In a few days, we will usher in the traditional festival-New Year's Day. The arrival of New Year's Day also means the end of 2022. Good or bad, glory or loneliness will have a new beginning on New Year's Day.
Because Chinese people pay attention to etiquette during festivals, on this day, everyone will bring their own gifts to visit relatives and friends to maintain relationships and send blessings to each other. However, giving gifts is also very particular. Among the many gifts, the most popular ones are drinks.
Liquor can not only open people's hearts quickly, but also make the place lively quickly. This is also an important reason why we prefer to send wine. However, China has a long history of wine culture and there are countless types of wine. If we are not careful, we will be spoiled for choice. During the important New Year's Day gatherings, it is recommended that no matter whose home you visit as a guest, you should not bring the following three types of wine when giving gifts. Otherwise, it will not only offend people, hurt feelings, but also lose face.
The first type: bulk wine
Nowadays, many people have the habit of drinking bulk wine, especially friends of the older generation. Because bulk wine was the representative of pure grain wine in their time, and the quality was also very good, so during festivals, some people liked to bring some home-brewed bulk wine to visit friends and elders.
What you need to know is that today’s loose wine is no longer the same as before. Today’s loose wine is mostly blended with alcohol, essence and other additives. Drinking too much can easily make you feel sick. If you bring this kind of wine as a gift, it can easily come across as disrespectful.
The second type: aged wine
I believe that friends who love drinking have heard the saying "wine tastes like it is old". This is true for authentic old wines. The longer the storage time, the more mellow and rich the taste of the wine.
However, old wine has a certain age, and every bottle you drink will result in one less bottle. Although the old wines sold on the market today appear to be aged on the surface, you can spot the aging if you look closely at the date. Most of this kind of wine that is swindled under the banner of "old wine" is blended with low-quality wine, and it is inappropriate to use it as a gift.
The third type: gold foil wine
Gold foil wine is a wine that contains "gold foil". It is very pure and has a gorgeous appearance, giving people a sense of luxury. Therefore, it is often sold as "rich wine" by merchants. Although this kind of wine looks very high-end, the liquid inside is mostly blended with low-quality grains or food flavors . It is spicy in the mouth and easy to get on your head.
Furthermore, gold foil wine has been banned by the country a long time ago, and the existing ones on the market are all illegal. If you give gifts with wine that has no appearance, it will easily hurt each other's feelings.
If you encounter the above three kinds of wine, please do not choose them, otherwise you will really spend money and lose face, and you will be said to be stingy and disrespectful behind your back. However, because everyone’s financial strength and budget are different, the range of wine selection will also be different. But as long as it is pure grain wine, you can buy it with confidence regardless of the price. If you really don’t know how to choose, you can take a look at what the old connoisseurs often drink - full wine.
Manshangjiu is a 53% sauce-flavor liquor produced in Maotai Town, Guizhou Province. Therefore, the selection of raw materials, water use and production process of the wine are all implemented in accordance with the standards of Moutai , so this wine is also known as "Little Moutai" in Guizhou.
Let’s take a look at the raw materials first. Manshangjiu chooses the unique local red tassel glutinous sorghum raw material in Guizhou. This crop has high amylopectin , full grains, large skin and thick flesh. After being steamed and roasted at high temperature, its nutrients and grain aroma can be maximized.
In addition, with the blessing of the water source of Fine Wine River , the extracted wine exudes a rich aroma and sauce aroma. Moreover, after being brewed with Daqu Kunsha craftsmanship, when you open the bottle, the room will be full of aroma. When poured into the cup, the long slender wine line, dense hops, and slightly yellow and translucent liquid will come into view one by one. Drink it in a small sip, with a soft and mellow aroma, mellow and delicate.
After savoring it carefully, there are also light fruity aromas, burnt aromas and cellar aromas. The sense of layering is very clear, which makes people unforgettable for a long time. It goes into the throat smoothly and neatly, with a long aftertaste, without any hint of spiciness and drunkenness. The price of such high-quality Chunliang Maotai-flavor wine is less than 200 yuan. It is a good choice whether you drink it yourself or give it to others.
