“文峰塔”牌一级酱油是安阳市酿造厂的优质产品。与彰德府陈醋齐名，因其质高味佳，味色具美，深受广大消费者欢迎。一级酱油（原叫顶油），创始于清光绪年间，由百年老店锦泰酱园所酿制。锦泰酱园在悠久历史中，所生产的京广果品、酱制品、调味品均以其质地优良、风味独特而闻名遐迩。尤其燎花、陈醋、一级酱油在彰德府首屈一指，在冀南、鲁西、晋东南等地享有盛誉。为了在竞争中求生存，求发展，锦泰酱园多以重金在外地聘请名师从事各类产品的制作。顶油就是由许昌名师世代领班制作的（现在叫一级酱油）。酿制顶油工艺复杂，技术难度大，过去以手工操作，产量有限。1956年以后，充分发挥老师傅的技术专长，有效的继承了传统、又不断采用新技术，更新设备，逐步形成了一套符合科学要求的新工艺，生产出了“文峰塔牌”一级酱油。一级酱油不但保持了原顶油的各种风味特色，且在理化成分上更符合科学要求，卫生质量也达到了部颁标准。产量大幅度上升，1982年，年产量5万斤；1984年，猛增到40万斤。1981年后在省内同类产品评比中，数次夺标；1982年、1985年，又两度被商业部命名为“优质产品”。
