Production Technology: The product adopts the characteristic ivory white ceramic bottle, the material combined with the form of illustration, which are more classical, and the outer box is paper based with leather craftsmanship, which is simple and fashionable, reflecting the cultural charm.
Design Challenge: In terms of wine brewing, wetland green raw grains are selected and brewed with soft and soft three-low technology. The temperature should be kept between 15-20 degrees Celsius and the relative environmental humidity should be kept at about 70%, which is exactly why Yanghe brand's soft quality is created.
Research: A jar of fine Baijiu is not only a review of the development of Baijiu making skills in Guyu, but also a "fermentation" of original intentions and ingenuity in time, creating a feeling of peaceful homeland and prosperous country. At the same time, Classic Blue Sealed Baijiu (2020 version) is reflecting the value of its collection. It is carrying humanism and history, can apply to wedding banquets, giving gifts, and other precious moment of life.
Inspiration: The custom of sealing the jar of Baijiu has been in existence in ancient times. After thousands of years of development, this has gradually changed from the initial sacrificial ritual to the praying that condensed the cultural atmosphere. During Guyu, people’s hopes are engraved in every jar of the “Sealing Baijiu”.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2019 in Suqian, Jiangsu and finished in April 2020, Suqian, Jiangsu.
Operation Flow: The design form is mainly adopting illustration, and the painting form integrates traditional elements, highlighting a strong humanistic feeling. The bottle design adopts a more distinctive square body, which is close to the pavilion, and it's full of Jiangsu unique charm. The corrugated line on the side of the bottle adopts the design of Baijiu rope. The knot of the rope has the meaning of reunion and auspiciousness since ancient times. While the Baijiu rope is also close in appearance to the ear of wheat, one of the raw materials for Baijiu making. Barley also has the meaning of "big sales", which is a beautiful expression for a life full of hope.
