For many friends who like to drink liquor, they still have a certain understanding of the degree of liquor. The degree of liquor we usually drink is generally divided into two grades: slightly lower than 50, the most common ones are 38, 42 and 45; Above 50, the most common is 52, and the higher one is 60. Although they often drink it, many people still don't know which degree of white wine is healthier to drink. Here is a brief introduction.

Let's talk about the history of liquor, let's talk about the history of China liquor. There was no liquor in China at the earliest. Liquor appeared in two versions. One is that it appeared in the late Song Dynasty, and the other is that it originated in the late Ming Dynasty. This is not an important thing. In fact, the earliest wine we drank was yellow rice wine, also called rice wine, which has a history of thousands of years. Yellow rice wine does not need distillation and belongs to brewing wine. Yellow rice wine is also one of the three largest brewed wines in the world.

Let's talk about foreign distilled liquor, foreign distilled liquor. We are familiar with whisky, brandy, vodka and rum. Among the four distilled spirits, whisky and brandy have the lowest degree, generally around 40; Vodka is generally between 37 and 40, and rum is the highest, generally around 46. Many people know these kinds of foreign distilled spirits, but they don't know what's the difference between them and China's liquor.

In fact, mainly in the early stage of brewing, our distilled liquor, that is, white wine, uses koji fermentation, and foreign distilled liquor does not have this process. Because of this technological difference, the two kinds of distilled spirits have different tastes: the distilled spirits in China are richer in taste, but stronger in flavor. For example, Russian vodka, many people think that Russians can drink it, but the vodka they drink is delicious. If you let them taste our Erguotou, they will choke to death. In fact, they may not be able to drink us.

After introducing the differences between Chinese and foreign distilled spirits, let's get back to the topic and talk about which kind of liquor is healthier to drink. Usually, I often hear a saying that high-alcohol liquor is purer, which not only tastes good, but also tastes healthier. This is definitely a misunderstanding of liquor. Good liquor, regardless of the degree, is good as long as it is brewed from pure grain and the extraction process is in place. Of course, the characteristic of liquor is that it contains a special ester fragrance. If it is lower than 40, the taste will be much lighter. It is best to drink wine and beer. Many people who drink have this feeling. If the degree is too low, you will feel "like drinking water, it is meaningless".
