Premium vodka, Shanghai White is the product of a collaboration, the first of its kind between Diageo and Shui Jing Fang, producers of premium baijiu.

The bottle is adorned with cherry blossom flowers and 1930s Art Deco imagery of old Shanghai on the indented hexagonal water well shaped bottle bottom. This well pays tribute to the well of the legendary 14th century Shui Jing Fang distillery that is said to produced the most pristine water for brewing high quality spirit.
