When it comes to China liquor brands, Maotai is the first reaction of both China people and foreigners. There is no denying that Maotai has become a representative of China culture and has gone global. However, there are many kinds of sub-brands of Maotai, such as Feitian Maotai, Wuxing Maotai, moutai prince Liquor, Maotai Welcome Liquor, and so on. Even people born and raised in China can hardly tell the difference between them. So, what are the similarities and differences between them? Brother Xiao Jiu will analyze it for you today!

maotai liquor, with its clear and transparent color, rich fragrance, soft and soft mouth, crisp and sweet taste and lasting fragrance, is called "maoxiang" by people, which is the most perfect model of maotai-flavor liquor style in China. Feitian Maotai, Wuxing Maotai, moutai prince Liquor and Maotai Yingbin Liquor all come from Guizhou Maotai Liquor Co., Ltd., and they use the same brewing technology, have the same flavor (maotai flavor) and the same degree. So what are the specific differences between these wines?

Feitian and Wuxing are the main products of Maotai Liquor Co., Ltd., and they are also commonly referred to as Maotai Liquor. Feitian is export-oriented, and Wuxing is domestic-oriented, but both can be seen in the domestic market. Both kinds of wine are brewed according to the production process of Moutai, which is produced for one year and stored for four years. The quality of the wine is exactly the same, only the difference between the trademark and the packaging. In addition, there is no standard wine glass for five-star flying, and the price is generally 1 yuan cheaper.

Besides Feitian and Wuxing, the main products of Maotai Liquor Co., Ltd. also include Zodiac commemorative wine and other themed wines (such as Jackie Chan wine), and the high-end products generally include vintage wines of 15 years, 3 years, 5 years and 8 years.

moutai prince wine belongs to Maotai series produced by Maotai Liquor Co., Ltd.. Belongs to the company's mid-range products. Compared with Feitian Maotai and Wuxing Maotai, although the production process is relatively simple, the quality of moutai prince liquor is far higher than that of other brands with the same price or even a higher grade. Its high-end version is called Jiangmen Classic, and its price and wine quality will be better.

Maotai welcome wine, also known as ration wine in the mouth of drinkers, is a low-grade product of Maotai Distillery. It is brewed by the traditional technology of Maotai Distillery, and its taste is slightly worse than that of Prince, but its cost performance is super high.

Brother Xiao Jiu will help you to better analyze the differences between these wines:

In terms of quality, Maotai liquor is better, and moutai prince liquor is better than Maotai liquor.

Different product positioning:

Maotai liquor is a high-end product developed by Maotai liquor manufacturers for high-end people, while moutai prince liquor is a high-end product developed by manufacturers for high-end people, and Maotai welcome wine is a low-end product developed by manufacturers for mass people.

The base wine year is different:

The base wine year of Maotai is 5 years, that of moutai prince is 3 years, and that of Maotai Yingbin is 2 years.

Moutai is Khun Sa wine, while Prince and Yingbin are Fansha wine or Diaocao wine. In fact, the welcome wine is brewed by the distiller's grains after Maotai took the wine seven times plus new grain. It is to brew the distiller's grains of Maotai before brewing the welcome. So don't equate prince, welcome guest and Maotai.

The difference between moutai prince and Yingbin is:

The aging time is different, but the prince time is longer! The blending ratio is different, and the proportion of different batches and different wine ages used in prince wine is more complicated. In popular terms, there are more good wines and aged wines used for blending in prince wine.

the taste is ok, and the price/performance ratio of the wine at the same price is quite high. Maotai welcomes guests with scraps from Maotai, which is naturally not as good as Prince's, and there is also a gap in price. Ordinary princes are better than welcoming guests. They are not brewed with distiller's grains, and the technology is closer to Maotai. They are all entry-level wines with maotai flavor. If you like to drink, buy some and drink it yourself. There is no point in collecting it.
