Today's #experiment is starting relatively mildly with the [#Hakka #glutinous #rice #wine](https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/559169315722272304) I'd mentioned earlier. It's 25%, but it drinks like fruit juice and is thus exceptionally dangerous for those of us who don't like drunkenness.
(N.B. I don't like being drunk. I love being tipsy; the feeling of a drink inside of me. I hate feeling drunk.)
The results were very interesting. Some of them I expected (the drink is no longer dangerous: it is very clearly a potent alcoholic beverage when warmed!), but some of them unexpected (the flavour profile changes dramatically, giving it a "sparkling" sensation on the tongue and making the sour complex of flavours stand out in the forefront). It's still sweet. It still tastes delicious. But it's an entirely new beverage and it no longer brings with it the accidental drunkenness the cooled version brings.
Details on the vessels are in the alt text.

This deadly substance is made by some Hakka farmers in Jiangxi. They are a highly specialized producer with a very narrow product line consisting entirely of this beverage at levels of alcohol ranging from 0.5%-42%ABV (1-84 proof). For me the bingo point โฆ and the most dangerous โฆ is this: 25%. At this concentration this drinks like fruit juice but kicks like a STRONG fortified wine. It's dangerously easy to overimbibe. The liquor is made from a particularly sweet strain of "sticky-rice" that is brewed more like a beer than a wine and then further concentrated using various techniques including distillation to reach the desired strength. The plastic jug is part of the rustic charm.
