Yanghe Daqu (Jiangsu Baijiu)

白酒はキツいという常識を覆す!海のように深い「綿柔(まろやか)」な青い酒

Vegan

Description

A giant brand brewed in Jiangsu, boasting top-class share in China's Baijiu market. Rather than the 'intense punch' of Moutai or Wuliangye, it established a new genre: 'Mianrou' (Soft/Mellow like cotton). Alcohol stimulation is suppressed to the limit, allowing sweet, elegant aromas to slip smoothly down the throat.

Classification: Adults, Alcohol, Baijiu, Yanghe, Nongxiang Style, Mianrou Style, Jiangsu, Easy to Drink
