Our country is the hometown of wine. Since ancient times, there are many famous wines that have been praised by countless literati for thousands of years. After entering modern times, not only these old famous wines continue to be glorious, but also a wealth of new brands have emerged, injecting vitality into the liquor industry.
Among them, Hubei Jinjiu and Guizhou Dongjiu are loved by many male friends. Because some traditional Chinese herbal ingredients are added to these two wines when they are made, the public often calls them "men's gas stations".
Whenever we talk about the two, there is always an endless debate among drinking friends about who is better. But in this regard, experts directly said: there is no comparison. The reason why
said this is actually because Jinjiu and Dongjiu are completely different from brewing methods, to product positioning, to taste and flavor. The two are not in the same track, so comparison is naturally meaningless.
First of all, brewing different
Jinjiu belongs to the category of lujiu. It uses Xiaoqu liquor as the carrier and incorporates active ingredients from Huaiyam , wolfberry, cinnamon , Angelica and other materials, which changes the taste and style of the drink, giving it a unique effect.
Dongjiu is a traditional distilled liquor in my country. Its brewing process and raw material formula are very precious and have been specially listed as "state secrets".
Although it is quite special, this wine is still made from high-quality sorghum. However, Baicao is introduced when making the koji, fermented with large and small koji, and steamed with double fermented grains.
Secondly, the positioning is different
Dongjiu does not advertise its efficacy, but is famous for its medicinal aroma liquor, which is among the eight authentic famous wines in my country. It has been ranked as "China's Famous Liquor" in many competitions. Although the price is not too high, its positioning is clear in the "mid-to-high-end market" of liquor.
The key point of Jinjiu is that it extracts material components from a variety of nutritious ingredients. Therefore, since its creation, its promotion has been focused on health care, and its price is relatively low. It has always been in the market of "low-end wine" and "healthy wine".
Finally, the taste is different.
Jinjiu has been improved many times. Now its finished product has an amber color in appearance and is relatively bright. Although the base is white wine, its alcohol content is not high. It tastes light and has a distinct medicinal smell and syrup-like sweetness in the mouth.
As the representative of my country's Dong-flavor liquor, Dongjiu is colorless and transparent. It has the strong aroma of Daqujiu and the softness of Xiaoqujiu. In addition, it also has a hint of medicinal aroma and sourness, and has a unique taste.
From the above, it can be seen that although Jinjiu and Dongjiu are both classified as "medicated wine" by people, they are not the same in nature. There is no need to compare which one is stronger and which one is weaker.
Of course, many drinkers in life are not very enthusiastic about Dongjiu and Jinjiu, because their medicinal taste is still a bit unacceptable.
Looking at the liquor market, liquors with strong aroma, sauce aroma, and light aroma are still more popular. For example, the Manshang wine below is recommended by many wine lovers. As a leader among Kunsha sauce wines, it has outstanding performance in terms of drinking experience.
ManshangjiuAlthough it is not well-known nationwide, it is a real Maotai-flavor liquor produced in Kweichow Moutai Town. All the conditions here are particularly suitable for brewing sauce wine, and it meets the standards of Feitian Moutai, so the final wine is of superior quality and has a full aroma of grass at the entrance. It is amazing.
Because the winery is located in the core area of Maotai Town, it has a long history and deep strength. The raw materials of Manshang Liquor are local red tassel sorghum, the water source is taken from Chishui River, and the ancient "12987" Kunsha craftsmanship has been inherited. Over the course of a year, after multiple rounds of feeding and fermentation, a batch of new wine is brewed.
The resulting wine will continue to be stored in pottery jarsfor more than 5 years to allow it to mature and evaporate irritating substances before it can be put on the market.
Because of this, after opening the bottle, the aroma is overflowing and can fill the whole room; when poured into the cup, the wine liquid is crystal clear. When drinking, it not only has a rich sauce aroma, but also has an elegant grain aroma and a comfortable aging aroma. Finally, a light floral and fruity aroma remains in the mouth.
The most important thing is that this wine is silky and smooth in the mouth, without strong irritation or spiciness. It tastes sweet and clean, very comfortable, and it is priced at around 100 yuan, which is very affordable for the public.
