10-Year Aged Lao Banzhang Raw Pu-erh Tea

Lao Ban Zhang Ancient Tree Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake (100g)

Known as the legendary "King of Pu-erh Tea," Lao Ban Zhang is one of the most prestigious and sought-after tea origins in Yunnan. Nestled deep within the Bulang Mountains, this celebrated region is famous for producing powerful, complex, and highly collectible raw Pu-erh teas treasured by enthusiasts around the world.

This premium early-spring tea is crafted from carefully selected leaves harvested from century-old ancient tea trees growing in the heart of Lao Ban Zhang. Traditional sun-drying and stone-pressing techniques preserve the tea's authentic mountain character, allowing the true essence of this iconic terroir to shine through every infusion.

The tea opens with a rich aroma of wild mountain flowers, orchid notes, and subtle fruit undertones. Its bright golden liquor is clear, vibrant, and full of vitality. On the palate, Lao Ban Zhang reveals the bold character for which it is famous—deep, layered, and powerful, yet balanced by remarkable sweetness and an exceptionally long-lasting finish. The initial intensity quickly transforms into a lingering returning sweetness that coats the mouth and throat, creating the classic "Ban Zhang experience" prized by seasoned tea drinkers.

The thick, tightly rolled leaves and abundant silver buds reflect the quality of the ancient tree material. With excellent infusion endurance, the tea continues to reveal new layers of flavor through 15 or more brews, making every session a rewarding journey.

For generations, Lao Ban Zhang has been regarded as the benchmark for premium raw Pu-erh. Rich in naturally occurring tea polyphenols and antioxidants, it is appreciated not only for its legendary flavor but also for the sense of focus, balance, and mindful enjoyment it brings to daily life.

Whether enjoyed now, gifted to a fellow tea lover, or carefully aged for future appreciation, this Lao Ban Zhang Ancient Tree Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake represents the power, heritage, and timeless prestige of one of Yunnan's most iconic tea regions.
