Sichuan has been known as the "Tianfu Country" with beautiful mountains and rivers since ancient times. Because it is located in a basin, the climate is mild all year round, warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very suitable for microbial growth.
It can be said that Sichuan is a natural fermentation pool as a whole. It not only sets the foundation for the huge Sichuan wine market, but also provides a natural assistant for the local excellent winemaking technology. It is such a natural winery with many famous wines in the country, including Wuliangye , Luzhou Laojiao , which occupies half of my country's liquor industry.
Many people believe that so many famous wine products come from Sichuan, so the local people’s tables must be filled with Jiannanchun , Wuliangye and Luzhou Laojiao Bar?
is not the case. Although there are many famous wines, the price of famous wines is also high and it will not be much cheaper in the local area. On the contrary, Sichuan people have a lot of room for drinking. If you like it, you will generally ignore these high-priced alcohol brands, but instead buy some affordable prices with relatively high-quality prices. Not only is the price appropriate, but the taste is not inferior to that of big brands. Below are three "nameless wines" that you often drink at Sichuan banquets. Let's take a look together.
Yuchan Daqu
This is a single-grain strong fragrance liquor produced in Luzhou, Sichuan. Locals say " Yuchanjiu can be comparable to Luzhou Laojiao" . In fact, Yuchanjili cooperated with Luzhou Laojiao as early as the last century, and at that time, it was the production base of Luzhou Laojiao, which provided raw wine for it.
The reason why Yuchanjijiu has such great charm attracted the famous Luzhou Laojiao, one is that it has Luzhou local cellars and has a strong raw wine production capacity ; the other is that nearly 400 of its thousand-mouthed cellars have a history of more than 100 years, providing guarantee for the quality of of the raw wine produced .
Although the brewing process and quality are guaranteed, the brand is not popular enough, and it has been underestimated because of the lack of popularity in the brand. Fortunately, it is very popular in the local area.
Yuchan Daqu is its hot-selling core product. Its taste is obviously different from the rich aroma of grain. It has a fresh fragrance in the mouth, which is softer and cleaner, and the cellar fragrance is more prominent. The disadvantage is that it is not thick enough and the aftertaste disappears quickly, but in general, it is definitely good quality and low-priced.
Fengyunjiangfu Fengzang
This is a sauce-flavored liquor produced in Maotai Town, Guizhou. The winery not only has the unique brewing environment of Maotai Town, , but also strictly adopts the 12987 Kunsha process. uses Guizhou local high-quality red tassel sorghum as the raw grain, and Didi has an intoxicating grain fragrance.
Its brewer Li Changshou is the only son of the former deputy director of Maotai factory Li Xingfa , and he was deeply rumored by his father. His father summarized the three typical types of " sauce wine " , which not only solved the problems of Moutai wine unstable quality and low production, but also a milestone breakthrough in the history of Chinese liquor. Therefore, Li Xingfa is known as the father of , the wine he brews is a symbol of quality.
Mr. Li Changshou learned to brew wine with his father since he was a child. He followed his "I would rather not sell wine for five years and leave a clay pot to fill it with the future" ; after 5 years of , he carefully blended it with 12-year-old wine brewed by Li Xingfa, perfectly restored the classic Maoxiang from the 1970s, which is also the reason why Sichuan people like this wine.
Open the bottle of this wine and you can smell the pure sauce aroma. The mouth is soft and mellow. The middle section of has a clear cellar fragrance and a complex flower and fruit aroma. After drinking, it doesn’t have or dry , it doesn’t have any headaches, it’s very comfortable, and the price is only about 100 yuan. Many drinkers move it home in boxes.
Xiaojiaolou
This is a rich-flavored liquor from Pingchang , Sichuan. It is made from sorghum , rice, etc. as raw materials, and then fermented in a pottery cave.
Xiaojiao Tower has a long history and its origin can be traced back to the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. At that time, it was also a fine wine that only nobles could enjoy. In the last century, the sales volume was among the top .Although it is , the well-known trademark of in China, its publicity efforts in all aspects still cannot keep up with modern technology, resulting in its "obscurity".
This wine is elegant and delicate, with a soft and sweet taste, and is mellow and comfortable in the mouth. has obvious cellar fragrance and aged fragrance . The wine is strong enough and has a long aftertaste after drinking. is a typical Sichuan-style strong aroma white wine .
Although it is not as famous as before, fortunately, Xiaojiaolou has always had a good reputation and is affordable, it has become one of the food and wines for many people, and even treats and entertains.
