Distinguishing genuine from fake Moutai: Paying attention to details

Authenticating genuine Moutai liquor is far more complex than simply looking at it. Genuine Moutai is meticulously crafted in terms of production processes, packaging materials, and anti-counterfeiting technologies. Here are some key points to help you be more confident in your choice of Moutai:

• Examine the packaging: Genuine Moutai packaging features exquisite printing, clear fonts, and saturated colors. Pay special attention to the details of the bottle label, back label, and bottle cap, including whether the anti-counterfeiting code, production batch, and bottling date are complete and clear. Early Moutai packaging also has some unique characteristics of its era; these are key points for identification.
• Examine the bottle cap and spray code: Moutai bottle caps typically feature a special design, such as a "five-star" or "flying fairy" logo, and rotate smoothly while maintaining an excellent seal. The spray code on the cap is clear, neatly arranged, and difficult to wipe off. The font and position of the spray code may vary between different years of Moutai, requiring some experience to identify.
• Examine the liquor: Under bright light, observe the liquor. Genuine Moutai should have a clear, transparent liquid without any suspended matter or sediment. As it ages, the liquor will gradually turn yellow, and may even have a slight greenish hue. However, please note that you should not open the bottle to taste it casually, as the value of the liquor will be greatly reduced once opened.
• Listen to the sound (gently shake the bottle): Gently shake the bottle of Moutai. Genuine Moutai will produce fine bubbles after being shaken, and these bubbles will disappear relatively slowly. This is related to its unique body structure.

The Art of Collecting Moutai: How to Make Your Collection More Valuable?

Besides distinguishing genuine from counterfeit, proper collection methods can also double the value of your Moutai liquor. Here are some practical collection tips:

• Constant temperature and humidity: Moutai liquor is most susceptible to large fluctuations in temperature and humidity. The ideal storage environment should be maintained at a constant temperature (about 12-18°C) and constant humidity (about 70-75%).
• Avoid light: Direct sunlight will accelerate alcohol evaporation and affect the quality of the liquor. It is recommended to store Moutai liquor in a dark, cool environment, such as a wine cabinet or a professional storage room.
• Lay flat or tilt: In order to keep the cork moist and prevent air from entering the bottle and oxidizing the liquor, it is best to lay Moutai liquor flat or tilt the bottle opening slightly.
