The Collection

Each pour in our house is hand-verified, vintage-confirmed, and accompanied by a certificate of provenance. We handle perhaps a hundred bottles a month — never more.

A bottle is only as
true as its journey.

Counterfeit Moutai outsells the real thing on the open market. We refuse the open market.

i

Direct from the source

Distilleries, family cellars, and verified single owners. Never auction-house secondaries we cannot trace.

ii

Triple-seal authentication

Each bottle is verified against the producer's archive, photographed under UV, and sealed with a numbered house wax before dispatch.

iii

A certificate, by hand

Every order ships with a hand-numbered provenance card, signed by the house cellar master. Frame it. It is part of the story.

The House of Moutai

For seven hundred years, the village of Maotai has bottled its red sorghum into something that tastes, somehow, like a place. We carry only the years that taste like memory.

№ 047 — Hero Pour

Moutai Feitian
1988 Vintage

Single-bottle reserve. One of seventeen in private hands.

A pre-merger bottling from the original Maotai distillery, sealed under cellophane the week of the Seoul Olympics. Aged thirty-six years in a Guizhou family cellar before passing into our care. Sauce-aroma at its most patient — soy, dried plum, leather, honey, and a finish that holds for ten minutes after the glass is empty.

The Edit from Japan

Hibiki, Yamazaki, Hakushu, Yoichi, Karuizawa. The houses that taught the world a single malt could whisper. We carry only the years that still do.

№ 062 — House Selection

Hibiki 21
Years Old

A vatting of malts aged in mizunara, sherry, and American white oak.

The crown of Suntory's blending art. Stone fruit, sandalwood, a slow ribbon of smoke that arrives only when the glass is half empty. Decanted in the company's faceted twenty-four-sided bottle — one face for each hour of the day, one hour for each pour. Increasingly rare since Suntory paused production in 2018.

The Private Cellar

A standing arrangement for collectors who prefer the rarities to find them. Three tiers, by quiet introduction.

№ i

First refusal

Cellar masters call you before the public listing. Most rare bottles are gone before the page renders.

№ ii

Provenance archive

A private, lifetime record of every bottle you have purchased — for insurance, estate, or simple pride.

№ iii

House tastings

Annual closed tastings in Hong Kong, Tokyo, and Singapore. Twelve seats. By the cellar master's hand.

How to read the seal of a 1988 Moutai

Three details separate a genuine pre-merger bottling from the seventy percent of fakes circulating in Asia. Not all are visible to the eye.

Mizunara, the wood that taught Japan to wait

Why a single Japanese oak species turns honest barley into something the Scots, gracious as ever, simply concede they cannot make.

A short defense of the unopened bottle

Some pours are meant to be drunk. Some are meant to outlive their owners. We make the case for both, and the geometry between them.
