Originating in China, Meijian Liqueur is a green plum liqueur produced by Jiangji Distillery. It follows a tradition of fruit-based drinks while incorporating an iconic ingredient of Chinese spirits culture: sorghum baijiu .
The production relies on a traditional Chinese method of sugar candied plums. Fresh plums are processed with sugar for several weeks to gradually extract their juice. This preparation is then combined with baijiu made from sorghum, which serves as the liqueur's alcoholic base.
This combination of fruit and traditional Chinese spirit is one of Meijian's distinctive features. The product showcases two complementary skills: the artisanal processing of green plums and the use of a sorghum alcohol characteristic of China.
