Among the Moutai Zodiac series, the 2018 Year of the Dog edition is quite special – it was the first to use an RFID anti-counterfeiting chip, meaning the method of authentication is completely different from previous years. Its starry gray ceramic bottle, adorned with Ji Lianbin's "Auspicious Year of the Dog" artwork, is widely considered by collectors to be highly visually distinctive.

Authenticating Before Receipt – The RFID Method Unique to the Year of the Dog Edition

  1. RFID Chip Scan: The 2018 edition was the first Zodiac Moutai to adopt RFID anti-counterfeiting technology. By placing an official app or NFC-enabled phone near the bottle cap, you can read its unique anti-counterfeiting code. If it cannot be read or the code is abnormal, it can generally be ruled out as fake.

  2. Starry Gray Glaze Inspection: The starry gray ceramic of the Year of the Dog edition has unique sparkling particles visible under side lighting. Counterfeits usually use ordinary gray glaze and lack this three-dimensional texture. Ji Lianbin's "Auspicious Year of the Dog" pattern has clear lines; magnified photos can be compared to official images.

  3. Silver-Gray Metal Cap Seal: The original factory metal cap has smooth edges with no burrs; running a fingernail over the seam should feel smooth. If the sealing tape has not been removed, the text will be complete and continuous. Additionally, the logistics codes on the bottle and outer box must match.
