Brand Story
Xiangshan wine originates from Quanzhou County, Guilin, Guangxi, with a brewing history dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD). According to the Quanzhou County Gazetteer, local winemaking began in the Tang Dynasty and flourished by the Song Dynasty (960-1279). During the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911), the craft matured, with the most renowned distilleries around Xiangshan Temple. The wine is named after the spring water from Xiangshan, and its traditional brewing technique incorporates the wisdom of local ethnic minorities, featuring a unique medicinal yeast process. In the 1950s, the county consolidated private workshops into the state-owned Quanzhou Distillery, later renamed Xiangshan Wine Industry. Xiangshan wine has won multiple awards at Guangxi wine competitions, and its brewing technique is listed as an intangible cultural heritage of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. More than a beverage, it is a vital carrier of folk culture in northern Guangxi, embodying the nostalgia and memories of local people.
