Qinhuangdao Tianma Liquor Co., Ltd. is the largest and most technologically advanced private liquor brewing enterprise in Qinhuangdao. It originated from the Taoying Distillery during the Qianlong era and boasts a long history of liquor production. The company currently employs over 580 staff, including more than 60 senior brewers and various engineering technicians. Covering an area of 58,000 square meters, the company is located in the scenic and conveniently accessible eastern part of Funing County, Qinhuangdao City. It lies 30 kilometers east of the ancient city of Shanhaiguan, 18 kilometers south of the famous summer resort Beidaihe, 10 kilometers west of Jieshi, and 20 kilometers north of Tianma Mountain, with the Yanghe River encircling it.
On December 18, 2002, Qinhuangdao Tianma Liquor Co., Ltd. was officially restructured from a state-owned second-tier enterprise into a private enterprise. Since the restructuring, Tianma Liquor has expanded its production scale to include mineral water, paper products, feed processing, carbon dioxide purification, and other fields, forming a diversified, modern, and group-oriented enterprise that has demonstrated unprecedented vitality and vigor.
The company is equipped with advanced machinery, strong technical expertise, and first-class distillation, fermentation, and bottling workshops. It also features technically advanced chromatography analysis labs, testing labs, blending rooms, and highly skilled tasting and blending personnel. It can produce 15,000 tons of edible alcohol and 28,000 tons of liquor annually. In September 2003, it passed the ISO9001:2000 international quality management system certification in one go.
A renowned local cultural liquor and one of Qinhuangdao’s top ten best-selling liquor brands — the “Jintianma” series — the liquor is known for its clear and transparent appearance, rich cellar aroma, mellow and sweet taste, clean finish with lingering flavor, and is beautifully packaged at reasonable prices. It has won numerous awards in domestic and international competitions and is highly favored by consumers, often described as “the aroma of distillates spreading across Qinhuangdao, the taste of liquor crossing Shanhaiguan.”
Starting with a “new enterprise, new image, new product,” the company adheres to green production principles, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. Building on its existing Yanghe Chun, Tianma Lake, and Nandaihe series, and drawing inspiration from the touching legend of Emperor Qin Shi Huang worshiping the sea in search of immortality, along with the poetic tale “Liyi Shen Shan Zhi Hai Bian, Qin Huang Ceng Ci Qiu Xian, Qiu Xian Ke Lai Shan Yi Zui, Bai Hai Ren Qu Jiu Hai Xiang” (The divine mountain stands by the sea, where Qin Shi Huang once sought immortality; visitors to the mountain were drunk with its beauty, and those who prayed by the sea left with the lingering scent of wine), the company has continued and developed the “Qin Huang Qiu Xian Gong” series of liquors. These embody the historical civilization of the Qin Dynasty and unique local flavors. Launched as premium liquors representing Qinhuangdao — the only city in China named after an emperor — they have been introduced to the market and promoted nationwide.
The “Qin Huang Qiu Xian Gong” liquor boasts a noble and elegant appearance. With a long heritage, it adheres to traditional brewing techniques and encapsulates the essence of historic fine liquors. Each drop is mellow, rich, and profound. Since its launch, the “Qin Huang Qiu Xian Gong” series has been widely loved by consumers and is a top choice for banquets and gifts. It has been named a “Featured Tourism Commodity” by the Qinhuangdao Municipal Government, designated as the “Official Liquor for the 11th Hebei Provincial Games,” and in August 2004, the series was honored with the title “Famous Cultural Liquor of China.” On January 15, 2005, it was further appointed as the exclusive official liquor for the patriotic overseas Chinese business Spring Festival gathering at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
Building on its strengths to lead the future, Mr. Luo Xingping, Chairman of Qinhuangdao Tianma Liquor Co., Ltd., along with all employees, will continue to uphold the business philosophy of “Unity, Pragmatism, Innovation, Vision, Diligence, and Enterprise Development.” They remain committed to forging ahead, striving for success, and creating brilliance together with friends from all walks of life.
