Judging from the history of brewing, Yanghe liquor in Suqian originated from Sui and Tang Dynasties, Longsheng and Ming and Qing Dynasties. Suqian has a long history, and its unique environment is especially suitable for wine making. August 20 12, Suqian was officially awarded the title of' China Wine Capital' by China National Light Industry Federation and china alcoholic drinks association.
Suqian wine capital is rich in Yanghe wine and Shuanggou wine among the eight famous wines in China. Because Suqian is located in three rivers, two lakes and one wetland, the unique geographical environment has created the unique soft taste of Yanghe wine and Shuanggou wine. Now Shuanggou and Yanghe have merged into a Suzhou Liquor Group, a veritable liquor capital!
On August 20 12, Suqian was officially awarded the title of "China Wine Capital" by Dream May Come, China National Light Industry Federation and china alcoholic drinks association. Suqian has therefore become one of the only two major wine capitals in China and the only wine capital in East China. Suqian is the only producing area with two famous China wines, Yanghe and Shuanggou, with unique quality, ranking first in industry scale and great economic contribution.
Suqian is a magical fertile land on the territory of China, located at the boundary between the warm zone of east longitude 1 18.4 degrees and the subtropical zone of 33.8 degrees north latitude. It belongs to semi-humid and humid climate with humidity of 60%-80%. Suqian Hongze Lake wetland production area is recognized by the wine industry as the world's three major wetland famous wine production areas. The natural water, soil, air and the ecological environment of brewing microbial flora have created the unique style of Yanghe wine, which is sweet, soft, clean and fragrant.
Suqian in Yanghe and Shuanggou producing areas is the birthplace of Xichu culture and natural wine in China. According to the book "The Drunken Ape in Shuanggou", one morning in the early summer of 1977, Professor Li Chuankui from the Institute of vertebrate paleontology and Paleoanthropology of Chinese Academy of Sciences excavated a gibbon fossil180,000 years ago in a layer of gray mud gravel in Songlinzhuang near Shuanggou Town.
The rise of wine capital is inseparable from the strong and rapid development of Sujiu Group. Shen, a famous liquor expert, has repeatedly proposed that Yanghe should be taken as the benchmark to dilute the aroma and pay attention to the study of taste. In 2002, Yanghe, after 8,000 consumer surveys and tasting, broke the criteria for the division of flavor types, highlighted the softness of liquor body with flavor type stereotypes, and successfully launched soft liquor. Since then, the liquor industry has set off a "soft storm".
