Of course, I can understand what you want to ask. Is there any delicious sauce in Maotai Town? In addition to Kweichow Moutai, there are thousands of breweries, large and small, in Maotai town, and some still retain delicious sauce flavor.
The first is Guotai, which claims to be the first wine that dares to mark the true year. In recent years, a very good national wine has been produced. According to the national standard 20 15, there are still some in China.
Secondly, Huaizhuang, founded in 1983, is the first private winery in Maotai Town. I only drank Huaizhuang wine a few times in 2008, which was impressive and delicious.
Finally, there is Guizhou wine, which has only been drunk a few times and tastes good. For various reasons, I haven't bought it.
Of course, many wineries have sprung up in Maotai Town in recent years, but they don't know much about it. If I had a choice, I would choose to buy and taste the above three Maotai town sauces except Maotai.
Some people say that Maotai takes the town, so be careful when buying it.
There are too many liquors in Maotai Town. After reading so many answers, some are introducing Maotai's series of liquor, some are recommending Xijiu or Jinsha Huisha liquor or rare and expensive liquor, and some are directly promoting their own products.
I have drunk more than 100 kinds of wine, so I can sum up your experience. Many people pursue Daqu Khun Sa craft. In fact, some distilleries in Maotai are already producing Daqu Khun Sa craft wine. This is true, but it doesn't mean that they can do well.
After drinking so many town wines, I found that these wines have more or less bad smells, and few are tasteless, but they are more expensive. Maotai Town Liquor has no representative works, or is a very representative winery. Without monopoly, a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend. When the Woods are big, there are all kinds of birds, and the level of liquor in Maotai Town is uneven.
If you have to choose from the town wine, each winery has its own good products, but remember that the bigger the winery, the better the quality control, and you can follow the samples later.
According to my experience, if you choose a good town wine, assuming you get a table of ten products, basically the quality of the wine from the sixth or seventh paragraph is barely passable, pure grain brewing and pure grain blending. No.6 liquor or liquor under No.7 liquor is basically blended with crushed sand and Khun Sa or directly blended with alcoholic liquor.
I hope my answer can help you.
My hometown, Shandong, which is now Maotai Town, has been exposed to Maotai-flavor liquor for nearly five years. In my opinion, there is no difference between authentic and non-authentic Maotai-flavor wine. As long as it is brewed according to the traditional Daqu Maotai-flavor, it is authentic Maotai-flavor wine, but authenticity does not guarantee that there is no difference in wine quality.
When it comes to maotai-flavor liquor or maotai town, the first thing that comes to mind must be maotai liquor. Personally, Moutai is called the national wine, one is the state-owned factory, and the other is the strict control of liquor quality. Among the numerous wineries in Maotai Town that I know, only Maotai Winery can guarantee that the starting date of the wine sold is five years, while ordinary wineries can only guarantee three years, but don't they want to put it for two more years? No, it's because the scale can't be reached, and time is a very important factor.
Of course, there are many good Maotai-flavor wines, but it depends on a certain scale to ensure the quality and output of wine and produce finished wine that can meet the market demand.
If you want to drink a good maotai-flavor wine, don't focus on the brand and word of mouth, but on the wine itself.
The wine in a big factory is not necessarily good, and the wine in a small factory is not necessarily bad. Time is valuable, but it may not suit your taste; The value of just one year is small, but it is not necessarily difficult to import.
In fact, Maotai tastes different even in different batches of the same wine, but I think there are several principles if you choose quantitative wine:
1 qualified winery; 2. Daqu Khun Sa; 3, high cost performance; 4. Make your own wine and drink it for more than five years. From my taste, the price is between 200 and 500. I think it is cost-effective to make ration wine.
One hundred people have a hundred kinds of sauces, and their favorite tastes, regardless of brand and price, are ok as long as they meet the first two conditions I mentioned, and cheap ones are not necessarily bad.
Since it belongs to Maotai Town, it also includes Maotai Distillery. What is the best wine in Maotai Distillery? It must be flying. I don't think that's what my friend meant. I should ask the unknown Maotai Town wine. Which is better?
Three people can drink the same wine with three different flavors, that is to say, just because I like it doesn't mean you like it, so you should taste it yourself. You can try some well-known liquors, such as Common Prince, Treasure Prince, Laimao Inheritance and so on. Many drinkers have tasted it and the response is good.
If I tell you that the wine in Maotai Town is delicious, it would be irresponsible, and it is also suspected of advertising, so I suggest that if you don't know wine, try Maotai Distillery first. If you are an experienced drinker, you can try Sanjiu made in Khun Sa, but each Sanjiu tastes different. Some people like it, while others naturally don't.
Sanjiu is also the same raw material, the same environment, the same microbial environment, the same Chishui river water and the same brewing process as the brand wine, but Sanjiu has no trademark. Can you say such a poor wine? After all, we locals drink this kind of loose wine.
I'm Wang Xiao from Maotai, a first-line winemaker. Friends who like to drink Maotai-flavor liquor can pay attention to me and exchange and learn together. I'm happy to answer your question. I hope you can read them carefully.
First, China sauce
The official of Maotai Co., Ltd. pointed out that the Chinese sauce wine is made of local high-quality waxy sorghum, wheat and water, adhering to the core brewing technology of Guizhou Moutai, carefully brewing, without adding any aroma or aroma substances, and has the style of outstanding sauce flavor, elegance and delicacy, mellow and soft, long aftertaste and fragrance in an empty cup. Now many drinkers think that Chinese sauce is 50% of Maotai's skill, and its reputation in the society is still good. In the eyes of many drinkers, Han sauce wine has obvious grain flavor, outstanding sauce flavor, burnt taste and elegant tendency; Full-bodied, pure, slightly bitter at the entrance, but sweet and fast, slightly sour; The front middle section is relatively stable, and the back section is obviously mellow and sweet; The whole is full and mellow, with a long aftertaste. The empty cup is not close to Moutai, and the quality is comparable to that of the imperial concubine.
Second, drink.
Xijiu was founded in 1952, and 1998 was merged into Maotai Group, which is a holding subsidiary of Maotai Group. Using local high-quality waxy sorghum as raw material, wheat was made into high-temperature Daqu, saccharified by heap, fed twice, fermented eight times, distilled nine times, sealed and stored, and carefully blended. There are two kinds of high-end wines: cellar 1988 and cellar 1998. The cellar 1988 is made by blending the old wine produced before 1988 with the original wine stored for more than 8 years. Its taste is very close to that of Maotai, and even people who drink Maotai all the year round can easily confuse the two kinds of wine.
Third, Jinsha
Jinsha is produced in Zunyi, near Maotai Town. Generally speaking, Jinsha gives me a feeling that it is too fishy, but it also has a wine-friendly taste. If I have to recommend it to others, I think it's better to summarize it. Its taste: Maotai flavor is obvious, and its taste complexity far exceeds 1988. The first feeling at the entrance is the obvious bitterness of coke. Next, the sauce is rich, pure and sweet, but it is unpleasant during the period, and the more you drink it, the more obvious it is, and the aftertaste is bitter and slightly longer. It is recommended not to drink too much, otherwise it will affect the overall effect.
However, in fact, you can also find some high-quality Maotai-flavor wines with high cost performance in Maotai Town, because the prices of some well-known brands of Maotai-flavor wines contain a lot of brand values, and if you talk about the quality of wines alone, it will not reach its value at all. However, in some small towns, because there is not too much brand promotion cost, the price is generally the price of wine quality.
Hello, not all maotai-flavor liquor is good wine. Maotai-flavor liquor is also graded, including Khun Sa, Shatian, Fansha and Daoxiang liquor. Of course, different grades of wine have different prices.
1, Khun Sa wine, also known as "Hunzi wine".
Sand refers to sorghum, muddy refers to complete and muddy wine, and refers to wine brewed with complete sorghum. The sorghum of Khun Sa wine is relative, and the crushing rate of sorghum is about 20%.
Khun Sa liquor is produced in strict accordance with the traditional Moutai liquor "12987" process, and the production cycle is as long as one year. After two times of feeding, nine times of cooking, eight times of fermentation, seven times of wine extraction, it can only leave the factory after more than three years of cellar storage. Hunsha wine has outstanding sauce flavor, fullness, mellow taste and long aftertaste. The rate of wine production in Khun Sa is very low. Generally, 5 kg of grain 1 kg of wine has the best quality, so the price is higher. Maotai flying, five stars is Khun Sa craft.
If you use it as a ration wine, I suggest you try Khun Sa Sanjiu. The production technology of Moutai is adopted, which has high cost performance. If it tastes good, it will last forever.
2, broken sand wine
Crushed sand wine is made from crushed sorghum. The production cycle of broken sand wine is short, and there is no need for strict "sand returning" process. High yield, low cost and average quality. The entrance of broken sand wine is soft and not bitter, slightly sweet, with a large aroma but a short aroma. Moutai prince wine is a sand crushing process.
3. Fansha wine
Turning sand wine is made from the distiller's grains discarded after the ninth cooking of Khun Sa wine, and some new sorghum and new koji medicines are added. The production cycle of frosted wine is short, the wine yield is high and the quality is poor. Vasa cola has obvious bitter taste, and the time of leaving fragrance in an empty cup is short. Maotai welcome wine is a process of turning sand.
4, mellow wine
Fen-flavor liquor, also known as "fragrant liquor" and "fragrant liquor", is distilled from the distiller's grains discarded after the ninth cooking of Khun Sa liquor, and edible alcohol is added. Daoxiang wine has poor quality and low cost. Strictly speaking, it is no longer maotai-flavor liquor. Buying and drinking is not recommended!
This kind of question is purely for advertising!
For people who often drink, you can tell the taste of wine, but for people who don't drink, you just hold the best wine to the sky, and drinking it in your mouth is just spicy and choking. Wrap the wine and blow it empty. Recommend it to those who are drunk and in a daze. They will all accept deception.
There are many wineries in Maotai Town that produce Maotai-flavor liquor. Personally, I think the scale of a winery does not mean that its liquor quality must be good. We still have to believe that you got what you paid for. In fact, large wineries have a larger backlog of funds and large expenses, so the better the wine, the more expensive it may be, and the advertising expenses also account for a large part. For example, two of them are very popular, and Princess Jiao Jiao is a little uncomfortable.
In fact, if the base wine of the small winery in Maotai Town is excellent, many wines will be better after blending, but these things are more for people who know the goods. The picture above shows eating in a restaurant owned by a winery at the beginning of the new year. These two bottles were left over from receiving friends before, and they just left. We just arrived, and there are two bottles of red wine and Sprite beside us! I tasted it carefully. This wine should be for people who know wine. Strong sauce flavor, strong sauce explosion, restrained aroma and long aftertaste! Most people who can drink this kind of taste are maotai-flavor old drunkards. These are two ordinary bottles of wine, but the wine is really good.
This is Khun Sa, a bartender's own 10-year-old Xiaohong. We made a bottle of soft and hard foam for ourselves to drink, but we kept it for sale. The standard Maoxiang style, all kinds of aromas are very good, mellow and delicate, with a long aftertaste, which deserves to be aged in 10 year.
These wines are actually one or two of the ordinary maotai-flavor wines in maotai town. Of course, although the packaging is simple, the price of these wines will not be too low. 200 yuan, I don't think I will sell it. The old maoxiang wine in the back may not be sold, but I use it myself.
For many good wines in Maotai Town, you still have to meet reliable channels and suitable people, and you have to understand that it really takes a long time to get used to maotai-flavor wines, otherwise it is useless to bring you a glass of good wine!
