Catalogue note:
The Sunflower brand was introduced by the Guizhou Moutai distillery for a brief period, from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s, either as a replacement for or alongside the Feitian (Flying Fairy) brand, primarily for production intended for export. Its limited period of use has made examples bearing the small-leaf Sunflower mark particularly rare; complete and intact original cases are now exceptionally difficult to find.

历史与收藏价值
• “葵花牌”由来：在20世纪60年代末至70年代中期，贵州茅台酒厂曾短暂推出“葵花牌”商标来取代或并行于“飞天牌”，主要用于出口销售。该商标使用时间较短，因此小叶葵花存世量稀缺，整箱原箱完整存世十分难得。
• 拍卖记录：
1.2021年6月，英国伦敦苏富比（Sotheby's）拍卖了一箱24瓶装的1974年“葵花牌”茅台，最终以约100万英镑的高价成交，创下了当时中国境外单批茅台酒的最高拍卖纪录。
2. Sotheby’s London 2022，拍卖了一箱24瓶装的1972年“葵花牌”茅台 成交价：937,500英镑。1.2021年6月，英国伦敦苏富比（Sotheby's）拍卖了一箱24瓶装的1974年“葵花牌”茅台，最终以约100万英镑的高价成交，创下了当时中国境外单批茅台酒的最高拍卖纪录。
