Wan Shu Chun Liquor

　　Wan Shu Chun Liquor is a specialty of Susong County, Anqing City, Anhui Province. It boasts a richly aromatic, mellow, and harmonious flavor with a smooth and well-balanced taste. Not only does it inherit the noble and elegant lineage of Wuliangye, but it also creates a uniquely mild and rich quality, filling a gap in Anhui Province for producing distilled liquor using five-grain ingredients.

　　Anhui Wan Shu Chun Liquor Co., Ltd. is located on Baiyang River in Susong County, the southwestern gateway of Anhui Province. Susong, anciently known as Songzi Marquisate, has a history of over two thousand years. With its beautiful mountains and clear waters, it is an ideal place for brewing liquor. As early as before the Tang Dynasty, it was renowned as "Ten Thousand Households' Tavern" and "Ten Li Peach Garden." According to the Susong County Annals, the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai frequently visited Susong to socialize, travel, taste liquors, and compose poetry. Among his famous lines widely circulated are, “Two men drinking beneath blooming mountain flowers, glass after glass they drink, again and again.”

　　The company was originally named Susong County Winery, established in 1954 as a key enterprise in Susong County. In 1991, it introduced technical personnel and brewing techniques from Wuliangye Distillery. Combining local water, soil, climate, and resource conditions, the company conducted scientific research and developed the Wan Shu Chun series of products using rice, corn, glutinous rice, wheat, and sorghum as main ingredients. Building upon the inheritance of Wuliangye's brewing process, and through the dedicated efforts of two national first-class wine tasters and blenders, the new generation of five-grain original mash liquor series was created. It features a richly aromatic, mellow, and harmonious flavor with a smooth and well-balanced taste. Not only does it inherit the noble and elegant lineage of Wuliangye, but it also creates a uniquely mild and rich quality, filling a gap in Anhui Province for producing distilled liquor using five-grain ingredients. In 2010, Tang Qiao, Chairman of Wuliangye Group, even made a special trip to Wan Shu Chun to learn about production, further continuing this story of friendship — marking also one of the most significant chapters in the heritage history of the Wan Shu Chun brand.

　　In 2008, the company invested an additional 50 million yuan in the industrial park to expand and upgrade the original winery, introducing advanced production equipment which greatly improved productivity and product quality. The company now covers an area of 50,000 square meters, with an annual liquor production capacity of 10,000 tons. In 2009, it obtained three certifications simultaneously: ISO9001 International Quality Management System, ISO14001 Environmental Management System, and OHSAS18001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System. It has become a large-scale liquor enterprise in southwestern Anhui.
