Moutai Flying Fairy is made on the base of quality sorghum, organic wheat and water. From material feeding, each bottle of Moutai is steam for nine times, fermented for eight times, and distilled seven times so that the spirit is as pure as possible. After being produced, the liquor is classified and stored, blended and preserved in cellars, and finally packaged to enter the market. The entire production process takes five years. This long aging period makes every drop of Moutai more fragrant, softer and more delicate.

The taste of Kweichow Moutai is no way comparable to any European spirits. Multifaceted in taste, Moutai offers perfect harmony with a host of various delicate flavours. Moutai's sauce fragrance is a complex aroma formed in natural fermentation. It can be said that the aromatic components of this sauce fragrance are the most complicated in the world's alcoholic beverages, and remain a mystery today. When drinking Moutai, from light to deep smell, people can smell the aromas of flower, grass, fruit, sweetness and dried plant. It is these substances with different aroma characteristics that form Moutai's complicated aroma characteristics.
