The aged vinegar is dark purple in color and has a long aftertaste of "cotton, sour, sweet and mellow". ? 2. Zhenjiang aromatic vinegar is one of the four famous vinegars, which has the characteristics of "sour but not astringent, fragrant but slightly sweet, rich in color and fresh in taste, and more mellow with age". ? 3. "Baoning Vinegar" has a history of nearly 400 years and is one of the four famous vinegars in China. However, among the four famous vinegars in China, the production scale and economic benefits of "Baoning Vinegar" are far behind. ? 4. Quanzhou Yongchun vinegar originated from the famous Fujian Redmi vinegar in history. Shanxi vinegar

Shanxi people are good at brewing vinegar and jealous, so they are called "old ladies". In ancient times, vinegar was called acyl, the person who brewed vinegar was called acyl, and vinegar was called old acyl. There is a saying that "radish is pickled with soy sauce" in You Shi's Collection of Nine Articles in Han Dynasty, in which "acyl" and "vinegar" both refer to vinegar. So jealousy is not jealousy, but "eating acyl". Because of Shanxi people's special contribution to vinegar brewing technology, coupled with Shanxi people's love for vinegar, and coincidentally, "acyl" and Shanxi's "west" are homophonic, so mainlanders respectfully call Shanxi people "Shanxi old acyl". Shanxi people have deep feelings for vinegar. The history of vinegar making in Shanxi is about 4,000 years, so there is another saying in Shanxi: men are not jealous, their feelings are not rich, women are not jealous, their families are not harmonious, their children are not jealous, their studies are not progressing, and the elderly are not jealous. ? Qingxu is the authentic birthplace of Shanxi mature vinegar, and also the birthplace of China vinegar, with a history of more than 4,000 years. According to legend, after Emperor Yao established the capital Yao (now Yaocheng Village, Qingxu County), he adopted "_ pod" to brew bitter wine. The bitter wine mentioned here is the earliest acidic condiment-vinegar. During the Han and Tang Dynasties, acyl workshops in Jinyang area of Binzhou became increasingly prosperous. From the people to the government, making acyl has become a great hobby in people's lives. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Shanxi's vinegar-making skills became more and more exquisite, and with the migration of Shanxi people and the footprint of Shanxi merchants, Shanxi's vinegar-making techniques and customs were brought to the inside and outside of the Great Wall and the north and south of the great river, making it an important media in Shanxi. ? Over the years, great changes have taken place. After thousands of years of wind and rain, Shanxi mature vinegar has a stronger taste and a better name. Today, Shanxi Shuita Mature Vinegar Co., Ltd. has become a leading enterprise in Shanxi vinegar industry, and the group has developed into the largest production base of high-quality series vinegar in China, with the trademark of "Shuita" and "China Vinegar Capital", the first brand in China vinegar industry.

According to legend, in the 19th year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty, Yu Yang, an official from Wujin County, Jiangsu Province, came to Taiyuan with his family, and was soon ordered to collect public grain at Yangfangkou (now Yangfang Village). When Yu Yang came to Yangfangkou, he saw that Xiaofen River and Yangfangkou River were not in harmony, and Yangfangkou was caught in it, which made him feel like "two dragons playing with pearls", so he decided that "this is a treasure". Then the family moved to Yangfangkou to settle down, and asked their son to set up a vinegar workshop for Jin Wangfu to eat. Because Yang Shu is well managed and protected by the government, the vinegar factory has prospered in less than a few years, and its financial resources are rolling in. Since then, Yangfang Village has been known as "the treasure house of fermented vinegar". ? By the Qing Dynasty, dozens of well-known vinegar workshops had appeared in Yangfang village, and Longwang Miaojing was also famous for the legend of "white snake drinking water". According to legend, during the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, one morning, the chickens crowed at the beginning, and the guys in Shuntai Vinegar Workshop went to fetch water from the well of Longwang Temple. He saw a white snake, several feet long and as thick as a bucket, with its tail wrapped around a drum tower post and its head stuck in a well, and was busy drinking water. The boy was frightened and fled, and told the shopkeeper, who was overjoyed and said, "The white snake is a dragon god. If you drink water from a well with me, you will get rich soon." So, the shopkeeper personally steamed five "big lotus offerings" and went to the Longwang Temple to worship. Later, "Shuntai" really made a fortune. Since then, it has spread more and more, and the well water in Longwang Temple has become famous, and the vinegar workshop has also flourished. In the third year of the Republic of China, Longwangmiao well dried up, and the vinegar well moved northward again, and it was located in Wujiawei (the location of the water tower mature vinegar company). After the water comes out of the well, the water quality is excellent, and the vinegar is also excellent. As a result, large and small vinegar shops opened one after another, and Qingxu's vinegar industry began to flourish.
