The Spirit of Chinese Business
In China, business relationships are built over the banquet table, and baijiu flows at the center of these vital gatherings. Understanding baijiu etiquette isn't just cultural appreciation—it's essential knowledge for anyone doing business in China. From the strategic art of toasting to the symbolism of gift-giving, baijiu serves as both social lubricant and trust-building ritual in professional settings.
Navigating the Banquet
At Chinese business dinners, the host traditionally selects and provides the baijiu—often Moutai for important occasions. The "ganbei" (干杯) toast carries weight: accepting the invitation to empty your glass shows respect and builds trust. Hierarchy matters; junior participants should toast seniors first, holding their glass lower as a sign of deference. Pace yourself strategically, as multiple rounds are expected. Gifting premium baijiu signals serious business intent—Moutai remains the gold standard for impressing partners and celebrating successful deals.
