China’s Liquor Market Collapses! ‘King of Cheap Liquor’ Is Dead, Even $2/Bottle Is Too Expensive

The Chinese white spirit "Niulanshan Erguotou," priced at just over ten yuan per bottle, has earned the nickname "the poor man's Moutai" and "the king of cheap liquor." Erguotou is a type of sorghum liquor. Its flagship product, "Bai Niu Er," achieved sales exceeding ten billion yuan in 2019, making it one of the top-selling white spirits in China. At that time, aside from the premium Moutai, "Bai Niu Er" was one of only a few brands to reach this significant sales milestone in the Chinese liquor industry.
