Speaking of Beijing, as the capital, there are endless delicious and fun things. Speaking of good wines in Beijing, only , Erguotou, , has become popular all over the country. But Erguotou is suitable for drinking at home, so are there no other wines in Beijing that can be used to show off? Of course not. There are still many famous wines in Beijing, but few people have drunk it for one reason or another. The wine we are going to talk about today is known as the "Miao Maotai in Beijing". It has been brilliant and gradually declined. Now it has revived its strength and returns strongly. Can it achieve its former success?
Origin
1949, Changping Winery was established. Changping is the gathering place of various wineries. Changping Winery is the merger of two wineries. At that time, , Hongxing Erguotou was the mainstream wine in Beijing. In order to develop other wineries, Hongxing Winery gave all the gifts to other wineries, and Changping Winery was among them, and was supported by Hongxing Winery's technology.
After the support of Hongxing Factory, Niulanshan Erguotou was released. Changping Winery was renamed Beijing Huadu Brewing Food Co., Ltd. also produced the "Sun Brand" Erguotou. Since then, Hongxing , Niulanshan and Huadu Winery have been called the "Three Musketeers of the Capital".
The advent of Yanlingchun
By the 1950s and 1960s, the sudden rise of Moutai liquor caused a frenzy of sauce liquor . In order to learn Moutai's brewing technology, many wineries traveled thousands of miles to Moutai distillery to learn the art. Huadu Winery naturally won’t miss such a good opportunity.
After returning from his studies, Moutai took Huadu as the key training target. Its brewing master Ji Keliang worked tirelessly to personally guide Huadu winery's brewing technology, and Beijing's round trips cost more than 20 times.
After years of careful research and personal guidance from experts, this soy sauce-flavored wine called "Yanlingchun" has finally come out. As a representative wine of northern sauce-flavored pie wine, this wine has also set a precedent for northern sauce-flavored wine and maximized the gap in the northern market.
The peak and decline of Yanlingchun's development
As the direct sauce-flavored liquor of Moutai, this wine has high quality and tastes similar to Moutai. This allows it to quickly occupy the mid-to-high-end liquor market in Beijing, and has become affectionately "Miaotai in Beijing" by wine friends.
was in a period of rapid development from its publication to the 1980s, and it also broke out of Beijing, with a trend of being at the forefront of Chinese liquor.
When I thought it would become popular, the liquor industry ushered in a major reshuffle in the 1990s. Some brands seized the opportunity and were reborn, but Yanlingchun was eliminated in this reshuffle and gradually faded out of people's sight.
returns to
In 2017, Huadu and Zhongji Group jointly launched the "XX Memorial Wine". After tasting by Ji Keliang on this wine release site, the sauce aroma in the mouth and the aftertaste is outstanding and the aftertaste is long.
In 2021, in order to maximize the development of sauce-flavored wine, Huadu established a sauce-flavored wine production base in Xishui . We will wait and see whether the advantages of its current geographical location and its more than 3,000 tons of sauce wine that have been stored for more than 30 years can create the glory of sauce wine again.
In fact, in recent years, sauce-flavored wine has quietly brought about a trend. Taking advantage of this trend, all old-fashioned sauce-flavored wines have made a lot of effort, for fear that they will not be able to catch up with this trend if they are not careful. We naturally know the old-fashioned sauce wine, and among the sauce wine lovers who love it very much, there are two new style sauce wines.
1, Guokang 1935
Guokang Winery is also located in Maotai Town . The local red tassel sorghum is the basis of high-quality wine. After 165 processes, it takes 1 year to become a wine. After it becomes a wine, it can only leave the factory after being stored, blended, and passed the inspection.
From the taste of the wine, the sauce flavor is outstanding. You can still feel the faint aroma of the food after drinking it. The wine is not spicy, irritating, or spicy when entering the throat, and it is smooth and delicate. After drinking, the empty cup still smells like it, making people want to have another cup.
2, Langjiu Honghualang
Langjiu is the only brand with three flavors, and Honghualang is a key used by Langjiu to open the door of sauce wine, which is undoubtedly a success.
The overall taste of Honghualang wine is thicker but not as rich as the sauce aroma of Guokang wine. The sweetness of Lang wine is a little heavier, and it combines the fragrance of flowers and grain.
That’s all for today’s sharing. Have you ever drunk the “Beijing Xiao Moutai” wine?
