Hunan Biancheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd. is a national high-tech enterprise, a leading agricultural industrialization enterprise in Hunan Province, and a recipient of the Xiangxi Prefecture Governor's Quality Award. The company specializes in producing health products such as wellness vinegar, enzymes, SOD, and ethnic medicinal products using the fermentation and brewing techniques of Hunan Province's intangible cultural heritage.
Since its establishment in 2005, the company has consistently adhered to the philosophy of high-quality development and brand building as its lifeline. Leveraging the ecological advantages of Xiangxi's core microbial fermentation region, it has long upheld the traditional intangible heritage techniques of natural mold-based koji-making and aging for over two years. The company has obtained two invention patents and three provincial-level scientific achievements.
Since September 28, 2008, when its "Mysterious Xiangxi Vinegar" first passed China's organic product certification, the company has maintained national organic food certification for 13 consecutive years. In 2013, it obtained export certification for food production enterprises, allowing its products to be exported to markets such as Germany, France, the United States, and Hong Kong, China, where they are highly favored by consumers.
(Note: "SOD" stands for Superoxide Dismutase, a well-known enzyme in biochemistry, so it is retained in its abbreviated form in the translation.)
**"Mysterious Xiangxi" Organic Fragrant Vinegar** is crafted from organic rice and selenium-rich mountain spring water. Using locally distinctive plants like *Polygonum hydropiper* (red-knees) and golden leaves, the fermentation process begins by introducing natural wild microbes and molds during the high-temperature season between the 6th day of the 6th lunar month and the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. The vinegar undergoes a **"slow fermentation process"**, combining liquid aerobic and anaerobic fermentation, followed by natural aging for over two years.
The product features a **transparent reddish-brown hue**, a **pure and delicate aroma**, and a **mellow, sweet-sour taste**. It contains **no preservatives, artificial flavors, pigments, salt, glacial acetic acid, or any enzyme preparations**, making it an **authentic, all-natural product**. Recognized as a **masterpiece and treasure in China's vinegar industry**, it is hailed as the **"Moutai of Vinegars"**.
This exceptional vinegar has been awarded **gold medals** at numerous international agricultural expos, food fairs, and grain & oil exhibitions.
