Product details
Wu Chia Pi Chiew, also known as Wu Chia Pi medicinal liquor, is a traditional medicinal liquor widely prepared and circulated in Chinese folk culture. It is generally made by soaking Chinese medicinal ingredients such as Wujiapi, ginseng, and cinnamon in baijiu or sorghum liquor. It is believed to have the effects of promoting qi circulation, activating blood circulation, dispelling wind and dampness, relaxing tendons, and activating collaterals.
Wu Chia Pi Chiew originated from the Ming Dynasty and was recorded in Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica." It is described as having the function of "tonifying the middle and benefiting qi, strengthening tendons and bones, enhancing willpower, and prolonging life." According to historical records, Wu Chia Pi Chiew was one of the ten imperial wines of the royal court, with a long history and great renown.
五加皮酒，又称五加皮药酒，在中国民间广泛流传配制的传统药酒。一般以白酒或高粱酒为基，加入五加皮、人参、肉桂等中药材浸泡而成，具有行气活血、驱风祛湿、舒筋活络等功效。
五加皮酒最早出自明朝李时珍的《本草纲目》记载：五加皮“补中益气，坚筋骨，强意志，久服轻身耐老”，民间更盛誉“宁得一把五加，不要金玉满车”。据史料记载，五加皮酒是十大宫廷御酒之一，历史久远，极富盛名。
Upon first tasting Wu Chia Pi Chiew, it gives off a sensation reminiscent of herbal tea, with a strong, lingering sweetness that is not as intense as baijiu. Its golden and translucent hue, along with its subtle and pleasant medicinal aroma, provides a refreshing and smooth mouthfeel, leaving a lingering aftertaste. Each sip brings about a delightful fusion of flavors, leaving behind a long-lasting and satisfying finish.
初尝五加皮酒，有凉茶的口感，浓浓的回味甘甜，并不像白酒那样强烈的刺激感。它的色泽金黄剔透，药香淡雅愉悦，口感舒爽顺喉，回味悠长。每一口五加皮酒都带来了美妙的口味融合，留下持久而令人满足的余味。
Wu Chia Pi Chiew originated in the Yuan Dynasty, flourished in the Ming Dynasty, and reached its peak during the Qing Dynasty, boasting a history of over 600 years. Traditional Wu Chia Pi Chiew is not only a nutritional beverage for Eastern people but also a "treasure of the family" for many households, becoming an essential health product at home. Through modern scientific analysis, it has been found that Wu Chia Pi Chiew contains essential amino acids, various vitamins, and trace elements necessary for the human body. It is no longer just a health tonic for the elderly but also a nutritional beverage for the younger generation.
Golden Bell brand Wu Chia Pi Chiew adopts traditional brewing techniques, incorporating more than ten precious Chinese medicinal herbs such as Cortex Acanthopanax Gracilistylus, Pericarpium Citrus Reticulata, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, Rhizoma Polygonatum Odoratum, Fructus Citrus Medica, and Licorice. These ingredients are soaked in wine jars for preservation, allowing the effective components of the herbs to fully dissolve in the liquor. After several months, red koji, syrup, and Polygonatum odoratum mucilage are added to the soaked mixture, creating a liquor with the effects of dispelling wind and dampness, promoting blood circulation, resolving phlegm, and strengthening bones and tendons.
