On the banks of the Yazi River in Guanghan, Sichuan, stands an archaeological site that shook the world — Sanxingdui. Mysterious bronze masks, a divine tree reaching toward heaven, exaggerated protruding-eye figures… the ancient Shu civilization left countless enigmas here. Today, this treasure of ancient Shu enters the Chinese dining table in a brand-new way: Jiannanchun Qingtongji (Bronze Chronicle), the first baijiu officially licensed by the Sanxingdui Museum.
I. Sanxingdui: The Astonishing Awakening of Ancient Shu
The discovery of the Sanxingdui site rewrote the understanding of the origins of Chinese civilization. The bizarre, masterfully crafted bronzes prove that more than 3,000 years ago, the ancient Shu people possessed a highly developed civilization and aesthetic. The bronze masks, with protruding eyes, wide mouths and large ears, were symbols of divine authority that bridged heaven and earth — the ultimate expression of ancient Shu imagination.
"Twin treasures of Shu, same root and same origin" — Mianzhu, home of Jiannanchun, lies on the northern edge of the Chengdu Plain alongside Sanxingdui, sharing the same land and waters. A thousand years on, two treasures of Shu — bronze and baijiu — converge at last.
II. The First of Its Kind: Officially Licensed by the Sanxingdui Museum
Jiannanchun Qingtongji is the first baijiu in China officially licensed by the Sanxingdui Museum, crafted in partnership with the Jiannanchun distillery. It was launched to mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of modern archaeology in China, in a limited edition — every bottle carries inherent collectible and commemorative value.
The first baijiu officially licensed by the Sanxingdui Museum — where the bronze mask meets the famed liquor of Shu. Twin treasures, same roots, carrying forward Chinese civilization with confidence.
III. Intangible Heritage Craft: Master Quality Control
Matching its cultural value is a solid liquid inside. Jiannanchun Qingtongji is made from selected sorghum, wheat, rice, glutinous rice, corn and other grains, brewed with techniques inscribed on the national intangible cultural heritage list, under master quality control with layer upon layer of selection. A nongxiang baijiu at 52% vol, 500mL, produced to the GB/T 19961 standard — this is no mere ornamental "cultural souvenir," but a fine liquor worthy of slow savoring.
IV. Wine as a Carrier of Culture: Bringing Relics into Daily Life
Behind museum glass, the bronze masks feel distant; but a bottle of Qingtongji brings ancient Shu civilization within arm's reach. It is a deep dialogue between baijiu and cultural heritage — the relic as soul, the fine liquor as body. For friends who love culture, it is a gift that "brings the museum home"; for wine lovers, it is a bottle with story and substance.
