For that sweet dew, she sustained the natural selection of thousands of years.

In accordance with the ancient, traditional and authentic way of brewing Baijiu, which is using only one kind of grain as raw material, Luzhou Laojiao has always been using the grain of supreme quality consistently for brewing--the organic red glutinous sorghum, which grows only in the south Sichuan, so that the Baijiu will become more pure and mellow.

The food safety grading of China consists of general food, pollution-free food, green food and organic food.

In 2001, Luzhou Laojiao built up the first

large and modern plantation to produce organic red glutinous sorghum, the soil and the seeds and grains of which are all well managed to make sure no chemicals are used so that the safety and quality of Luzhou Laoji- ao Baijiu are guaranteed at source.

In 2008, Guojiao1573 passed the national organic food certification, and became the first Baijiu of strong aroma recognized by the country. . Luzhou Laojiao has always regard- ed organic sorghum planting base as the most important part of Baijiu production.

Grain quality shows the quality and suitability of raw crops for Baijiu brewing, especially Sorghum.
Tannin content in sorghum grains is an important factor for the sorghum quality.
Lower fat content(≤4 % )and certain tannin content ( 0.5 %-1.5 % ) are good for improving the Baijiu quality.
The ratio of fat to tannin is roughly2.5:1, and relatively high in content(fat at 4.0 %, tannin 1.6 % ) is conducive to good-quality Baijiu making.

蛋白质含量过高,发酵中使杂菌过度生长,产生令人不愉快的杂味物质。粘性过高,容易板结使糟醅透气性下降,导致发酵效率降低。脂肪和纤维素含量过少,影响白酒风味。含有过多的植酸,导致甜味过高。含有过高的脂肪,将使白酒邪杂味较重。蛋白质含量及脂肪含量过少。薯类含有较高的果胶质影响白酒的口感。淀粉含量较高、易于发酵。脂肪和蛋白质含量配比恰到好处,微生物发酵产香顺利,不会导致杂味物质的生成。高粱含有较高的维生素B3和维生素B5。高粱酿酒醇厚浓郁,香正甘冽,远胜于其他粮食酿酒。
