Helps my kung fu. Its different from other spirits it goes to the spleen and you can keep your balance even when you toe up. Tequilla makes me into an Aztec Huizalipotchli, Bai jiu turns me into Li Bai.
Ever train with the bai jiu?
Where can you buy some Mao Tai (thats how I roll) in the US?
Apparently it also makes you hallucinate. . .waitasec..I already knew that!
when i drink rice wine i buy a watermelon, then i sit on a chair and stare at the floor. then i smash the watermelon.

Real men drink Baijiu.
My drug of choice tends to be (52% alcohol, made from sorghum but with some rice, wheat and corn in the blend.
As it happens, today (speaking of Li Bai…) I am drinking Taibai (50% alcohol, made from sorghum, wheat and (dried?) peas. NO RICE!
1 li bai was a poet. a bit drinking relaxed him and good poems created.

Drink a single malt scotch whisky if you want to have a real drink.
Typical middle class Chinese monthly income in the city: 300-500$
Price of a (3/4 litre) bottle of decent single malt scotch: 30$
Price of a (1/2 litre) bottle of either of the Chinese drinks I mentioned: <1$
A bottle of single malt scotch costs about equal to my entire disposable income for 1 week.

I can guarantee you it will be worth it! 
It’s an acquired taste . . .

we may confide our feelings/emotions with mountain and water.

Ng Ga Pei (wu Jia Pei) is the drink of Warriors!
Absinthe is the drink of poets, artists, musicians, and writers.
I can’t abide scotch, but I quite like Bai Jiu. And anything that gets you that wrecked for 3 Yuan is a winner

Comparing fine scotch with er gua tou? Silly savages.
I have had imperial rice wine, it is not like anything you have ever had. Good baijiu is incomparabe, which is why I am looking for it in the US.
It is also important for pao jiu. Herbal wines are important for kung fu. Even shaolin monks had training wines because kung fu trumps Buddhism.
Hey pretty lady can I Bai Jiu a drink or something?

I can’t stand bai jiu.
Xing Huar Cun was potable (barely) and you could make a drinkable ****tail from 1 part high-quality bai jiu, two parts sprite, two parts red bull but, really why bother?
Scotch is available in China after all.
