The 2020 Year of the Rat Moutai features a blue-and-white porcelain bottle, a rare cool-toned design within the zodiac series. Paired with Chen Jialing's "Fortune Rat" artwork, its initial release coincided with the early stages of the pandemic, leading to tighter market supply than previous years. After six years of aging, the fruity aroma remains prominent, making it suitable for short to medium-term holding.

Year of the Rat Moutai Verification - Three Quick Steps to Identify Blue-and-White Porcelain Series

  1. Uniformity of blue-and-white glaze color: The blue-and-white of the 2020 Year of the Rat model is a rare cool tone in the zodiac series. The genuine glaze surface will show variations in depth under different lighting (similar to blue-and-white porcelain effect). Most counterfeits use a single blue color, lacking layers. Chen Jialing's "Fortune Rat" ink wash style lines should be natural and fluid.

  2. Batch characteristics during the pandemic: Year of the Rat Moutai was released in early 2020, coinciding with the pandemic. Some batches may have special logistics information on the outer box stickers. The spray code format differs slightly from 2019 (Year of the Pig) – the spacing between characters is slightly wider, a result of equipment upgrades during that period.

  3. Condition after six years of aging: Approximately six years since its release, it is in the mid-aging stage. The fruity aroma is still quite prominent, with a hint of floral notes. The liquid level should be above the shoulder and neck, and the decline should not exceed 1cm. The RFID function of the cap should still be readable.

2020 Year of the Rat Moutai Market Reference

For full, original, sealed cases with complete accessories, no bottle damage, and liquid level to the shoulder, buyers are willing to pay a premium of 25% or more. After six years of aging, the liquor is light-bodied with prominent fruity notes. Due to its relatively recent release, the supply of Year of the Rat Moutai is still ample in the market. However, a portion is opened and consumed each year, so the number of brand-new, sealed bottles in existence will continue to decrease.
