Time-Honored BrandTaibai · Shaanxi · Founded

Brand Story
Taibai liquor traces its roots to Mount Taibai, the main peak of the Qinling Range in Shaanxi Province, with a brewing history dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD). Legend has it that the renowned poet Li Bai, also known as the 'Immortal Poet,' once visited the area and was so inspired by the local wine that he composed numerous poems, coining the phrase 'A hundred poems for a hundred cups of Taibai.' Hence, the liquor was named 'Taibai' in his honor. During the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911), local breweries flourished, using spring water from Mount Taibai and premium sorghum, fermented in aged cellars and distilled over slow fires to create a distinctive flavor. In modern times, Taibai has blended tradition with contemporary techniques, becoming a celebrated local spirit of Shaanxi. Its clear, transparent liquor boasts a rich cellar aroma, a mellow sweetness on the palate, and a lingering finish, embodying the beauty of the Qinling landscape and the profound culture of the Guanzhong region.
