At the Sanxingdui site in Guanghan, Sichuan, archaeologists have unearthed bronze masks of astonishing form — protruding eyes, broad mouths, large ears — their gaze piercing through millennia and still commanding awe. “Sleeping for millennia, awakening the world” is precisely their story.
Jiannanchun · Qingtongji (Mask Edition) is a premium limited edition co-launched by Jiannanchun and the Sanxingdui Museum to mark the 25th anniversary of the museum’s opening — a bottle of unique collectible and commemorative value.
I. Sanxingdui: The Ancient Shu Civilization That Slept for Millennia
Sanxingdui is the crowning witness to the ancient Shu civilization of the upper Yangtze. The bronze sacred trees, the great standing figure, the bronze masks — objects so strange in form and so refined in craft that they reshaped the world’s imagination of ancient China, and are hailed among the greatest archaeological discoveries of the twentieth century.
The mask is Sanxingdui’s most iconic symbol. Majestic, mysterious and solemn, it is believed to have been the medium through which the ancient Shu people communicated with heaven and offered sacrifices — a face veiled in gold, signifying both nobility and reverence.
II. Famous Wine Meets National Treasure: A Meeting of Two Civilizations
The Jiannanchun–Sanxingdui collaboration is a meeting of Sichuan’s cultural calling card and Sichuan’s famous wine. Jiannanchun’s traditional brewing technique is inscribed on the National Intangible Cultural Heritage list; brewed by intangible-heritage craft, controlled by master distillers, and selected layer by layer, it becomes a masterpiece.
One bottle, two civilizations: on one side the mysterious imagination of the ancient Shu people, on the other the contemporary craftsmanship of a thousand-year wine lineage. “A famous wine of Shu, in tribute to the Shu civilization” — that is what this bottle wants to say.
III. Nongxiang at 52°: The Taste of Shu Terroir
Qingtongji (Mask Edition) is a strong-aroma baijiu at 52% vol, 500ml, made from water, sorghum, wheat, rice, glutinous rice, corn and barley, to the national standard GB/T 19961.
Grain from the western Sichuan plain, glacial meltwater from the Jiuding Snow Mountains, a warm and humid climate — the terroir of Shu, distilled into that rich, mellow, sweet and crisp nongxiang in the glass.
IV. A Limited Treasure: Made for Collecting
Limited release, museum collaboration, commemorative significance — three keywords that make Qingtongji (Mask Edition) inherently collectible. It is more than a bottle of wine; it is a cultural keepsake to be passed down.
