Brand Story
Located in Mianchi County, Henan Province, the birthplace of the Yangshao culture, Yangshao Distillery traces its roots to 1921 when Swedish geologist Johan Gunnar Andersson discovered the Yangshao cultural site, unearthing numerous pottery vessels, including wine vessels, proving that local brewing dates back 7,000 years. Founded in the 1970s, the distillery combines traditional brewing techniques with modern innovation to create its signature pottery-aroma baijiu. The brand name 'Yangshao' honors this heritage, aiming to promote Chinese wine culture. Each bottle is not just a drink but a vessel of Yangshao culture, with product designs incorporating painted pottery motifs, making every bottle a cultural artifact.
