How about Shikumen rice wine brand introduction

Shikumen brand, a well-known trademark in China, was founded by the original Shanghai Fengjing Distillery, which is now Shanghai Jinfeng Distillery. Shanghai Jinfeng Liquor is the third largest rice wine enterprise in China, second only to Guyue Longshan and Huijishan, and its rice wine brands include Shikumen and Hejiu. Due to its high quality and low price, Shikumen rice wine is well recognized by Shanghainese people, and is one of the most important rice wine brands in the Shanghai market, and is also regarded by the industry as the representative of "Shanghai-style" rice wine.
 
In addition to its good market performance, Shikumen is also closely related to the spread of rice wine culture. On September 15, 2006, Jinfeng Wine House was officially opened in Shikumen Distillery, which is the first museum in China with the theme of rice wine brewing. Jinfeng Wine House comprehensively introduces the development of rice wine in Shanghai from the Song Dynasty to the present, and sets up a wine tasting area for tourists to taste Shikumen rice wine for free.
 
The raw materials of Shikumen rice wine are glutinous rice and wheat, and each wine is a special semi-dry rice wine, with corresponding medicinal materials or flavors added. Compared to similar big brands, Shikumen has a more streamlined product range, so it is also easy to choose.
 
The low-end series includes the black label red label series and the Shikumen No. 1 series, which have been selling well for many years, and the unit price is between 20-40 yuan. Among them, the single product Red Label is the flagship product, which is five years old and adds wolfberry, honey and plum; Its alcohol content is 12%, the wine is typical of amber color, and when warm, it has a tangy aroma, mixed with koji and cereal aromas, and when tasted, it has a mellow taste and a moderate spicy taste of alcohol. Five-year-old rice wine not only retains the mellow and long taste of rice wine, but also weakens the stimulation of alcohol, and the price is affordable, making it the most cost-effective choice. The Black Label of the same series uses eight-year-old rice wine, so it will have a more aromatic aroma and mild taste than the Red Label.
 
One of the high-end collections is a special edition of the "Prosperous Sea Series" – an 18-year-old special semi-dry rice wine with the addition of goji berries, honey and ginger. The sea prosperity series is known for its exquisite packaging design, and the bottle pattern is a Shanghai style painting painted by Li Shoubai, a master of Shanghai painting, which is full of charm and the unit price is about 400 yuan, which is suitable for drinkers who like to collect special wine labels.
