millet wine
Millet wine () is a common wine in East and Southeast Asia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Millet Wine )〕 It is also the oldest wine in Taiwan and a traditional beverage of Taiwanese aborigines. It is often used in Harvest festival, as a signal of harvest.
==Cultural Background==
For aboriginal culture, millet wine is a cultural symbol.〔Lu Yi Lu, Stealing grain Myth, "Taiwan's Austronesian origins of the myth of millet seed" Japanese Southwestern University, "National On the occasion of cultural Set", (2007)〕 Millet wine is a key part of aboriginal rituals such as Millet Festival, Black Rice Festival, Harvest Festival and Dwarf Spiritual Sacrifice. Each aboriginal group in Taiwan has its own god or goddess dedicated to millet and their own name for millet wine. For example, the Atayal tribe call it “Qohozi” and the Puyuma tribe call it “Tinuerau”. Moreover, libation of millet wine is believed to bring good luck〔Ministry of Culture, ROC, "Millet Wine"〕 and aid in avoiding evil. Every aboriginal group has developed specific millet wine drinking rites. For instance, the Paiwan tribespeople will tread the ground before drinking millet wine to show their respect to the god in charge of the mountains. On the other hand, Puyuma tribespeople of Taitung County take bring fresh millet wine to the beach. Priests then chant prayers toward the direction of Orchid Island to present their gratitude for their harvest.
