My head is better now, went for a long walk and took some paracetamol. :) Think I drunk a whole bottle and this locally produced baijiu is 60% alcohol. and everyone else did as well..LOL.

BTW Urban Dictionary has this to say about baijiu.

Pure distilled evil in liquid form. Chinese firewater that could be used to put a man on a moon of a planet in a far of galaxy. It tastes like a combination of the fires of hell, rotten Indian food and the after effect of China Syndrome. Can be drunk or snorted through the nose, even though neither one is recommended. Health warnings do not apply. If you stupid to drink it, you deserve everything you get. All it has going for it is that it burns with a rather fetching blue flame. Other uses can be an engine de-greaser, curry stain remover, glass etcher, Room 101 torture.

Urban Dictionary: Baijiu

I had some Hubei Province baijiu last year, and that stuff smells just like kerosene. Fortunately the Inner Mongolian variety doesn't.
 
Mike that sounds awful. Why the torture? :confused:
Our friends off and on live in Korea. I remember him telling stories about drinking soju. That stuff is insanely cheap there.
 
I'm packing today :-) going to see my dad who I haven't seen in 2 years. Packing myself and my three kids and getting things in order is a chore!

It's what we drink here, either that or rather weak tasteless beer. :rolleyes: Imported liquor tends to be extremely expensive, especially whisky. Chinese red wine can be OK, better than what you might think. LOL.

Soju is very much the same stuff. Strong liquor, often distilled from rice or potato. It does vary very much by region. the stuff in Hubei stinks like kerosene, while the Inner Mongolian seems to be OK. It's very cheap here as well.
