Link needs clarification

"Maotai use simple materials grain and water"... is "materials grain" an accepted term that merits a link?

Further down the article, there are multiple references to "sauce fragrance": should this really be "source", which could be expanded to "authentic", "original" and so on? MarkMLl (talk) 21:32, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Taste

Many drink reviewers say that Maotai tastes like paint thinner. Should we include this or is this to subjective?Moneyfunky (talk) 00:00, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Paint Thinner

The taste mentions the aroma instead. We should make the aroma separate then explain that multiple reviewers say it tastes like paint thinner which is important information. According to this: https://cocktailsandbars.com/moutai-baijiu-review/ it tastes like savory paint thinner. Moneyfunky (talk) 12:52, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Paint Thinner 2

I replaced taste: Savoury aroma.

With tastes like paint thinner. Multiple sources have confirmed this taste. Moneyfunky (talk) 13:19, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
