I hope my answer is helpful to you!

In Xinjiang, since 1970, there are white wines such as Lin Gongqu Daqu, Yili series, Guwan series, Xin'an series of Shihezi, Gucheng wine system, Aksu Eagle, Awati national handmade Muselis, Ushi County Tomur Peak, Baycheng Harashu, Kashgar Mageti Desert Square wine, Dawazi fruit wines, Makan wine series, Hotan pomegranate wine, Dajun wine, etc. There are also Zibei tonic wine, Bazhou wine and other famous wines. There are also Zibei tonic wine, Batanwood wine series, Bachu County, Honghai wine, Korla Donggui wine, beer: red Wusu, Tomur Peak, Xinjiang beer, white wine class I remembered these, there is not remembered, please forgive me, sorry ......

Xinjiang's best wine is the Yilit, is currently the small old cellar best, in the small old cellar. The best thing about the old cellar is that before the small cellar came out it was the Yili Tequ, and before the Tequ it was the Yili Daqu, which is the kind of wine that is pictured.

White wine: Yilit,

Red wine: Museles,

Beer: Daiwusu.

As a person born in the north of Xinjiang and living in the south of Xinjiang for more than ten years, I recommend Xinjiang specialty wines, white wine - Yilit, red wine - Mousselles, beer - -The big wusu. Personally, I think that these three kinds of wine is the most Xinjiang characteristics. First of all, the Yilit, that is the winter of 1955, stationed in Shorbulak reclamation fighters, the use of rudimentary equipment brewed the first pot of wine on the prairie. This wine, born on the banks of the Gongnais River, was later known as Xinjiang Maotai. Most of the people in the country should have heard of the Yilit advertisement years ago, which featured a handsome Uyghur man who looked like a cowboy from the West, riding his horse across a vast grassland, while a magnetic male voice rang out: "Yilit is a hero". The picture and the copy can be said to be very heartfelt.

Elite belongs to the strong flavor white wine, its taste is pure, soothing and refreshing, natural mellow and thick, sweet and smooth coordination, rich aroma, long aftertaste. It has won the gold or silver medal at the 4th International Liquor Expo in Tokyo. Generally speaking, Xinjiang people like to drink Little Old Cellar among Yilit the most, why is that? Lightly sniffing Little Old Cellar, there is sweetness in the scent of ripe duck pear, and there is a vague aroma of grain fermentation, which is refreshing to the mind. Take a sip, the wine touches the tip of the tongue, spreads from the tip of the tongue to the mouth, and is slowly swallowed. The first feeling is "sweetness", watermelon-like sweetness, like the first taste of melon in summer; the second is "purity", spring-like purity, like the feeling of drinking water into the throat in summer; and the second is "fragrance". The second is "clean", spring-like cleanliness, like the feeling of drinking water in the summer into the throat; the second is "fragrant", the kind of fragrance from the grain, like with the fragrance of the field.

In short, it is smelling fragrant, tasting sweet, drinking soft, lingering aftertaste and not on the head, there will not be the first day of drinking, the next day headache feeling. Xinjiang people like to call themselves son of a doll, the so-called son of a doll, a large part of which is reflected in the big bowl of wine, a large piece of meat on the bravado. Whether it is hot summer, or cold days, there is nothing is three or five friends and family, while sipping our Xinjiang Yilit, while jerking the barbecue meat can not be resolved. Xinjiang people's spontaneity and uninhibited, is almost no mainland people long-winded half-day persuasion order, as long as you can sit together, regardless of his or her men and women can not drink a mouthful of non-stick, just buried in the meat, can drink the end of the glass dry on the end of the simple and direct, no politeness, and no sets of very deep curves.

The red wine I highly recommend produced in Xinjiang South Xinjiang Aksu region Awati County, Mu Sailes, it is the oldest wine in the Western region. The ancient poem, "The grapes and wine in the night light cup, want to drink the sepia immediately urged." The "wine of grapes" in this poem refers to it, and the "agar of the Western Regions" that the Gaochang Dynasty paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty was also Museles. The Uyghur people living in the southern border use grapes as the basic raw material for natural fermentation, and add pigeon's blood, cloves, antler velvet, Cistanches, saffron, and many other precious Chinese herbs into the ingredients to brew it purely by hand. It has a very high medicinal value and is also regarded as a kind of medicinal wine for health care, which is called "the gas station for men and the beauty salon for women". Therefore, the Han Chinese people according to the harmonic image called it "nothing to do". I personally like this harmonic call, our female colleagues get together, most of them are a few bottles of nothing to do.

Interestingly, when Mousselles is fermenting in the vat, some will make a "gurgling" sound like boiling water, and some will make a "thumping" sound. A wise winemaker can tell the color and quality of Museles by listening to the sound. Haha! Isn't this fun? For those who have never tasted it, at first they think of it as a natural juice similar to wine. This is the case for me, because it is first sweet with grape flavor, and then mildly bitter. From sweet and bitter, tongue taste buds but not the slightest discomfort, neither the pleasure of tasting the agar jelly, nor the stimulation of penetrating spirits, but do not be confused, as I said earlier, Mousselles is actually a kind of medicinal wine, so it is a certain power, strong aftertaste, unknowingly let you drift, Chuang Zhou dream butterfly. Remember, nothing to come to the matter although good, only a small drink, should not be greedy.

Now, the grass is long, the weather is gradually warming up, and it's time to open up and drink the life-threatening Da Wusu. In Xinjiang, south and north of the border, the streets and alleys, cities and villages, the most common and most popular wine is the life of the big Wusu. If Elite is the high-end atmosphere, Mousselles is the elegant niche, then the big Wusu is definitely the most popular Xinjiang wine, but it is beer. About the origin of the life-threatening Big Wusu, there are no more than the following reasons. Wu Beer from Xinjiang, a bottle of this stuff is more than the average beer, so it's very weighty to hold in your hand. The top of the package says Wusu Beer, and the letters wusu.

Although Big Wusu has an alcohol content of only 4 degrees, which is one degree higher than ordinary beer, it has a particularly strong aftertaste. And it's got a great taste, a particularly mellow wine flavor, and drinkers especially enjoy drinking Big Wusu. The first time to drink Da Wu Su people are basically to get drunk, because it is good, so at first thought it was beer, did not take it seriously, drink more vigorously. Usually can drink six or seven bottles, can only drink a two or three bottles of DawuSu, the amount of alcohol can not basically do not need to open the second bottle has been drunk.

I believe that most of the people who have drunk the Ursus beer is directly to the bottle blow, because it is very smooth taste, drink very comfortable, but also more fragrant than ordinary beer. Generally drink beer is by the number of bottles, however, ordinary bottled beer is 500ml a bottle, the ouzo beer is 620ml. people who drink a little more, will choose to drink red ouzo, a little less people, drink green ouzo. People in Xinjiang often say that the life-threatening Da Usu is also known as Red Usu.

After work about two or three friends drinking and chatting, the street fly museum, night market, roadside stalls, but also high-end hotels, bars, KTV. a good night to talk about happy happy happy cozy, relaxed and easy, the life of the fortunate, nothing more than this. The wine in Xinjiang is as bold and simple as the people here, the atmosphere is dry, and at the same time, rich and warm, and you will be intoxicated in a minute. Whether you are a wild man with a taste for wine, or a woman with a taste for wine, in Xinjiang, there is always a suitable wine for you, and you will fall in love with it, and even can't stop drinking it. Drinking is wine, tasting is life, more often than not, maybe drink what is not important, important is with whom to drink, wine in the jianghu, more life flavors.

I'm from Xinjiang, I'm in the beautiful south of Xinjiang, looking forward to friends from all over the country to my beautiful Xinjiang as a guest, to enjoy the Western style, you can gallop in the prairie, you can also enjoy the desert, the Yangtze River Sunset round the magnificent scenery, taste Xinjiang food, drink Xinjiang wine.

Xinjiang has a lot of brands of wine, famous for a little is the Ili series of wine, after all, in the CCTV has been advertised, sponsored the team, in Xinjiang is considered to be one of the alcohol in the big enterprises. I'm not sure if you're going to be able to get it right, but I'm sure you'll be able to!
