Exquisite Silk Road, Gorgeous Gansu

Gansu is located in the northwest, which is an inland province in China. The Hexi Corridor in Gansu has been a traffic fortress since ancient times. Therefore, Gansu, as the only place where the Silk Road passes, has frequent exchanges between countries, bringing different humanistic customs to Gansu and forming a liquor culture different from other regions.

When it comes to Gansu, many people have the impression that it is poor and desolate. In fact, Gansu has superior geographical environment and high grain output, and it has the only city named after "Liquor". Thus, its profound historical and cultural heritage of liquor, and the liquor brewed here was once in short supply, and its reputation can be equal to that of today's "Mao Wujian".

Gansu people like drinking and regard drinking as a way of entertainment. They often end up drinking glasses when they are at leisure, with a plate of peanuts as a appetizer, and drink slowly by themselves without any chat. Drinking and eating vegetables seems to be enjoying a person's paradise.

If three or five friends get together to talk and laugh, then after drinking, they must have a wine table game, that is, punching. This is a major part of the local drinking custom, which is slightly similar to the wine table custom in Henan, probably because Gansu is not far from Henan.

Gansu people drink with enthusiasm, but with pleasure.

Gansu people have an indescribable affection for wine from beginning to end, and the fine wine in Gansu is not only Huangtai wine, but it can be said that there are fine wines everywhere in Gansu, but it is not well-known outside the province, even no one knows it, but it definitely has a certain dominance in the local area, and Gansu people also have endless words about them.

① Jinhui Liquor

Jinhui Liquor is produced in Huixian County, Longnan, because Longnan region is located in Bailong River basin, at the southern foot of Qinling Mountains, adjacent to Sichuan, and its climate is close to that of northern Sichuan, such as Mianzhu. The liquor produced belongs to Luzhou-flavor Daqu Liquor. According to local records, it was the famous "western wine town" in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The storage environment and brewing environment of Jinhui liquor are unique. Although it is Luzhou-flavor liquor, because of the different brewing environment and different storage methods, Jinhui liquor with five grains and Sichuan Wuliang Luzhou-flavor liquor have obvious differences in taste and are sweeter.

② Liangdu Laojiao

Liangdu Laojiao is also a representative liquor in Gansu. Its reputation was still very high earlier. At that time, the sales volume of this liquor was also one of the best in Gansu liquor market. Unfortunately, when this liquor developed to the later stage, it neglected marketing. When enterprises began to pay attention to marketing, its market share had been divided by other brands, which led to the fact that Liangdu Laojiao almost disappeared from Gansu liquor market.

people who have drunk this wine can be said to be grandfathers. Now, the quality is not bad, but it is a pity that it has fallen.

③ Longnan Spring

Among many liquor brands in Gansu, Longnan Spring was sought after by Gansu people in a short time after its listing, and it also accumulated a reputation. In addition, its liquor quality was very good, and it was once popular in Gansu.

It has the reputation of "a small south of the Yangtze River in Gansu". Just listening to the name, we can know that the brewing conditions of this liquor are superior, with rich products and beautiful scenery. This production condition is only Fujia Town, Huixian County. The brewing time of this town is very early, dating back to the Western Han Dynasty, and the rich wine culture makes this place famous throughout Gansu.

Longnan Spring can be said to be fully worthy of the title of "China Famous Liquor", because both the material selection and the brewing technology are excellent, and the sweet and dry taste makes people feel like spring breeze. No wonder many people say that Longnan Spring belongs to Gansu.

These three kinds of liquors are "popular groups" in Gansu. And only local people are drinking. In short, it is a great pity that famous wines are unknown for various reasons. But it is said that wine is like life, and the glorious road of these liquors is ups and downs like life, but life is always so helpless. There are more than these liquors with the same fate, and the following liquors are also in the same situation. It is really sad that good wines are not appreciated.

① Rice fragrance

Speaking of rice fragrance, we still think of rice more. In fact, rice fragrance wine is very popular in Hubei, and you can see it on Hubei people's wine tables in the streets.

The brewing water of Daohuaxiang is taken from the mineral water of "Longan", and the process is mixed steaming and burning. The traditional five-grain brewing uses red sorghum, rice, glutinous rice, corn and wheat as brewing raw materials.

The grain aroma and cellar aroma of the wine are quite sufficient, and it can be regarded as a popular liquor in Hubei.

② Han Dong Master Wine (Treasures 1)

It comes from Guizhou, a major wine-making province, and the brewers have a stubborn pursuit for the quality of the wine. Therefore, both the raw materials and the technology are hands-on, and every technology follows strict standards. After careful selection of raw materials, it is required that the wine is made from red cherry sorghum with high starch content and good preservation, so the quality of the wine is certain.

Smelling the aroma, the sauce is full of flavor. When the old wine is opened, it floats all over the house, with a mellow entrance and a long aftertaste.

There are more people who drink locally, but fewer people drink outside Guizhou.

③ Tongzhou Laojiao

Tongzhou Laojiao is produced in Beijing, and many "drinkers" are unfamiliar with this wine, but its sales volume is several times that of Maotai at its peak.

At that time, almost everyone in Beijing drank this wine, because it had a unique taste, a delicate and elegant entrance, a maotai flavor in the middle and a long aftertaste.

the quality is really good, but it is a pity that it has not been brilliant for a long time, and it is quite humbled to almost disappear in the liquor market because of poor management.
