Drink Baijiu is a platform dedicated to the study of Chinese spirits. Baijiu is the world’s best-selling category of liquor, but beyond China’s borders, it is too often overlooked. We believe that baijiu not only contains within it a world of flavors, but that it has yet to realize its full potential.
Our mission is simple. We want to share what we know about baijiu and empower others to expand upon that knowledge. By starting a conversation, building a community, and promoting those who work with baijiu, we aim to broaden the discussion about what a drink can and should be.
Join us and toast a tradition that spans more than nine thousand years. Ganbei!
