For the Year of the Snake (Yisi), Royal Jiannanchun answers that wish with an 888mL zodiac commemorative edition — "Yisi Ruishe." The name alone holds echoes of the Five Elements, of direction, season and the zodiac — and the sincere blessing of a great baijiu house for its era.
I. One Year, One Zodiac: One Year, One Treasure
Zodiac commemorative baijiu is a uniquely Chinese cultural genre: pour the twelve-year cycle into a bottle, and let time itself become the theme of collecting. Royal Jiannanchun's zodiac series insists on one edition per year — miss this year, and you wait another full cycle.
Yisi Ruishe is the Snake-year seal of that series.
II. Yisi and Wood: The Spring of the East
The Yisi Snake year belongs to the element of Wood. In the Five Elements system, green represents Wood; Wood corresponds to the East and to the season of spring — the symbols of growth, hope and renewal.
The design draws on the serpent's flowing, sinuous grace — echoing the growth of Wood itself. It conveys vitality and a soaring Year of the Snake, carrying Jiannanchun's good wishes and the ever-renewing energy of the Chinese spirit.
One bottle gathers the imagery of East, spring, growth and rebirth. This is not merely a zodiac symbol; it is one of the oldest and most enduring philosophies of life in Chinese culture.
III. Royal Bloodline: The Imperial Heritage
The word "Royal" traces to Jiannanchun's millennium-old imperial lineage — from the Tang Dynasty, when "Jiannan Shaochun" was recorded as a wine of the imperial court, to today's celebrated national baijiu. Royal Jiannanchun upholds that tradition of imperial-grade grain selection and meticulous brewing.
Yisi Ruishe is made from water, sorghum, wheat, rice, glutinous rice, corn and barley, meets the GB/T 19961 national standard, and comes at 52% vol in a generous 888mL format — exactly the specification a collectible zodiac edition deserves.
