U+91A9 "醩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
醩
U+91A9 "醩" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character used in classical and literary contexts, primarily denoting "distiller's grains" or "sediment from brewing," such as the lees or dregs left after making wine or spirits. It is closely related to the more common character "糟" (zāo), which shares similar meanings including "rotten" or "waste," and is often found in historical texts or specialized discussions of traditional fermentation processes. As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs, it appears in the standard repertoire of East Asian scripts, though its usage is much rarer in modern everyday writing compared to its simplified or variant counterparts.
