U+917B "酻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+917B "酻" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically obscure Chinese character, primarily used in ancient texts rather than modern language. Its component parts suggest a connection to fermentation or brewing, as it combines the radical for "wine" or "alcohol" (酉) with a phonetic element, and it has been interpreted in some classical dictionaries as referring to a type of strong liquor or the process of distilling spirits. Due to its infrequent use, the character is often considered a variant or specialized term, and it is not commonly found in contemporary Chinese writing, appearing mostly in historical or philological studies of early Chinese liquor terminology.
