China is famed for it's drink called 白酒 (bái jiǔ). It literally translates into English as “White Alcohol / Spirit” or “Wine Wine”. Don’t be fooled though, this is no regular wine. ‘Baijiu’ is a strong spirit made from grain that comes in many varieties. It is usually sorghum based, but it can also be made from wheat, rice, barley and other grains. Its alcohol content varies from 28% up to around 65%.
