Brand Story
Huguo Rock is located in Naxi District, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province. Its name originates from 1916 (the fifth year of the Republic of China) during the National Protection War, when General Cai E led the National Protection Army to resist the Beiyang Army here and inscribed the characters 'Huguo Rock' on the cliff. In memory of the movement, locals named the place Huguo Rock and gradually developed local specialties such as liquor under this name. Huguo Rock liquor relies on the region's long-standing brewing tradition, using high-quality sorghum and traditional solid-state fermentation. The liquor is mellow with a long finish, making it a historically significant specialty brand in southern Sichuan. Its cultural significance lies in combining the spirit of national protection with local products, inheriting revolutionary history and promoting traditional brewing techniques.
