Women's Benefits of Drinking Huangjiu

 

Huangjiu is one of the oldest types of alcohol in the world, originating from China and unique to China. It is known as one of the three ancient wines in the world along with beer and wine. About three thousand years ago, during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Chinese invented the double fermentation method for making alcohol, and began to produce large quantities of Huangjiu. Huangjiu is produced in many regions and has many varieties. Some famous ones include Shandong's Jimo Old Wine, Jiangxi's Gugang Winter Wine, Wuxi's Huiquan Wine, Shaoxing's Zhaoyuan Red, Shaoxing's Daughter Red, Zhangjiagang's Shazhou Youhuang, Wujin's Wugong Old Wine, Baihuayang and other Taoyuan Huangjiu. Shanghai Old Wine, Hebi Yuheshuang, Fujian Minan Old Wine, Jiangxi Jiujiang Sealed Jar Wine, Jiangsu Baipu Huangjiu (Shuiminglou), Jiangsu Jintan and Danyang Sealed Jar Wine, Henan Double Yellow Wine, Guangdong Hakka Niang Wine, Zhangjiakou Beizong Huangjiu, Shaoxing Jiafan Wine (Huadiao Wine), Guangdong Pearl Red Wine, etc.

 

Huangjiu is made from rice, millet, and sorghum, with an alcohol content of 14%-20%, making it a low-alcohol fermented wine. Huangjiu contains abundant nutrients, including 21 amino acids, some of which are unknown amino acids that the human body cannot synthesize and must rely on food intake. Therefore, Huangjiu is known as the "liquid cake".

 

Huangjiu is a special product of the Han nationality in China and belongs to the category of fermented wine. It occupies an important position among the four major types of fermented wine in the world (baijiu, huangjiu, wine, and beer). Its unique brewing technology has become a typical representative and model in the Eastern brewing industry.
