The highlight of the event is the specially curated Baijiu showcase where visitors will get to taste new and premium expressions of the potent Chinese liquor. They will also be introduced to the ritualistic Baijiu culture (a mainstay in Chinese wedding, holiday and business festivities even today), journey through its thousand-year history and learn how it has grown to become one of the world’s most popular spirit.
