2023 LaoBanZhang

Lao Ban Zhang (LBZ), the king of Bulang, Menghai County, Xishuangbanna, with an altitude of approximately 1,750 meters. The liquid of this special variety has a slightly bitter taste but is rich in pectin, giving it a sweet, mellow flavor and a strong aftertaste, hence the phrase, “Ban Zhang is King”.
This is the true ancient tree LBZ puerh, featuring a much smoother and sweeter profile than what is commonly thought of LBZ taste, reference taste for real LBZ ancient tree Puerh.

The Chen YuanHao Guarantees

Chen YuanHao’s reputation is legendary, as one of the oldest and most respected producer of elite puerh you can really trust:

• Authenticity: your tea really comes from the area it says it’s from.
• Quality: real 100% pure ancient tree tea, not blended.
• Storage: This tea has been professionally stored in controlled environment for optimal aging.

Please note that most Puerh (even good ones) sold as “ancient tree”/gushu is at most 20-50% pure ancient tree (usually blended with big or small tree leaves). When Chen YuanHao declares a tea as “ancient tree” it means 100% pure, a grade almost never found for sale.

Also note that wrapper design can change slightly from year to year. The pictures of the leaves have been taken within 1 year of pressing and represent faithfully any years of production of this tea.
