Management team introduction



General Manager

Jackie Liu



From starting as a retail dealer in 1989 to transitioning into an import agent in 1995, Mr. Liu has devoted over 30 years to the wine and spirits industry. Throughout this time, he has extensively explored major wine, whisky, and brandy production regions worldwide, tirelessly seeking products that offer exceptional quality and value for money to introduce to Taiwan.
In particular, Mr. Liu has progressively introduced various types of Scotch Whisky, encompassing diverse distilleries, years, and a broad range of alcohol levels. Additionally, various flavored casks with flexible packaging and specifications are available. Each bottle undoubtedly represents a top-tier product and embodies "the best choice" for customers.
Mr. Liu finds the wine and spirits industry ever-evolving and captivating. Recognizing its dynamic nature, he understands that standing still is akin to moving backward. Despite his extensive experience, Mr. Liu continues to diligently acquire new knowledge, extensively reading related literature, and actively participating in international wine and spirits exhibitions worldwide. Lifelong learning is the ethos—let's encourage each other!
In January 2010, Mr. Liu received an official document and invitation letter from across the ocean, marking his official induction as a lifetime member of "The Keepers of The Quaich," the highest honor in the Scotch whisky industry. While filled with happiness and excitement, he remains cautious and aware that this honor brings greater responsibilities. Yet, Mr. Liu views it as a significant impetus for growth, steadfastly adhering to his distinctive style and continuing to offer consumers superior products and services.
Grateful for the support and affirmation of friends, Mr. Liu firmly believes that 99 Bottles sells not just alcoholic drinks but quality, professionalism, trust, and responsibility. His commitment is unwavering, focusing on the pursuit of service excellence.
