Niu Lan Shan Er Guo Tou Baijiu (75cl, 56%)

A Beijing erguotou baijiu from Niulanshan Distillery, bottled at 56% ABV in a 750ml bottle. It is made from sorghum, wheat-bran qu and water, fermented briefly in stone or steel vessels and rested in ceramic jars for six to twelve months. The style is light-aroma (qingxiang) erguotou. It is milder in aroma but full in strength. On the nose it is light and floral with a hint of pomelo-like citrus. The palate is clean sorghum fire with peppery warmth and grain sweetness. The finish is warm and fades quickly.
