Chinese people like to drink baijiu. When drinking baijiu, glass cups are used most often instead of disposable paper cups. Why?
First of all, the main material of disposable paper cups is hardwood cotton paper. The nature of this material is not waterproof. In order to make it store water for a long time, the inner and outer walls of the cup will be coated with a seemingly strong and harmless layer during the production process. The layer of “white wax” generally uses water as a protective film, and it is difficult to dissolve the white wax on the paper cup. But everyone knows that this kind of white wax is “waterproof but not alcohol-proof”. Once liquor is poured into a paper cup, this protective film will be dissolved by the wine and enter the wine body, which is likely to pose a certain threat to health.
Secondly, drinkers like to “taste” the wine from its appearance. In the process of pouring the wine, you can observe whether the wine is pure, whether there are impurities and the degree of hanging the glass. Disposable paper cups are opaque, and nothing can be seen except looking down.
Third, no matter it is Maotai-flavored or Luzhou-flavored liquor, there will be “alcohol smell”. The ordinary glass has a small belly, which can well collect the aroma of the wine, and the aroma of the wine will slowly disperse, which is convenient Smell for a better taste and aroma of the wine. Especially for some full-bodied, elegant and delicate wines, glass cups can obtain a better taste bud experience, and disposable paper cups have a larger caliber, which is not conducive to the accumulation of wine aromas.
So, that’s why you should use a glass to drink baijiu. Of course, disposable paper cups are indispensable daily necessities in daily life. Whether it is entertaining guests or holding drinks, disposable paper cups are one of the best choices.
