The event, named \"Timeless Brew, Maritime Legend – Exclusive Zhenjiu Tasting on Adora Magic City,\" took place from September 12 to 16, targeting high-net-worth individuals and duty-free consumers.\n\nThis collaboration marks ZJLD's \"go-global\" strategy, moving from a traditional supply-only model to a more comprehensive co-creation model. The event featured exclusive tasting sessions, fashion shows, and workshops, highlighting the cultural heritage and brewing expertise of Chinese sauce-aroma baijiu. Zhenjiu's flagship products, Da Zhen · Zhenjiu and NEWS Oak-Aged Craft Beer, made their international debut during the event.\n\nZJLD's Head of International Business emphasized that cruise ships offer a premium cross-border spending opportunity, serving as a testing ground for the globalization of Chinese baijiu.
