Baiju | 45% ABV
Commercial Description:
Ming River is the original Sichuan baijiu. Using traditional methods passed down from master to apprentice for over twenty generations, Ming River is an authentic and uncompromising Chinese grain spirit.
The journey to Ming River baijiu begins in the heart of Sichuan at China’s oldest operating distillery, Luzhou Laojiao. Each batch of baijiu is fermented in earthen pits with locally harvested yeast cultures for two months before it is distilled in a traditional Chinese pot still. The spirit then ages for up to two years before our master blender balances the baijiu to achieve Ming River’s exceptional flavor.
Baijiu is unlike any Western spirit with respect to production methods, ingredients, flavor, and origin.
Baijiu pronounced bye-j’yo, meaning “white spirits” in Mandarin—is a category that encompasses all traditional Chinese grain spirits. Baijiu is most commonly distilled from sorghum but is also often made from rice, wheat, corn, and millet. Baijiu production techniques differ significantly by region and style, and different styles of baijiu can be as distinct as whiskey is to tequila.
