What is Daqu liquor and what is Daqu liquor?

Daqu liquor is Daqu liquor, with Daqu as saccharification, fermentation, flavoring agent, Daqu raw materials are mainly wheat, also mixed with wheat and barley, plus a certain amount of peas. Daqu is divided into low-temperature koji, medium-temperature koji, medium-to-high temperature koji and high-temperature koji.

Generally, it is solid-state fermentation, and the quality of the liquor made by Daqu liquor is better, and most of the famous and high-quality liquors, such as Luzhou Laojiao, Baijin Gold Liquor, etc., are made from Daqu. The brewing of koji liquor is divided into two methods: slag removal and slag continuation, Fenxiang liquor (Qingxiang liquor) is mostly produced by slag removal method, while Luxiang liquor and Maoxiang liquor are produced by slag continuation.

Traditional Chinese baijiu is classified according to saccharification starter culture, including Daqu liquor, Xiaoqujiu and bran koji.

Daqu liquor is a liquor produced with Daqu as a saccharification starter agent. Daqu uses wheat, barley, and peas as raw materials.

stepped on or mechanical. Because of its large block size, it got its name.

Daqu is naturally fermented, with a long cycle, high cost and good quality.

Most of the national famous liquor is Daqu liquor.

The liquor made with Daqu as a saccharification starter is called Daqu liquor.

Famous liquor is generally Daqu, because the block of Daqu is relatively large, people at first.

Daqu is named after the size of the appearance of Dakoji, and in addition, Daqu wine generally consumes a relatively large amount of koji, and.

The saccharification fermentation power is low, but the quality of the sake is higher than that of koji.

Starch needs to be converted into alcohol before it can be steamed out during distillation, and when converting alcohol, it is necessary to add koji enzyme to promote the reaction. In addition, there are koji wine, bran koji wine, etc.

Daqu liquor is a large sorghum liquor, which belongs to the strong aroma type, and it is relatively soft to drink and has a strong aftertaste.

The difference between koji and koji:

1. Difference in raw materials. Xiaoqu liquor, also known as liquor medicine, is mainly made of sorghum, rice, and grain as the main material of Xiaoqu fermented medicinal liquor, while Daqu liquor is mainly made of barley, wheat, peas as the main material of Daqu fermented liquor, the two raw materials are completely different.

2. Differences in production processes. The production methods of koji liquor are generally divided into two types: solid-state fermentation and semi-solid-state fermentation, but most of the market uses semi-solid-state fermentation, that is, solid-state cultivation and saccharification followed by liquid fermentation and distillation.

3. Smell difference. The smell of Xiaoqu liquor is generally more elegant and good, not strong or pungent, while the aroma of Daqu liquor is relatively strong, and the fragrance lingers in the mouth for a long time after drinking.

4. Taste difference. Xiaoqu liquor is cool and mellow in the mouth, with a natural taste and a soft aroma, while Daqu liquor is fragrant and fragrant in the mouth, mellow in taste, prominent in smell, and sweet after drinking.

There is a big difference between the big song and the special song, the first song, and the second song. The slag of Daqu finger is a kind of raw material and process. Most of the common liquors on the market are brewed by the Daqu process, which is also a necessary process for highly distilled spirits.

The special qu, the first qu, the second qu, and the third qu refer to the liquor quality grade, the special qu wine quality is better than the first qu, the first qu wine quality is better than the second qu, and so on! "Daqu" is also called "block koji" or "brick koji", most of them are made of barley, wheat, peas, etc. as raw materials, and then after crushing, add water and knead, cast and press into koji of different sizes and shaped like bricks, so that various microorganisms in nature grow on the rubber or noodles and are made, collectively referred to as "Daqu". "Tequ" refers to the premium high-quality Daqu liquor, that is, the Daqu liquor Liang Liangwu, which has a very good quality.

It can also be understood as the "first" high-quality liquor distilled. Most of the "head koji" refers to the name of the distilled spirit. Due to the different processes of the distillery, it can also be understood as the name of the fermentation and storage time.

The division of quality grades can be seen from the names of the special songs, the first songs, and the second songs. Depending on the distillery's regulations, the storage time varies. Most of the special koji wines need to be stored for three years, the first koji needs to be stored for one year, and the second koji needs to be stored for half a year.

However, in recent years, many "Erqu" wines have fallen, and when you hear "Erqu", you think it is alcohol! As long as sake is made, koji is indispensable. There is a saying that is very vivid:

Qu is the bone of wine, and grain is the meat of wine! Water is the blood of wine, and art is the soul of wine! Raw incense depends on fermentation, and Titian relies on distillation!

Molding depends on hooking, and style depends on seasoning"! This shows the importance of koji.

We often hear different expressions about wine, such as special song, first song, second song, big song, etc.

The meanings of these statements vary.

Specifically, the specific meanings of these statements are as follows:

1. Distinctive Daqu.

The big song is different from the special song, the first song, and the second song.

Daqu refers to a kind of brewing of liquor.

Brew sake and laugh with koji. ......The sake brewed by this process is Dakoji.

2. Special songs, first songs and second songs representing different grades.

There are two different meanings of special songs, first songs, and second songs:

1. For distilled spirits, the liquor that comes out for the first time has the best purity and quality, so it is called "special qu".

The quality of the sake that came out the second time was not as good as Teko, but it was also very good, and it was called "Touko".

And so on, the next wine that comes out is called "Erqu".

2. The special song, the first song and the second song represent the brewing time.

In this classification method, Tekoji, Toukoji, and Erkoji refer to the brewing time of the sake.

Brewed for three years, it is a special qu group wine. ......It is also the best quality wine.

If it is brewed for a year, it is the first koji wine. The quality of this wine is also very good.

Brewed for half a year, it is Erqu wine. ......The quality of this wine is relatively average.

The above is the understanding of special songs, first songs, big songs, and second songs.

It can be seen that in addition to the concept that Daqu represents the brewing process of sake, which is a different concept, there are several other special koji, first koji, and second koji, which are similar to the same kind of saying, which represent the different qualities of liquor.
