China people's research and application of wine can be described as a complete success. Since the appearance of wine, the contents of this cup have been interpreted into countless wonderful stories by our ancestors. So there was the feat of getting drunk and crouching tiger, the heroic spirit of getting drunk and hitting the mountain gate by Lu, and the eternal story of Granny Liu lying drunk in Yihuiyuan.
From brewing and drinking to tasting and discussing wine, wine has penetrated into all aspects of human beings and gradually formed its own unique culture-wine culture. Wine and medicine are inextricably linked. The traditional word "medicine" comes from "unitary", which is also wine. This is probably because the ancestors accidentally ate fermented melon juice and found that it can treat some diseases such as deficiency cold and abdominal pain, thus making wine closely related to the initial medical activities.
There is a treatise on decoction and medicine in Huangdi Neijing, which specifically discusses the way of medication. The so-called "soup" is today's decoction, and "mash" is medicinal liquor. Obviously, during the Warring States period, people had a deep understanding of the medical function of medicinal liquor.
