  • TOP.1 Ninghua Province

    Ninghua Province Shanxi

    Shanxi is known as the vinegar capital, and the old vinegar produced in Shanxi is the first of the four famous vinegars in China. There are many vinegar brands in Shanxi, but surprisingly, the most well-known brands are basically young brands, and Yiyuanqing is the only brand with a long history. The history of Yiyuanqing vinegar can be traced back to the early years of the Ming Dynasty, because it is located in an alley in Ninghua Mansion, Shanxi Province, it is called Ninghuafu vinegar by the locals. There are two brewing methods of Shanxi old vinegar, one is the pre-liquid and post-solidification method, and the other is the pure grain full-solid koji method. Most brands use the pre-liquid and post-solidification method, that is, the liquid fermentation of a single strain is used in the early alcohol fermentation process, and the solid-state fermentation is used in the later stage, the disadvantage of this method is that the fermentation flavor is insufficient, the acidity is not enough, and preservatives and flavor agents must be added after vinegar. The method of all-solid koji is more primitive, and only Daqu (multi-strain) made of pure grains is used, and the finished product is rich in vinegar and mellow in taste. Ninghuafu vinegar adopts the pure grain whole solid koji method, after 4 times of vinegar, the acidity of the original vinegar is higher than...

  • TOP.2 East lake

    East lake Shanxi

    Compared with the more than 600 years of history of Ninghua Mansion, East Lake is quite young, and it is a new trademark registered by Shanxi Laochen Vinegar Factory in 1956. Shanxi Old Aged Vinegar Factory was established by Meiheju and 21 vinegar mills, which is the descendant of Shanxi Old Aged Vinegar and is known as the first vinegar workshop in China by industry insiders. East Lake Vinegar Garden is the country's first vinegar industry tourism park, in 2004 was rated as a national industrial tourism demonstration base, more than 300,000 tourists come every year, but also the national vinegar industry manufacturers to learn from the experience. East Lake vinegar has followed the fumigation method created by the predecessors, and combined with the summer sun, winter ice method to make vinegar, the vinegar texture has a sense of heaviness that most brands can not achieve, and the grain aroma is strong. This is most evident in the handmade aged vinegar series, sorghum is fully fermented under the action of microorganisms, and then aged in a pottery clay pot, the total acid reaches 8g/100ml, which is higher than the acidity of Ninghuafu products in the same year, although the taste is still not as rich as Ninghuafu, but it is obvious that the aftertaste is slightly sweet, and drinking directly does not feel sour and stimulating. 6 Craft aged vinegar is a highly regarded product of East Lake, which was produced in 1981, 1985 and...

  • TOP.3 water tower

    water tower Shanxi

    Since ancient times, the number of vinegar brewed in Shanxi, Shanxi vinegar brewed in Qingxu, Qingxu is China's largest production base of aged vinegar, vinegar production more than 60% of Shanxi province. Shuita is the largest vinegar enterprise in Qingxu, with an annual production capacity of 180,000 tons, ranking second in the country. However, the competition in Shanxi's vinegar industry is fierce, and the high production capacity of water towers cannot dominate the Shanxi aged vinegar market. Handmade vinegar is quite common on the market, most brands of handmade vinegar follow the traditional brewing process, without adding preservatives, freshness agents, etc., but the handmade vinegar of the water tower is done more thoroughly, not only using the original solid-state fermentation method, but also in the fermentation process of pure manual turning, more able to master the vinegar fermentation process, the acidity of the vinegar is higher than the general vinegar, the total acid of the manual three-year-old vinegar is 6g/100ml, which is difficult to do for ordinary three-year aged vinegar. Unfortunately, in addition to handmade vinegar, the acidity of other products of Shuita is insufficient, only reaching the average level of 4.5g/100ml of aged vinegar, which is also one of the reasons why Shuita is not as good as Ninghua Mansion and East Lake. In addition, most of the water tower contains preservatives, colorants and other food additives, but the amount of additives is...

  • TOP.4 Purple Forest

    Purple Forest Shanxi

    Founded in 2000, Zilin Vinegar Industry is the upstart of Shanxi vinegar enterprises, which is the fastest growing vinegar enterprise in recent years, and has become the vinegar brand with the highest market share in Shanxi in just a few years. Zilin was the first Shanxi old vinegar company to prepare for listing, but there were many doubts during the period, and finally Zilin suspended the IPO review in April 2018. Zilin continues to seek diversification to test the water, at present, the main products are brewed vinegar, health vinegar, fruit vinegar, vinegar drinks, brewed cooking wine and so on, only vinegar has old vinegar, aged vinegar, white vinegar, rice vinegar, ginger vinegar, ginger garlic vinegar, cold vinegar, stinging vinegar, dumpling vinegar, etc., the varieties are the most abundant among many Shanxi aged vinegar brands. Diversification is the biggest advantage of Zilin, but the quality is slightly inferior, compared with Ninghuafu, Donghu and other big brands, Zilin vinegar is slightly lighter in color, the total acid only reaches the average level of 4.5g/100ml of aged vinegar, it smells less of the strong aroma of grain, but it is enough to use it as a daily seasoning, the price is more than ten yuan, and the competitive advantage is obvious at the same price. If you want a rich taste, the handmade Shanxi old vinegar series is worth a try.

    Rifle Shanxi

    Laifu vinegar industry, which has always been low-key, also comes from Qingxu, the vinegar capital, and was founded by Rong Xueze, a national senior vinegar brewing expert, but compared with the high-capacity hegemony of the water tower and the high-profile preparation of Zilin for listing, Laifu has never done large-scale publicity, and has won the hearts of consumers with its traditional taste and good reputation, and its current market share ranks fifth among all Shanxi vinegar companies. Shanxi aged vinegar has a strong sour taste, which is not acceptable to all consumers, so most vinegar companies will make improvements, although the total acid of the old vinegar on the market reaches 6.0g/100ml, but it tastes softer. However, Laifu old vinegar insists on using the original recipe and brewing process of Wang Laifu, the founder of Shanxi old vinegar, and the acidity of the same 5 years of aging can reach 9, and the vinegar can smell the rich and sour aroma of grain fermentation when the bottle is opened, and the sour taste in the mouth is full of mouth, which is very refreshing, but then the sweetness and umami slowly emerge, and it is even closer to the traditional Shanxi old vinegar flavor than Ninghuafu, which is quite popular with Shanxi people. However, consumer acceptance is also showing a polarized trend, love is full of praise, and those who are not used to it will take a sip and then ...

    Tianli Tianjin

    Many people don't know that Duliu old vinegar was once a tribute to the palace, and Shanxi old vinegar, Zhenjiang balsamic vinegar and known as China's three famous vinegar, but by Baoning bran vinegar, Yongchun old vinegar came later, and now retains the production of Duliu old vinegar brewing technology can be counted, the most well-known of which is Tianli, which is very popular in North China and Northeast China. In fact, the raw materials and brewing process of Duliu old vinegar are the same as those of aged vinegar, which can also be regarded as a kind of aged vinegar. There are generally two kinds of solid-state fermentation process: solid-state raw meal fermentation and solid-state clinker fermentation, and Tianli Duliu old vinegar uses solid-state clinker fermentation, which has a higher starch utilization rate and produces more aromatic substances than raw meal fermentation. Tianli No. 1 old vinegar and No. 2 old vinegar are the classics of Duliu old vinegar, the taste is delicate and soft, and the total acid is not high, only 3.5g/100ml, which is also the reason why Duliu old vinegar is gradually eliminated. The old vinegar has a strong sour taste in the mouth, although the sour taste of the old vinegar is light, it stays in the mouth for a longer time, and it will disappear in 3-5 seconds. Tianli products cover medium, high and low grades, rich selection levels, as well as dumplings...

  • TOP.7 HADAY Haitian

    HADAY Haitian Guangdong

    Haitian has been in the soy sauce industry for many years, and has already become a well-deserved leading enterprise, and this strong corporate strength has also become a solid background for Haitian to enter the other condiment market, just as in the field of vinegar in just a few years, it has jumped to the fifth position in the sales industry, and the future is quite potential. Speaking of vinegar, people are familiar with Shanxi aged vinegar, Zhenjiang balsamic vinegar, etc., for Haitian vinegar, there are even many vinegar lovers jokingly called soy sauce-flavored vinegar. This is not unfounded in terms of taste alone, especially when it comes to aged vinegar. Generally speaking, aged vinegar is made by fermenting a variety of grains, and the compound aromatic smell is rich and rich, and high-quality aged vinegar can also smell sour, but Haitian's aged vinegar is not only the main ingredient of the grain, but also adds spices and yeast extracts, resulting in an obvious compound smell, and even overshadows the sour taste of vinegar, which is similar to the aroma of soy sauce, but it is also suitable for daily seasoning or making dishes such as chicken feet with aged vinegar. In terms of product line, Haitian aged vinegar has three types of aged vinegar, aged vinegar and aged vinegar, and the total acid concentration is increased by 3.5g/1...
