Introduction to Xinghua Village Liquor

Xinghua Village Fenjiu, also known as "Old White Fenjiu", is named after its production in Xinghua Village, Fenyang City, Shanxi Province. Xinghua Village is a famous wine capital in China, located on the north side of Taifen Highway, 15 kilometers north of Fenyang City, and 90 kilometers away from the provincial capital Taiyuan City. Xinghua Village liquor in Shanxi Province is renowned for its clear and clean taste, pure fragrance, mellow sweetness, long-lasting color, aroma, and fragrance. With unique fragrance style, it has become a typical representative of fragrance Baijiu. Since 1953, it has been successively rated as one of the "Eight Famous Liquors" and "- Famous Liquors" in China

It remains to be further verified when the name Fenjiu originated, but as early as over 140 years ago, the name "Fenqing" already existed in this area. Of course, more than 1400 years ago, there was no distilled liquor in China. The "Fenqing" and "Ganniang" recorded in historical data are all yellow liquor. China's Baijiu, including famous Baijiu such as Fenjiu, evolved and developed from yellow liquor. In the Book of Northern Qi, it is recorded that Emperor Wu Cheng of Northern Qi, Gao Zhan, wrote a document from Jinyang to Prince Xiaoyu of Kangshu, Henan: "I drink two cups of Fenqing. I advise you to drink two cups in Ye

Fenjiu is a typical representative of Chinese light flavor Baijiu, with exquisite technology and a long history. It is famous for its soft taste, sweet taste, lingering aftertaste and long aftertaste. It enjoys high popularity, reputation and loyalty among consumers at home and abroad. In history, Fenjiu has experienced three glorious periods. Fenjiu has a long history of about 4000 years. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties period 1500 years ago, Fenjiu was highly praised by Emperor Wu Cheng of Northern Qi as the imperial wine and was recorded in the Twenty Four Histories, making Fenjiu famous overnight; Du Mu, a famous poet of the late Tang Dynasty, recited a poem called "Qingming" that is a masterpiece of all time: "May I ask where the tavern is? The shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village from afar." This is the second time Fenjiu has become famous; In 1915, Fenjiu won the first-class gold medal at the Panama International Exposition, bringing glory to the country and becoming a leader in China's brewing industry

The brewing of Fenjiu is made from the "One Grasp Sorghum" from the Jinzhong Plain, using barley and beans as saccharification and fermentation agents, and adopting a unique brewing process of "steaming twice". The wine brewed has a clear and transparent liquid, a fragrant and rich aroma, and a smooth, sweet, mellow, and refreshing taste when tasted. The insight of a brewer plays a crucial role in the brewing process, as skills such as koji making, fermentation, distillation, etc. are highly experiential

In the "Fenjiu Qu", it is recorded that "by the Shenming Pavilion, there is a new Taojing well, and the water weight is faintly inferior to crab roe". The annotation reads: "The Shenming Pavilion well water is excellent, and when used to make wine, it weighs only two pounds". Mr. Fu Shan, a patriotic poet, calligrapher, and medical expert in the late Ming Dynasty, personally wrote the four characters "Creating Fragrant Flowers" for the ancient well of Shenmingting, indicating that the Apricot Blossom Well Spring is uniquely endowed and produces fine wine that is as refreshing as the fragrance of flowers
