What is the best wine for soaking medicinal liquor?
There are white wine, yellow wine and fruit wine suitable for soaking wine in the market, each with its own characteristics.

1, white wine

Liquor is the mainstream drink now, which belongs to distilled liquor and has less evil taste. If you choose white wine, you'd better choose high-alcohol liquor with a temperature above 50 degrees. As far as mainstream flavor types are concerned, both fragrant flavor types and rice flavor types can be used to make wine.

Luzhou-flavor liquor is not impossible, but the ester fragrance of Luzhou-flavor liquor is relatively strong, and it will produce an unspeakable strange smell when mixed with the fragrance of herbs. Most people will find it unpleasant and unpalatable, and the maotai-flavor wine is also very different.

2. Yellow rice wine

Yellow rice wine belongs to the fermented wine brewed by grain, and its degree is about 15. Yellow rice wine is named after its yellowish color. In fact, some rice wine is dark brown and some is red. Because it is rich in nutrients needed by human body, it is known as "liquid cake".

If the nutritional value of wine is required, yellow wine is a good choice. However, as the base of medicinal liquor, the quality of yellow rice wine must meet the standard, and the wine body should be yellow, brown and transparent, with mellow aroma and soft and refreshing taste. In addition, the choice of medicinal materials is very important. Some medicinal materials have higher requirements, so it is better to choose medicinal materials with lower requirements for alcohol.

3. Fruit wine

In the real world, some people have a low tolerance for alcohol. If it happens that medicinal materials do not require high alcohol content, then fruit wine with alcohol content above 20 degrees can come in handy. For example, bayberry wine, carambola wine and so on can be used. Fruit wine is a good choice if the fragrance of medicinal liquor is required.

Selection of brewing degree of medicinal wine

If there are no additional requirements for medicinal liquor such as fragrance and nutrition, it is recommended to choose high-purity grain liquor with 50-60 degrees. Because, no matter what kind of medicinal materials, they all contain bacteria and water, and the bactericidal effect of bacteria or germs is stronger than that of low-alcohol wine.

In addition, the exudation of water in medicinal materials will also lead to the decrease of degree, so high-alcohol wine is more suitable for sterilization and has good quality guarantee effect. Moreover, the degree of low-alcohol liquor itself is low, and the leaching effect of drug essence is weak, so it is best to choose high-alcohol liquor for brewing medicinal liquor.
