Thanks for inviting me to answer

The brewing technology of Maotai-flavor liquor is special, which is completely different from Luzhou-flavor liquor and Fen-flavor liquor. It is characterized by less volatile substances, higher acidity, mainly acetic acid and lactic acid, more phenolic compounds in Maotai-flavor liquor, scientific and reasonable alcohol concentration, and Maotai-flavor liquor is a green natural fermentation product.

These factors determine that Maotai-flavor liquor is the most suitable for Tibetan liquor. Other liquors have a certain age, but Maotai-flavor liquor has an industry knowledge that the older it is, the more fragrant it is!

Kweichow Moutai, as a model of China Maotai-flavor liquor, has been strengthened by its complicated technology, long production period and unique geographical environment.

the storage period of maotai liquor is under good preservation conditions (please refer to my question and answer or personal article to inquire about how to preserve maotai liquor), and there is no problem in decades. As for the collection value, is there anyone who knows that the value determines the price, and the price also reflects the value? Even if things are scarce, there are enough articles analyzed from a professional perspective, which can be Baidu.

not to mention much, at the Maofen Festival held by Maotai Group in Maotai Town, Guizhou Province, where Moutai is produced, the heavy program was that Maotai Distillery blended Maotai around 1975 with three bottles of Moutai bought back from collectors (rare treasures, the color of the wine has made the old drinkers drool), and the auction of Maotai was concluded, which can be said to fully reflect the basic principle that Maotai has always insisted on quality first.

From left to right are Maotai in 1958, Maotai in 1959 and Maotai in 196. It can be seen that the Maotai-flavor liquor has volatilized over the years, and this color has attracted the attention of many wine lovers!

Kweichow Moutai, the originator of Maotai-flavor liquor, is known as "national liquor" and is called "sweet juice" by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It won the gold medal at the Panama World Expo in 1915 and was used for state banquets in founding ceremony. At the five national evaluation receptions, Maotai won five gold medals in succession. The existence of Moutai not only affects Chinese people, but also is famous in the world. No matter the market value and brand value of Moutai, it is irreplaceable by any other liquor, and it is no exaggeration to be called the overlord of liquor industry.

As I said in my previous article, the most cost-effective wine in China is Maotai, because it has financial attributes and collection value. For example, if you collect a batch of Maotai, after a few years, you will sell half of it and the remaining half will cost almost nothing. Isn't it delicious to drink Maotai without spending money? Moutai has always occupied an important position in the hearts of Chinese people. Moderate drinking is not only good for the health, but also has a high collection value. It is indispensable for high-net-worth people, and it is also the carrier of business contacts and social ways.

Things are rare and precious. Without Maotai Town, which is 7.5 square kilometers, Moutai can't be produced. Maotai liquor is located in the core production area of Maotai Town, with a unique natural environment and thousands of years of brewing history, forming an indispensable and extremely rich microbial population. In fact, the fermentation process of liquor is mainly played by microorganisms, and microorganisms are the real winemakers. The brewing process of Maotai liquor is complicated. It adopts twice feeding, multiple fermentation and one production cycle every year. It insists on high-temperature koji making, high-temperature fermentation, high-temperature accumulation, high-temperature wine taking, long-term storage of basic wine, careful preparation and strict inspection of finished wine before packaging. Maotai liquor is not only low in output, but also deliberately "hungry marketing", which causes people to actively buy and collect a large number of new products every time they come out, resulting in the phenomenon that things are rare and expensive. Maotai Group is also very aware of this, so it is rare to see real Maotai liquor in the market.

Liquor is old and fragrant. As we all know, the liquor just produced is not good to drink, and it needs to be stored for a period of time. The lipid substances and acid substances in the liquor are slowly oxidized and reduced, and it takes several years or more to age. After aging, the aroma substances will come into play and produce a special flavor. The spicy taste in the liquor body is reduced, and the taste becomes soft, smooth and soft. Because Maotai-flavor liquor contains more than 2 kinds of trace components, the running-in speed between the trace components is relatively slow, and the time for liquor body balance is relatively long.

In recent decades, in previous wine auctions, the price of aged Maotai has hit record highs, with hundreds of thousands and millions of bottles of Maotai, which has made the vast number of drinkers see the appreciation potential and investment value of Maotai. Looking at the historical trend chart of Moutai price, it is not difficult to find that the price of Maotai has been steadily rising. What is lacking in today's society is not money, but what is lacking is the investment target.

The conditions of collecting Moutai liquor have a great influence on it, and the sealing is not strict. Improper environment will damage the taste and fragrance of Moutai liquor. Even if you store it for 2 or 3 years, it will not appreciate, and the liquor will not be mellow, because running wine will make it taste lighter, and the taste is like water. Direct sunlight can make the liquor produce miscellaneous flavor, and the odor will affect the quality. The best time to drink Moutai is about fifteen years. As long as it is well sealed, the wine body will not be exposed to harmful microorganisms from outside, even if it is kept for 5 or 8 years.

Question: How many years can Kweichow Moutai be stored?

a: as long as the bottle mouth is sealed, the wine will not run away, and the wine will stand in the shade to avoid high temperature, which can be stored for many years. However, because Maotai is made of pure solid, it can be stored for a long time, but it is best not to be too long. The organic flora in Maotai is most beneficial to human body for 5-1 years.

Question: Is Kweichow Moutai valuable for collection?

a: it's definitely worth collecting. even if we start collecting Moutai now, it's totally possible. Only before we start collecting, we need to know something about the history and culture of Moutai, and Tibetan wine lovers can study and collect according to their own economic conditions. Among them, finding suitable collection varieties for beginners should also be considered.

(1) Classification

In the classification of Moutai collections, we usually divide Moutai into four periods: the Cultural Revolution in the early days of the founding of New China, the reform and opening up, and the economic take-off. According to the trademark category, it can be classified as "five stars", "flying sky" and "sunflower"; There is also the classification according to special wine and commemorative wine. Such a systematic classified collection method is highly praised by many collectors. Of course, if we have a certain economic strength and rich knowledge of Tibetan wine, we still advocate collecting the varieties that have survived less.

(2) Value

As for which Moutai liquors have high collection value, "rare things are precious" is the law in the collection field. As a high-end investment, earthenware bottles and white porcelain bottles of Maotai liquor in 195s and 196s are still the first choice. With the passage of time, its rare surviving quantity and distant years will become more and more precious and its appreciation rate will be extremely high. In addition, some vintage wines are also collectible. As an investment in ordinary varieties, you can own one bottle or several bottles, such as ordinary Moutai in the 198s, and you can also follow the market trend to obtain value gains.

However, for Tibetan friends who collect Maotai commemorative wine, it should be noted that there are two categories of Maotai commemorative wine at present: one is the commemorative wine officially issued by Maotai Group to celebrate the prosperous times, such as the return of Hong Kong and Macao, and the anniversary of the National Day, and most of them are packaged in gift boxes with unique designs, each of which is noble and elegant and worth collecting; The other category is customized commemorative wines for major enterprises and institutions, such as the 7th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the 5th anniversary of the founding of the Great Hall of the People. Most of these maotai wines are packaged in ordinary maotai wine and added with relevant words. There are many varieties and categories, and it is difficult to collect them comprehensively.

(3) Conditions

The storage conditions of Maotai liquor are not as strict as that of red wine. Red wine must be stored in a specified temperature and humidity environment, and stored according to a certain posture. Because of its characteristics, China liquor does not need such harsh collection conditions. We ordinary collectors only need to find a dry, dark and far away from air conditioning place at home to store for a long time. When collecting, the bottle mouth can be sealed tightly with raw material tape to prevent the wine body from volatilizing, and it must be placed vertically, and it is forbidden to lie down. As a qualified collector, you can buy a cellar-style wine cabinet for storage, and the environment of constant temperature and humidity can protect the collected wine more scientifically.

(4) Note

Besides liquor itself, liquor collection should pay more attention to its integrity. Bottle, label, bottle mouth packaging and packaging design are all part of the collection value of Moutai. No matter how good the content of a bottle of wine is, poor appearance, packaging and sealing will also make its value plummet. A bottle of Moutai that has not been excessively volatilized and has a good appearance and appearance can get huge economic returns outside the collection. The status and social influence of Kweichow Moutai, as well as its future collection value and appreciation potential, benefited from the cordial care of the national leaders of that year. To be sure, aged Moutai is a rare and unrepeatable consumer product. Nowadays, Moutai is in a stage of collection sublimation, and the future appreciation speed and space are still relatively large, and the capital share is relatively small. The collection and investment of Maotai liquor can not only achieve certain economic benefits, but also help us to understand and inherit the splendor and brilliance of China's 5,-year-old culture.

Kweichow Moutai, known as China national wine, is rich in maotai flavor and the originator of maotai-flavor liquor in China. But no one who likes drinking doesn't like drinking Maotai, and who is willing to drink authentic, high-end and old Maotai?

maotai can be stored for several years, with no specific time and no shelf life. If stored properly, it will last for hundreds of years. 1. If the bottle cap is intact (opened and tightened), apply melted wax, which must be applied to the bottle cap and bottle mouth, but the protective film of the plastic cap is not easy to recover. 2. You can directly wrap the bottle cap with raw material tape (used for wrapping triangle valve), and wrap it tightly and more. 3. Then wrap the whole bottle with protective film. 4. Storage conditions: ventilation, room temperature at 313 degrees, no exposure.

maotai is the king of wine, which is valuable for collection. But it mainly depends on the production age and quality. The longer the age, the higher the value and the higher the high-end value of quality. Maotai in the last 3 years is worth collecting. Feitian Maotai, Wuxing Maotai and various commemorative Maotai are worth collecting. It's just that the age is not long and there is not much room for appreciation.

this is a wine from the 193s, and it was worth 2.6 million yuan in 216.

This is Huamao in 193s, and it was worth 1.15 million yuan in 216.

besides maotai, what wine is worth collecting? Personally, I think it is appropriate for products with high brand awareness and rare circulation. In addition, it refers to the production process, such as pure grain brewing, the alcohol degree is above 5 degrees, and the longer the storage time, the more mellow and delicious the Maotai-flavor liquor. But this does not mean that the longer all liquor is stored, the better. After 5 years, the taste of ordinary-flavor liquor will become weak and the flavor will weaken; Only maotai-flavor aged wine is of high quality, and the longer it takes, the more mellow it becomes. However, whether Luzhou-flavor liquor stored for many years is a good wine is inconclusive and controversial. Low-alcohol liquor, especially liquor with a temperature below 32 degrees, will easily change its performance if it is stored for a long time. After a long time, it will lose its inherent characteristics. In this regard, the state has strict regulations, requiring drinks and wines with an ethanol content of less than 1% to be marked with a shelf life.

In addition, the saying that "the older the wine, the more fragrant it is" refers to the wine stored in a sealed barrel, and the taste of the wine in ordinary bottles will fade after a long time. After a long period of storage, the quality of liquor will become moist and mellow. Therefore, some people think that the older the liquor, the better. Actually, not really. Although liquor has no shelf life, during the storage of liquor, esters in liquor will react with organic acids to produce a variety of ester substances, and all kinds of esters have various special aromas. Because the esterification reaction in wine is quite slow, high-quality wine generally needs to be stored for three or four years, and if it is maotai-flavor liquor, it can even reach thirty years or longer. Single, the esterification reaction will tend to be balanced to a certain extent, and it will stop. If it continues to be stored, it will reduce the alcohol content, weaken the wine taste and increase the volatilization loss. Especially, at present, some middle-grade liquors and fend-off liquors are added with flavoring agents in the blending process, and such liquors can not be stored for a long time. Otherwise, the wine will become bitter and tasteless. Therefore, if it is purely for drinking, even if Moutai is stored for a proper time, it is not as old as possible.

finally, I want to say that from the perspective of investment, the collection pays more attention to "betting" and buys the products with the greatest increase in the future at the most affordable price. Therefore, I recommend the wine collected by the Maotai-flavor Museum. The only wine in the market with limited bottles is the year of production. In 217, there were 2,17 brothers and sisters in 217: the collection of sauce wine was a great success, and the ancient rhyme was a new chapter, a group of people, for a lifetime.

wine is for drinking, but famous wine is another matter, especially maotai.

for maotai, drinking it only reflects its practical value, and besides, it also has collection value. Because Moutai is a scarce product, the market supply is limited. Over the years, its price has risen more and fallen less, and its value preservation is certain, and there is also a lot of room for appreciation.

Moreover, Maotai has obvious technological characteristics, world-famous brand and high cultural taste, and occupies a distinguished position in the liquor industry. The key is that the more aged Maotai-flavor liquor is, the higher its quality is.

Maotai-flavor wine pays attention to an aging time. The longer the aging time, the more mature it is, and the higher its value will be. Because of the characteristics of maotai liquor, the year is always an important criterion to measure the collection value. But the time is too long, for example, 5 or 8 years of wine can only be collected and can't be drunk directly. If you have to drink it, you must re-tune it.

if it is for self-drinking, it is recommended to keep it for no more than five years under suitable storage conditions.

if it is used as a souvenir, of course, the longer the better. In 29, Chi Zhiliang, a Moutai collector in Linyi, Shandong Province, bought a bottle of Moutai produced in 1954 at a high price of 1.5 million yuan. According to the five-year storage of Maotai, this bottle of wine should be brewed in 1949.

Therefore, the collection price of Moutai increases with the increase of years, and the price is not capped. Of course, under suitable conditions. There are many ways to store Moutai liquor. Generally, bottled Moutai liquor should be dry, clean, bright and ventilated.
