The life experience of Sterling Wine can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty 3500 years ago. Since Yidi brewed the first drop of wine in human history here, the 5,000-year brewing history of Zhangshu has never stopped.
After the Shang Dynasty destroyed Xia Hou, the "King of Wu" searched for the remains of his ancestors and got the Atlas of Yidi Brewing. According to the map, he took Gezaoshan Jiulong spring water and local high-quality rice. After 998 1 day, he brewed a barrel of sweet wine.
Song, a great scientist in the Ming Dynasty, took "four special burning earth" as the prototype, which was included in the world's first comprehensive work on agriculture and handicrafts, Tiangong.
During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a brewing workshop called Wancheng in Manzhou Street of Zhangshu. In the workshop, a young man named Lou Deqing, after mastering the traditional brewing technology of "Si Te Ben Shao", founded the "Lou Yuanlong" firm in partnership with "Chen Maoyuan" firm in Zhangshu Town with excellent technical ability.
In order to make the quality of homemade liquor better than that of other restaurants, they further improved the technology of koji-making, fermentation and distillation on the basis of inheriting the local traditional distilled liquor technology, and studied the koji-making technology. With sorghum and glutinous rice as raw materials, they made fixed fermentation, carefully brewed and extended the storage period.
Because of the old cellar age, long fermentation period of fermented grains and good quality of distiller's yeast, the brewed wine is clear and mellow, which is well received by consumers after sales, with rave reviews and rapid sales. 1930, its semicolon Tiancheng Hotel first used two special characters (meaning unique and excellent quality) as signs to show high quality.
On the eve of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Dapeng trademark was used to mark four special characters to show its superiority. With the popularity of "Aster" wine, restaurants in Ji 'an, Taihe, Yichun, Fuzhou and other places are scrambling to purchase. In 1930s, the annual output of Lou Yuan Long was as high as100000 Jin.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the quality of Site liquor reached a new level and became famous for a time. The warm praise of two generations of great men has made the scene people still remember the warmth.
At the Lushan meeting after the new China, as a traditional historical famous liquor in China and the most famous liquor in Jiangxi, Liquor was selected by the provincial government and sent to the meeting for the central leaders to taste. Premier Zhou Enlai, who is good at drinking, has tasted countless famous wines all over the country, but this time he gave a summative evaluation: "It is pure and fragrant, with endless aftertaste".
And another great man, the chief architect of China's reform and opening up, Deng Xiaoping's indissoluble bond with the construction site is even more unforgettable. Deng Xiaoping, who had tasted the wine at the Lushan meeting, visited the Brewery many times when he was in Jiangxi. Comrade Xiaoping left the praise of "excellent wine with unique taste" after tasting the wine of Chester.

Identification of on-site wine;
First look at the bottle type. Many famous brands of liquor have unique bottle types. For example, Maotai has been using white cylindrical glass bottles for many years, which are smooth and free of impurities; Luzhou Laojiao Tequ uses extraordinary splendour bottles, and the words "Patent Bottle for Winery of LU ZHOU LAO JIAO CO.,LTD Co., Ltd." are printed on the bottom of the bottles. Fake wine bottles vary in height and thickness, the outer packaging is outdated, the sealing is not strict or the teeth are uneven.
Second, look at the label printing of printed liquor, which is very particular; Excellent white paper, clear font specifications, bright and uniform colors, accurate pattern matching and no overlapping ink lines. If there are English or pinyin letters, the sizes and specifications are the same.
In addition, there are many brands of liquor that use laser anti-counterfeiting labels on packaging boxes or bottle caps, such as Maotai liquor, whose anti-counterfeiting patterns are "Tian Fei" and "Five-pointed Star", which will show different colors from different angles and can only be used once, and can not be recovered if it is slightly damaged.
Third, look at the bottle caps Recently, most of the bottle caps of China famous liquor use aluminum metal anti-theft caps, which are characterized by smooth cover body, uniform shape, convenient opening, neat and clear patterns and characters on the cover and tight bottle mouth.
If it is a counterfeit product, it will often drip out when it is turned upside down, and the cover is not easy to unscrew, and the pattern text is blurred.
Fourth, look at the paper cover packaging of real wine, except for exquisite printing, its edge seams are neat and tight, and there is no phenomenon of uneven tightness and gaps; Some bottle caps are also wrapped in plastic film, and the packaging is tight and not loose.
5. Look at the turbidity through the glass bottle. From the appearance, liquor should be absolutely clear and transparent without precipitation. The clearer and more transparent the better.
You can hold the bottle in your hand, turn it upside down slowly, and observe the bottom of the bottle to see if there is any sinking substance or cloud phenomenon. According to the convention, if hops are evenly distributed, the gap between the density of hops is obvious, hops slowly disappear, and the wine body is clear and transparent, it is a high-quality wine.
One way to smell the fragrance is to pour a little wine on your hand, rub it with your hand for a while to make the wine hot, and then smell its fragrance. Generally speaking, if it smells good, it is good wine; If the smell is sweet, it is medium wine;
If it smells bitter and smelly, it must be fake and shoddy wine. Another method is to add a drop of cooking oil to the wine and observe the movement of the oil in the wine. If the oil spreads evenly and sinks evenly in the wine, the quality of the wine is better; If the oil diffuses irregularly in the wine and the sinking speed changes obviously, it can be determined that there is something wrong with the quality of the wine.
