Sometimes, a few friends who rarely meet get together to have a drink and talk about old times. Wine has penetrated into the five thousand years of Chinese civilization history, and its traces can be seen in food and cooking, health care, and literary creation. There are many types of wine, which can be divided according to raw materials, flavor, or alcohol content.

As a unique distilled liquor culture in our country, liquor is undoubtedly an important representative of our country. From high to low, the top three are Moutai, Wuliangye and Guojiao 1573. Foodies often say “you get what you pay for”, but those who know how to drink know that this consumption concept may not necessarily apply to liquor.

For rice wine, wine and liquor, an important factor is the vintage. The older the wine, the higher the price. If we put this aside, for a bottle of liquor of the same vintage, its brand awareness and packaging have a great impact on the price of the product itself.

As a result, the following five types of wine have not been well-known due to geographical restrictions, and their factory packaging has always been mediocre, and their prices have always been friendly to the people. But also because the price is too cheap, it is often regarded by many people as inferior wine or blended wine. However, only those "alcoholics" who are truly "alcoholic" will buy and drink it.

1. Xinghua Village Fenjiu

Fenjiu comes from Xinghua Village, Fenyang, Shanxi. As a traditional Chinese famous wine, it is a typical representative of my country's light-flavor liquor. Fenjiu has a long history of more than 400 years and has exquisite traditional production techniques. It is famous for its soft taste, sweet finish, lingering fragrance after drinking, and long aftertaste. Although it is a conscientious pure grain wine, it has always been packaged in a single way. The most common white bottle of Fenjiu only has a wine label on the filled glass bottle, which concisely summarizes the product information, and there is often a lot of information. People ignore this and are always attracted by high-end brand packaging. These Fenjiu wines are so cheap that even people with average family conditions can afford to drink them. However, its degree is relatively high, so don’t let it get in the way.

2. Zhuyeqing

Zhuyeqing, also produced in Xinghua Village, is an ancient traditional health-care wine in my country. It uses high-quality Fenjiu as the base wine and is mixed with more than ten kinds of precious medicinal materials. Processed, it not only retains the color of the bamboo leaves, but is golden and transparent with a hint of green. After being infiltrated with medicinal materials, it forms a unique fragrance. The aroma is mellow, the taste is sweet and bitter, but the aftertaste is endless. However, the packaging of Zhuyeqing is very rustic and the price is not expensive. People who don't know it always think it is inferior wine, and even if they see it, they pretend they haven't seen it.

3. Gujing Gongjiu

Gujing Gongjiu is a famous strong-flavor liquor in Bozhou. As one of the eight famous liquors, it is also known as the "peony in wine". The color is as clear as crystal, the aroma is as mellow as an orchid, the taste is sweet and mellow, and the unique flavor has a long-lasting aftertaste, which has fascinated a large number of people who love drinking. Using high-quality sorghum and undergoing saccharification and fermentation of Daqu, the liquor produced has a fragrant aroma and generally contains more esters than other Daqu liquors. However, it only uses the most common glass bottles for filling. This kind of wine is widely loved locally, but due to its simple packaging, it is not favored by outsiders.

4. Zhijiang Daqu

Zhijiang Daqu is produced by the largest liquor company in Hubei Province. It has a brewing history of 200 years since its establishment in 1817. It has a mellow taste and is not strong or irritating to the throat. People who know how to drink praise it. However, the most basic Zhijiang Daqu is only packaged in the simplest glass bottle. Many people think it is low-grade when giving it as a gift. Of course, if you just have a few sips at your daily dinner table, it is definitely a cheap and high-quality wine.

5. Hengshui Laobaigan

As a novice who doesn’t know how to drink, in addition to Maotai and Wuliangye, I have also heard a little about Laobaigan. The brewing and production of Hengshui Laobaigan has been basically uninterrupted since 1900. As one of Hebei's famous local liquors, it ranks first among the province's light-flavor liquors. According to legend, Hengshui wine has the reputation of "three drunk families across the wall, and the fragrance is ten miles away". It can be said that it is the most popular drink among drunkards. Despite its cheap price and simple packaging, only people who know wine can appreciate its taste. Moreover, this down-to-earth bottle of Laobaigan will not give you a headache after drinking it, and it will not give you a headache after drinking too much. It is an out-and-out high-quality pure grain. liquor.

If you love drinking liquor, have you really drank these cheap liquors?
