Top 10 Best-Selling Tequila Brands—Ranked by Reputation and Popularity: 1. Jose Cuervo (Hao Shuai Kuai Huo) Mexican Tequila, Imported Spirit, Hao Shuai Golden Gift Box, 750 ml The color of this tequila is truly beautiful—I bought it for the first time! Its hue is golden-amber, and it’s crystal-clear when poured into a glass—accompanied by a complimentary tasting glass. In terms of taste, it’s exceptionally smooth and refreshing. Though I’m not particularly knowledgeable about spirits—and this was my first experience with tequila—the drink left me feeling invigorated and clear-headed. Excellent! 2. Olmeca Tequila (Silver), 700 ml I bought this purely out of curiosity—and what an experience! It’s bold, fiery, and full-flavored. High in alcohol content, it delivers an intense yet lingering spiciness upon entry—reminiscent of baijiu, yet uniquely distinctive. A truly memorable first encounter! 3. Acavallos Añejo Tequila, Aged Mexican Tequila, Imported from Mexico, 750 ml Among tequilas, this is definitely one of the premium offerings—elegant packaging, rich and mellow flavor profile. Compared to other brands, it’s notably smoother, with delicate herbal notes that are utterly intoxicating. Absolutely delicious! After opening a bottle, the overall impression was outstanding.

Distributors collectively 'defect' from premium liquor brands: 'After twenty years in the business, I refuse to be a scapegoat anymore!'

Recently, China’s baijiu industry has undergone profound channel restructuring: a wave of seasoned distributors—many with over a decade, even two decades, of experience in premium baijiu markets—have terminated partnerships and withdrawn from agency systems of top-tier baijiu brands. Having severed long-standing ties with leading national brands, many distributors openly cite unsustainable operational pressures—including forced inventory accumulation, price inversion, and shrinking margins—as key reasons for departure. The traditional manufacturer-distributor cooperation model in the baijiu sector now faces unprecedented challenges. Industry data shows that since 2025, the number of distributors for several listed premium baijiu enterprises has continued to decline net. Some mid-tier premium brands lost over 500 distributors within a single year, with small- and medium-sized distributors exiting the network especially frequently. Mr. Li, a veteran liquor merchant with twenty years’ experience, summed up the current reality: “Back in the day, distributing premium baijiu was a reliably profitable business—but today, it’s all about inventory buildup and pressure. After slaving away all year, you’re more likely to end up in the red.” Unrestrained inventory dumping by manufacturers is the core driver behind distributor defections. During previous baijiu industry upswings, forcing distributors to stockpile goods to inflate sales figures and financial reports had long been an entrenched industry practice. To meet quarterly or annual sales targets, brand owners routinely ignore actual terminal consumption capacity—imposing excessively high sales quotas on distributors and demanding advance payments and bulk inventory purchases. Failure to meet targets results in penalties: forfeiture of year-end rebates, reduced allocation quotas, or even termination of distribution rights. Consequently, distributors are left with no choice but to accumulate unsold stock—tying up capital for extended periods while warehouses overflow with idle product.
