Northern Astragalus Yellow Wine

Northern Astragalus Yellow Wine

　　　Produced in Dai County, Shanxi. Northern Astragalus Yellow Wine has a history of over a thousand years. Zhao Bingwen (courtesy name Xianxian Laoren), a renowned scholar and Minister of Rites during the Jin Dynasty, described Daizhou Yellow Wine in his poem "Dai Zhou Shu Shi" with the lines: “Golden waves intoxicate the frontier town of Yanmen, truly like autumn in June here on earth.” The wine at that time was only a primitive form of yellow wine, produced on a small scale and made through home brewing.

　　Dai County Yellow Wine is made using a typical northern production method, where locally abundant astragalus medicinal herbs are hot-soaked, blended, and aged to create Northern Astragalus Yellow Wine. It features a golden-yellow color, clear transparency, sweet and pleasant taste, and delicious flavor. It is known to invigorate the spleen and boost qi, strengthen the body and improve blood circulation, refresh the mind and resist cold, relax muscles and stimulate blood flow, as well as soothe the liver and regulate qi. It is also commonly used in medicine as a guiding herb and can serve as an excellent cooking ingredient. Regular consumption may contribute to longevity.
