Lao Ban Zhang 2016, aged Pu’er shengcha
USD 64.40 – USD 408.00
Renowned origin harvest by a small producer
Lao Ban Zhang is one of the, if not the most sought after origin for premium pu’er. Rather like pursuing a rare wine, people don’t expect a sweet or easy palatial experience but one with character and strength. The tea is known for its long lasting linger. Some refer to it as “cha qi”.
A really good one from the “old estate” costs a crazy fortune nowadays. Yet one from a good fringe area by a small workshop can be a lot more accessible. Let us know how you like this compared with other pu’ers.

2016 老班章 頭春青餅
Taste profile
Clean, refreshing and smooth aroma with a sweet, floral overtone. Distinct accent of raisin. Undertone of camphor and American ginseng. Crisp, malty body. Light sweetness counterbalanced with tints of astringency and the bitterness of the root Mongolian milkvetch ( aka huang qi, a herbal tonic ). Cooling aftertaste. Good hui gan.
