Subtle word questions

#1. “used by” vs. from
A. "Made in the same venerated tradition used by the family distillery of Master Confucius", or
B. "Made in the same venerated tradition from the family distillery of Master Confucius,
Which one is better, A or B?
#2. “sip” vs. “taste”? Is sip sounds appropriate to a native speaker?
A. "Made in the same venerated tradition from the family distillery of Master Confucius, this spirit – once served only to emperors and mandarins – will take you on a voyage of discovery to 500 BCE for a unique taste of the culture, heritage, mystery and wisdom…" or
B. "Made in the same venerated tradition used by the family distillery of Master Confucius and once served only to emperors and mandarins, , this spirit of the Master will take you on a voyage of discovery to 500 BCE for a unique taste of the culture, heritage, mystery and wisdom…"
C. "Made in the same venerated tradition of Master Confucius' family distillery and once served only to emperors and mandarins, , this spirit of the Master will take you on a voyage of discovery to 500 BCE for a unique taste of the culture, heritage, mystery and wisdom…"
