    Mid range baijiu is fine, but holy shit cheap baijiu is a plot by the CCP to discourage drinking.

      The absolute worst baijiu is the stuff that doesn’t even come in a bottle, its kept in a huge barrel and they fill a jug up for you.

      It tastes especially disgusting, but after a while you can taste the sweetness. This is a sign you’ve already drank too much.

        I’ve had that at a buffet, I wasn’t paying attention and didn’t read the “白酒” in big text, and assumed it was water. Maybe it was the full glass of baijiu talking, but it didn’t seem as terrible as the green bottle with the red star.

      Thanks for this, I was going to have to fight my sleepiness to do it if you didn’t.

        I woke up recently and am still very tired (I don’t sleep well). As a result, my eyes are just automatically skimming over the posts. I didn’t even notice the OC listed these until I read your post. So … Thank you!

      What are your thoughts on Ming River? I’ve been liking it, but it’s also the only brand to such I have access.
