"Wine" has been the "seasoning" of our daily life since ancient times. It not only has taste enjoyment, but also can relax from the bottom of your heart.
However, there are many types of liquor markets nowadays. When we stand in front of the dazzling shelves and look at the various wines, do you know how to choose?
Is there any difference between products of the same brand, and how should we distinguish between blended wine and pure grain wine? Let’s learn about it today!
1. The difference between blended wine and pure grain wine
Due to the slow development of the market economy in the last century, in order to meet the public's needs, the new craft liquor was found, which was the predecessor of the later blended wine. At that time, it was not only a niche brand, but also some products under the top domestic brands of also used this craft .
So, the products under the same brand cannot be guaranteed to be pure grain wine, and there are three differences between blended wine and pure grain wine:
① Process:
Because it is pure grain + water fermentation , and it is brewed through a series of steps. The aromatic and flavoured substances in the wine are all fermentation products. The taste of the wine depends on the koji, cellaring and brewing technology, and no other additives are needed in the process, so pure grain wine is also called solid liquor .
and blended wine is mostly made of edible alcohol , flavor, saccharin, and water . The flavor of wine depends on the amount of chemical products. Although a small number of products have 0% pure grain wine , it is still called liquid liquor and solid liquid liquor respectively.
② Taste:
Because edible flavor itself improves the shortcomings of the wine body during the manufacturing process, the taste of general blended wine will be better than that of pure grain wine without any additives. Maybe most people can't taste it, but friends who often drink pure grain wine can tell it out as soon as they taste it.
③After drinking:
Because the quality of eating alcohol itself is not high, even if the taste defects are covered by additives, the dry mouth, upper head, nausea, heartburn will still appear after drinking.
. Pure grain wine has avoided the production of most harmful substances during the brewing process. Therefore, after drinking , it will not cause headaches, discomforts, etc., and it will sober up quickly.
2. When choosing pure grain wine, you must pay attention to the 3 signals on the bottle.
mark. ❶ There are no edible alcohol, edible spices, liquid liquor and other words in the ingredients. Only grain + water
Some merchants will play "word games" and mark the words "pure grain", "crafted", "high-quality" and other words on the bottle to confuse the public.
But fortunately, the country stipulates that the ingredients used must be filled in truthfully in the ingredient list, so we only need to observe whether there are words such as "edible alcohol, edible spices, liquid liquor ". If so, it must be blended wine!
mark ❷The 5 numbers on the bottle execution standard number ≠20821 (or 20822)
Friends who often drink wine know that there will be a set of numbers called "Execution Standard Number" on the bottle, which is equivalent to the "ID number" of the wines.
Different aroma types of liquor will have their corresponding execution number , but blended wine does not belong to white wine, nor does it have corresponding fragrance, so the standard number is also a fixed number 20821 or 20822. That is to say, as long as these two sets of numbers are seen on the bottle, it is 00% alcohol blended wine .
mark❸The quality level of the bottle is marked as high-grade or first-grade
. Although they are all pure grain wines, there are absolute differences in the taste, aroma and quality of . Therefore, when choosing wine, you can distinguish them according to the quality level, because this is an evaluation obtained by the relevant departments after testing the above three aspects.
So when choosing wine in , try to choose the best . The first level is slightly worse, and the second level is relatively at the bottom. However, for liquors without quality levels, it is recommended to choose carefully, because it is highly likely that alcohol blended wine.
Of course, the brand cannot represent that the wine must be of good quality. The signals above can only be distinguished as pure grain wine. If you want to drink "wine" with excellent quality and good taste, it depends on the public's reputation. The following wine is good, with high cost performance and 100% pure grain, and it is also the "food treasure" of local old wine friends!
