After meeting the production conditions, the winery produced a batch of high-quality Daqu Maotai-flavor base liquor from 2013 to 2014, but did not sell it to the outside world. With the change of the external environment of the industry and the shortage of funds, the distillery stopped production from 2015 until 2019 with the improvement of Maotai-flavor liquor market.
