Fenjiu is a wine that Mr. Jin Yong trusts.
Mr. Jin Yong wrote about the place of Fenjiu in the novel as many as nine times. Ranked next are Shaoxing yellow wine, daughter red, zhuangyuan red and wine, probably written three or four times.
Fenjiu appeared most frequently in "Smiling Proud of the Jianghu".

In Fuzhou, Fujian Province, the wine lin Pingzhi used in the small shop in the mountains after hunting was bamboo leaf green, which was Fenjiu; Huashan thought about the cliff, so that Fox Chong was punished here, Tian Boguang picked two altars of wine for him, which was also Fenjiu; West Lake Meizhuang, Ling Huchong smelled the wine, and said: "Well, there are three pots of aged Fenjiu here." ”
Fenjiu's jianghu status is most clearly explained in "Smiling Proud of the Jianghu". The world's famous wine, the north is Fenjiu, the south is Shaojiu. This was spoken through the mouth of Tian Boguang. Fenjiu, fragrant. It's like that beautiful person, beautiful people, and beautiful voices. Hearing the voice from afar, you can judge, well, this is a beauty. For example, Zu Qianqiu, one of the "Ancestors of the Yellow River", smelled the wine from afar and was amazed, "Good wine, good wine!" "It's good wine!" Zu Qianqiu said that the first sentence of "good wine", probably has not yet distinguished what kind of wine, the second sentence "is indeed good wine", the word "sure enough", must have known that it is Fenjiu, then this sentence is more complete, it should be "Fenjiu is indeed good wine".
Yuan Ming also wrote about Fenjiu in the "Suiyuan Food List". He said that fenjiu was the fiercest of shochu. And shochu, to be fierce is better, naturally, Yuan Ming's meaning, Fenjiu is the best shochu. Li Ruzhen also listed Fenjiu as the top of the list of famous wines in "Mirror Flower Edge".
Why is Fenjiu so favored by talented celebrities? Fenjiu is good, and people who have drunk it know it. Good wine, two or two is enough. This is the praise of my Shanxi classmates for Fenjiu.
Four Shanxi friends came to Shu, entered the restaurant, ordered food, poured tea, and in a trance, when there was a bottle of Fenjiu on the table! But a few of them slowly and unsurprisingly took the wine glasses and divided the wine. I said my guess: brought from Taiyuan? A calm answer: Necessary.
Sichuan and Guizhou all have good wine, but they have not met Sichuan Guizhou as dedicated as Shanxi.
Is it really that good? So good to make Shanxi so proud?
"You don't drink, so you can't say that."
"Whether the wine is good or not, it must be drunk."
……
Where you must need to drink, you can see it.
