Distributor reports custom liquor containing sodium cyclamate; company denies and accepts investigation
In 2019, a distributor reported that a custom Jiugui Liquor product in its possession contained sodium cyclamate, and regulators accepted the related issue. The company denied purchasing or adding sodium cyclamate, saying the product was compliant when it left the factory, and the two sides had a prior contract dispute. Subsequent official special spot checks of 30 batches of Jiugui Liquor circulating on the market found no sodium cyclamate; the report concerning the distributor's custom liquor is not to be confused with market products at the time.

Plasticizer detected in liquor and products removed from shelves; company apologizes and explains migration source
In 2012, quality supervision authorities confirmed that plasticizer was detected in samples of Jiugui Liquor, and multiple supermarkets removed the products from shelves. The company apologized and explained that the substance may have migrated through contact with packaging during transfer, denying intentional addition. This entry concerns the testing incident that year and is separate from the 2019 distributor report about sodium cyclamate.
