Introduction to the oil pressing mill: The "Three Tujia Mills" are the brewing mill, the oil pressing mill and the water mill. The brewery uses spring water from Yamu Mountain and brews Tujia rice wine using original methods. It is sweet and fragrant, and you will have endless aftertaste after drinking it. In the oil pressing mill, many tourists shouted chants and pushed the wooden sticks together to hit the wedge of the oil barrel. With the sound of "crunching", drops of vegetable oil began to flow down the bamboo tube and fell into the wooden barrel. In the room The fragrance of the oil immediately lingered outside the room, and the tourists looked at the fruits of their labor and all smiled with joy. The water mill can be said to represent the wisdom of the Tujia ancestors. There is no need to consume electricity or oil. The items to be milled are poured into the mill trough, and the water gate outside the mill is opened. The momentum generated by the flowing water drives the stone mill to rotate, and the rice can be ground into rice. Or grind dried chilies into powder.
