Who was an alcoholic in ancient times? Who is the wine saint? Who's Brewmaster?
There is no record of drunkards in history. The wine saint is Du Kang, and Brewmaster is Liu Ling and Li Bai.

1, wine saint Du Kang. According to historical records, Du Kang was the monarch of Xia Dynasty and a Taoist priest. Du Kang is the "ancestor of brewing" in ancient legends of China.

Because of Du Kangshan's wine-making, later generations regarded Du Kang as Dionysus, and the wine-making circles regarded Du Kang as their ancestor. Later generations used "Du Kang" to refer to wine.

2. Brewmaster Liu Ling. The legend of Liu Ling's drinking probably begins with "Du Kang got Liu Ling drunk". Liu Ling's relationship with wine should have ended after his dismissal. His bones have been saturated with the idea of "inaction", and now there is really nowhere to do, so he began to debauch the bamboo forest, drink and write poems, and become arrogant and lofty, leaving an eternal wine name.

3. Brewmaster Li Bai, Li Bai loves poetry, wine and the moon. A group of people drink the bright moon alone, telling another artistic conception of life.

The historical origin of China wine;

1, ape brewing

Apes collect wild fruits for a living and are good at hiding them. In nature, the growth of fruit is strictly seasonal, so it often needs to be stored. In the wild times, apes hid temporarily inedible fruits in caves and caves. Over time, the fruit rotted, and the wild fruit with sugar was naturally fermented by wild yeast in nature, resulting in alcohol and wine slurry, which led to legends such as "Apes make wine with wonderful flowers" and "Taste ape wine in the deep rock".

This is recorded in many ancient books in China. Zhou Danguang and Li Rihua, scholars of Ming Dynasty, all mentioned the story of Huangshan ape brewing wine.

2. Brewing in Du Kang.

In the past, most lecturers, songbooks, baojuan, and books gave good advice. Du Kang's view on wine-making is mainly due to the fact that Cao Cao's Yuefu poem "A Short Line" mentioned that "Du Kang is the only solution to the problem" (meaning: what is used to solve depression? Only binge drinking can set you free. ) and popularity. Here, Du Kang is synonymous with wine, so people regard this man named Du as the founder of wine making.
