Every qualified Beijinger has a high level of Erguotou!
Neighbors or neighbors.
As the representative of Beijing wine, Erguotou has long been deeply imprinted with the imprint of old Beijing. From the royal family and nobles to the peddlers and lackeys, Beijingers who grew up under the roots of the imperial city basically drink it on a daily basis. It's all about it.
In recent years, the variety of Erguotou on the market has become more and more abundant. There are probably more than a dozen brands such as Hongxing, Niulanshan, Jingdu, and Jingfeng. But if you want to ask people what they like best, it still has to be It is a red star with its roots growing red.
Everyone knows that the blue bottle and the green bottle are the most popular items of Red Star, but if you want to ask them which one tastes better, I believe most people will not be able to answer.
For this reason, I specifically asked a drinking friend who is over 60 years old. After listening to his words, I learned that there is such a big difference between the blue bottle and the green bottle of Red Star. Below, we will Let’s chat together!
The raw materials for making wine are different
In terms of raw materials, there is not much difference between blue bottles and green bottles.
The raw materials of the blue bottle are sorghum, barley, and peas, while the green bottle has an extra corn.
We all know that corn can increase the sweetness of liquor, but wine brewed from corn also has a characteristic, that is, it tastes strong, rough, and spicy in the mouth, which most people cannot accept.
They taste different in style
Blue Bottle and Green Bottle are both light-flavor liquors. However, according to feedback from drinkers, the taste styles of the two are different.
Blue Bottle tastes softer, goes down the throat more smoothly, and does not have the "throat-locking feeling" of traditional Erguotou.
The green bottle highlights the pure Erguotou flavor. The wine is bursting and plump. It tastes hot and makes your throat feel like it is on fire.
Targeted at different groups
The green bottle appeared earlier and has a stronger taste. It is aimed at middle-aged and elderly people.
The blue bottle is launched by Red Star to cater to young people. Compared with the green bottle, it has a softer taste and less irritation when drinking, so it is more popular among young people.
The above three points are the main differences between the blue bottle and the green bottle. However, since they are under the same roof, there will be more or less similarities.
They are all pure grain wines
At present, my country's liquor can be roughly divided into two categories, one is pure grain wine, and the other is alcoholic wine.
Although the raw materials and taste of Blue Bottle and Green Bottle are different, they are both pure grain wines that insist on pure grain fermentation and do not contain any additives. They taste better than some beautifully packaged "alcoholic wines". Know where to go.
It has to be said that in this aspect, Red Star has indeed done a more kind thing than Niulanshan.
The quality is excellent
To measure the quality of a liquor, you must first see whether it is pure grain, and secondly, look at the quality grade of the liquor.
Liquor quality grades are mainly divided into 4 special grades, namely special grade, superior grade, first grade and second grade. There is no doubt that the special grade is the best and the second grade is the worst.
Blue Bottle Erguotou and Green Bottle Erguotou, one is a premium pure grain wine and the other is a first-grade pure grain wine. How many other varieties can you find at this price? Therefore, it is not without reason that Red Star can become a popular "ration wine" among the public.
Hongxing Erguotou has a very high starting point. As the promoter of the "Erguotou" craft and the exclusive registered user of the trademark, Hongxing is a well-deserved master of Erguotou. Unfortunately, when the new era comes, Hongxing does not cater to the market and make changes to its products. Changes and no marketing publicity resulted in it being surpassed by Niulanshan, which was heavily advertising, which was a pity.
However, in addition to Red Star Erguotou, there are also many liquors on the market that are in the same situation as Red Star Erguotou. For example, the following two are good pure grain wines. Unfortunately, due to their reputation, they are not available outside the province. People know you.
Yuande Imitation Taiwanese Wine
A well-known local sauce wine in Guizhou.
Its origins are not small. It is produced by Ronghe Shaofang, one of the three major Shaofangs. It tastes similar to Feimao.
Each wine takes 1 year and is cellared for 5 years. The aroma fills the room in just 2 seconds after being opened.
The finished wine is mature and translucent. When you take a sip, the aroma is fragrant and the wine is mellow. When you taste it carefully, it is slightly sour. The sensation of salivation is obvious. It is not spicy or overpowering when you swallow it, and you feel warm in your stomach. It's so refreshing that I really want to drink 3 glasses in a row.
However, because the wine company focused solely on making wine and neglected publicity, few people from other provinces knew about it.
Fenjiu Huang Gaibo Fen
There are probably not many people who don’t recognize the famous “Fen Boss”, right?
Huanggai Bo Fen is a people-friendly "ration wine" under the name of Fenjiu, and is popular all over the country.
It selects high-quality red sorghum, barley, and peas as raw materials, and is brewed using ancient pure grain methods that have been passed down to this day. The aroma is soft and pure, but not bland, and it tastes slightly sweet.
It also has the nickname "Deadly 53 Degrees", which can make people drink too much without even realizing it. Drinking friends should be careful.
Fenjiu was very popular in the past few years, but then it made several strategic mistakes and was gradually surpassed by other liquor brands. Now it can only be ranked in the second or third tier.
Authentic Erguotou, authentic Beijing flavor! As another business card of Beijing, Erguotou is well-known in China and enjoys a great reputation. It is also the "ration wine" of countless drinking friends. In this case, friends who have drank it might as well tell me, which one do you like better?
