Fan Yang's "Rooster Announcing the Dawn" makes this vintage particularly popular for gifting. Before selling, we recommend you check the following five points yourself to ensure a more accurate quote from us.
Year of the Rooster Moutai Inspection Checklist – Pearlescent White is Most Susceptible to Moisture Discoloration
Difficulty of preserving the white box: The pearlescent white box of the Rooster vintage is the most prone to "showing its age" in the zodiac series. Any water stains, fingerprints, or yellow spots are immediately visible. The original product's white color should be uniform without color variation; those that have been exposed to moisture will show wave-like undulations. Pay particular attention to the bottom and corners of the box upon receipt.
Verification of color usage in Fan Yang's "Rooster Announcing the Dawn": The red of the rooster's comb in the bottle design is a specially blended cinnabar color, with high saturation but not dazzling. A common problem with fakes is that the red is too orange or too dark. The blue-green gradient in the rooster's tail should be continuous and natural.
Luster of the gold and white lid: The dividing line between the gold top and the white body of the lid should be straight and clear. After 9 years of aging in 2017, the gold part may have very slight oxidation (appearing darker), but there should be no green rust.
Liquor development stage: For a 9-year-aged sauce-aroma Moutai, the fruity aroma begins to transform into a honey aroma. Swirling the bottle should show a "wine leg" effect. A liquid level at the shoulder/neck is normal.
Batch traceability: The Year of the Rooster vintage is particularly popular for gifting ("great auspiciousness" connotation), so there is a relatively abundant circulation in the market, but at the same time, the proportion of fakes is also high. Triple code verification + UV light test provides a more reliable double check.
