Anhui Linshui Liquor Co., Ltd. (formerly Anhui Zhonghua Yuquan Liquor Factory), is a famous liquor enterprise in Anhui Province. Linshui Liquor is located in the thousand-year ancient town of west Anhui Province – Linshui. Linshui Liquor has historical stories such as Yuchi Offering Liquor and Yugu’s Rescue; boasts uniquely geographical advantages such as 72 clear springs and three rivers converging; and boasts naturally advanced liquor-making environment. Its predecessor was Wulongxing Workshop, which was founded in the late Qing Dynasty and flourished in the Republic of China. The brand has had a history of more than 100 years.
In 1949, the government of New China established the Anhui State-owned Linshui Liquor Factory based on the original Wulongxing Workshop and became one of the first liquor companies in Anhui Province. In the following decades, the company’s famous liquor such as Linshui Yuquan, Zhonghua Yuquan and Greater China, sold well in Anhui Province and across China, and won the first prize in three consecutive liquor competitions in 1981, 1983 and 1986, which were the only three official liquor competitions held in Anhui Province.
In January 2004, the Factory was wholly acquired by Jindong Group. With the strong capital strength and advanced management philosophy, Jindong Group has injected a steady stream of vitality into the old factory and renamed the Zhonghua Yuquan Liquor Factory to Anhui Linshui Liquor Co., Ltd.
Linshui liquor makers continue the thousand-year liquor-making process and pass on the “Wu’s Secret Methods” of Wulongxing Workshop in the late Qing Dynasty, inherit more than one hundred years of above 100 cellars in Wulongxing Workshop, and devotedly develop series of “Linshuitan” and “Caved Year Liquor of Linshui Yuquan” stored in cave with mixed fragrance. The liquor products are deeply loved by consumers due to the “clear and transparent, cellar fragrant, elegant and long lasting, sweet and mellow, harmonious fragrant and long aftertaste” of liquor body.
Since the establishment of the Factory in 1949, the Linshui liquor has adhered to the craftsmanship of pottery storage. In 2004, Linshui Liquor realized the high specification process of storing liquor in pottery jar and hiding in the cave. The pottery jar for liquor storage is customized from the Chinese pottery capital - Yixing of Jiangsu. The clay and the mineral glaze here are the excellent materials for pottery production. The baked pottery jar has been the best choice in liquor industry since ancient times. The pottery jar walls are covered with fine pores and the air permeability is excellent. The liquor will not leak and can produce a lot of beneficial flavor molecules with the constant temperature and humidity in the liquor cave. During free breathing, the liquor will be gradually purified and retain its fragrance. With the passage of time, the final realization of the liquor body will form aroma fragrance, elegant and clean, mellow and sweet unique style.

In the new round of liquor consumption adjustment period, the mode of cave culture festival is another way to satisfy the individualized and customized demands of liquor consumption, which greatly closes the gap between the brand and the consumers.
