Speaking of Kweichow Moutai, many people might immediately think of “Feitien Moutai (Moutai Flying Fairy)” with a red ribbon, red cap and white glass bottle with a red label. Actually, “Moutai Flying Fairy” is not the only product line of Kweichow Moutai that worth being collecting. For example, Commemorative Moutai” refers to Moutai liquor that is specially produces to celebrate or commemorate certain big events or people, the bottle design of each Commemorative Liquor is inspired by the local culture and the event time, unique and aesthetic. “Moutai Chinese Zodiac Animal Liquor” is a collection launched every year based on each year’s corresponding Chinese zodiac animal, like “Moutai for the Year of the Rat”, “Moutai for the Year of the Pig”. Every year, renowned masters of traditional Chinese paintings will be invited to design the back label of the bottle based on interesting background stories about the specific zodiac animal, bringing out good blessings. “Moutai Aged Liquor” is produced with vintage Moutai Liquor as basic liquor and blended in accordance with the standard of 15-year-old liquor, 30-year-old liquor, 50-year-old liquor and 80-year-old liquor so people are able to taste the mellowness of the aged liquor.

“When a thing is rare, it becomes precious.” Special bottle materials usually indicate higher collection value as well. From the commemorative significance, cultural meaning, aesthetics to the bottle materials and aged aroma, different lines of Kweichow Moutai liquor have their own profundity and reserve value. As Salvador Dali once said, “the connoisseur does not drink wine but tastes of its secrets”, we collect Moutai not only for its value as a commodity, but also for the connotation, stories and sense of the times embedded.
