flowers. To make famous wine, there must be unique skills. The "Book of Rites of Zhou" records the six methods of wine making, namely: "The rice must be in good condition, the medicine must be in season, the water must be clean, the water must be fragrant, and the pottery must be good." ", the experience of combining fire" is the essence of the rice wine brewing method. In 1932, Mr. Fang Xinfang, a nationally renowned expert on microorganisms and fermentation, visited the "Yiquanyong" restaurant in Xinghua Village and summarized the Fenjiu brewing process into "seven major "Secret", that is: "One must get its essence, water must get its sweetness, the song must get its time, the sorghum must get its truth, the pottery must get its cleanness, the vat must get its moisture, and the fire must get its slowness". "The craftsmanship has made outstanding contributions to the inheritance and promotion of my country's traditional famous wines.
In 1964, in order to further promote my country's traditional famous wine techniques, the Ministry of Light Industry took Fenjiu technology as a pilot project and organized a technical force headed by Mr. Qin Hanzhang, a nationally renowned fermentation expert, to systematically summarize and demonstrate the scientificity and correctness of Fenjiu production technology. , which laid the foundation for further scientific research on Fenjiu.
As early as two hundred years ago, Shanxi salt merchants went to the remote Guizhou Province to do business. Because transportation was inconvenient at that time, Guizhou and Shanxi were nine thousand miles apart. It was inconvenient for the salt merchants to carry Fenjiu, so they used local water and Corn and barley were used to make wine using Fenjiu brewing method. Unexpectedly, Guizhou's unique spring water produced a unique flavor of wine. From then on, Moutai became the private wine of Shanxi salt merchants. This is what a local poet said, "The family only stores wine to buy, and the ships carry a lot of salt." Because the brewing process of Moutai liquor originated from Fenjiu liquor, there is a saying that "Moutai's hometown is in Shanxi".

During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, Renhuai unswervingly proposed: fully relying on resources and location advantages, establishing and revitalizing the city with wine, achieving growth, carry, and breakthroughs, and promoting a sound, fast, better and more economic society. Develop quickly.
Renhuai is not only an economically strong county (city) in Guizhou, but also a unique wine capital in China. In 2009, the liquor output of the above-scale liquor enterprises in Renhuai City reached 111,000 tons, accounting for 1.6% and 78% of the national and provincial liquor output respectively, of which the output of Maotai-flavor liquor was 60,000 tons (the output of Maotai liquor was 23,000 tons).

Suqian is known as one of the youngest prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu Province. However, it is one of the core producing areas of liquor with a long history and strong strength in Jiangsu and even the country. In August 2012, Suqian, where Yanghe is located, was officially awarded the title of "Chinese Liquor Capital" by the China Light Industry Federation and the China Liquor Association.
Suqian’s reputation as the “wine capital” is hard-earned, but it is well-deserved. Experts participating in the review pointed out that there are many assessment indicators. The first is whether the place has a long history and whether the unique environment is suitable for wine making. Suqian has obvious advantages; the second is scale. “Yanghe is now very large. The third is the contribution of liquor companies to the local area. Last year, Yanghe’s tax revenue reached 4.423 billion. As of July this year, it has exceeded 4 billion, which is 1/5 of Suqian’s fiscal revenue. It is very important to the local government. The economic contribution is huge. From the perspective of winemaking history, Yanghe originated in the Sui and Tang Dynasties and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
In terms of natural environment, many experts believe that Suqian is one of the most suitable places for wine making in eastern China. Whether wine can be made depends on water quality, soil and climate - because wine looks more refreshing, in fact the scientific mechanism behind it is the growth and fermentation of microorganisms. The growth of this microbial population requires a certain humid environment, humidity and temperature. Suqian is located in the warm temperate zone and subtropical zone
