Me and my silly friends had done the 茅台 thing a few years back. We opened up a generic 茅台 from BCLS and had a sip... Next thing! We called No. 9 to order take out BBQ duck and deep fried salt n pepper white rice fish!
May be it's us who didn't know about 茅台. We felt better drinking it with the food!
But still personally, I don't really like the woody flavor of 茅台.
I had some "fa due" in HK and Macau when I had the "big gate crabs". And I personally love the flavor of warm "fa due". It's nuttiness and long finish... seems like sherry/tawny port to me. Is "fa due" low in alcohol? It tasted less "harsh". yum!
二鍋頭 sound INTERESTING! (I like rice wine in general. good sake... and the home made sweet sticky rice wine was so good. But my mom doesn't make it any more)
