Rice wine

Deutsch: Reiswein / Español: Vino de arroz / Português: Vinho de arroz / Français: Vin de riz / Italiano: Vino di riso /

Rice wine, called Geo Niang, is a very popular drink in China.

Most of the people from southern China and the warmer provinces know how to prepare it for their own enjoyment and for major festivals.

Rice wine was first discovered when a selected strain of yeast reacted with the water-soluble starch of glutinous rice to form sugar. On further fermentation, this yielded a very fragrant sweet alcoholic brew. Thereafter, it became known as sweet rice wine.
