Huangjiu () is a type of Chinese rice wine (mijiu) most popular in East China. Huangjiu is brewed by mixing steamed grains including rice, glutinous rice or millet with qū as starter culture, followed by saccharification and fermentation at around for fortnights. Its alcohol content is typically 8% to 20%.
