Brand Story
Baishui Dukang liquor originates from Baishui County, Shaanxi Province, a place famed as the birthplace of Du Kang, the legendary wine ancestor of the Xia Dynasty. Historical records and local relics such as Dukang Valley and Dukang Spring attest to its ancient brewing heritage. During the Northern Wei Dynasty, Jia Sixie's 'Qimin Yaoshu' detailed brewing methods, including the 'Dukang wine' technique, which greatly influenced later generations. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, local breweries flourished, producing liquor renowned for its 'crisp and mellow' quality. Today, the modern Baishui Dukang distillery blends tradition with modern technology, using premium sorghum and wheat, and employing ancient methods like old-pit fermentation and slow fire distillation. The result is a clear, aromatic liquor with a sweet, lingering finish, deeply cherished by consumers. Baishui Dukang is not just a drink; it is a vital carrier of Chinese wine culture, embodying reverence for the wine ancestor and the continuity of tradition.
