I’m sure to a lot of people this fact is no surprise, but from my neck of the woods I haven’t even heard of this stuff.
It’s actually not very popular, but there’s this one guy in some rural town in China…
Baijiu Georg is a statistical anomaly
Baiiju Georg is an outlier and should not be counted.
When I visited one part of China I was looking for a big bottle of water to keep in my hotel room and went to the local store. I found a big 5L plastic bottle but when I looked at the label I realised it was Baijiu, not water. Something like 57% ABV, and it cost the equivalent of a few US dollars.
Baiju is so disgusting.
That word sounds both foreign and vaguely racist, and I’m a little afraid to find out why.
It’s what my Chinese coworkers called it when i worked in china so no
It’s Chinese white alcohol with a fairly high alcohol content. The word itself is literally just the pinyin (aka the way to write Chinese words using an English keyboard) written out.
So “Bai” is white and “jiu” is alcohol.
lol, so I don’t think there’s any racist connotation to it, although it can seem that way.
rice wine… 🤢
Go drink a Soju
