The history of Changting yellow rice wine
Drinking is a very common custom in Changting people's diet. Changting people, old people can drink, and young people can also drink. In some areas, wine is used instead of tea in midsummer, which is widely consumed. As for festivals and birthdays, wine is indispensable.
Hakka people in Changting like to hold banquets in their daily lives, which are called wine making. For example, children should brew graduation wine when they graduate, warm sedan chair wine when they get married, three dynasties wine when they are born, full moon wine when they are full, and aged wine for one year when they are one year old.
Old people should brew birthday wine on their birthdays, and artisans and apprentices should brew master wine and sprinkle it, all of which show that wine occupies a very high position in the eyes of Hakkas.
