NIR spectroscopy could find fake Chinese liquor
Counterfeiting has undermined the reputation of premium Chinese liquor brands in recent years, but a new study suggests it may become easier to spot the fakes.
The liquor – known locally as baijiu or white spirits – has been consumed in China for centuries and with the burgeoning growth in China’s economy the market has expanded dramatically to reach an estimated $75m a year. It has certainly helped that the spirit tends to be served at both Communist Party banquets and to seal business deals.
