Powerful, rich, and expressive. The classic Laobanzhang profile: dense structure, a bright bitterness at the beginning that quickly transitions to a deep sweetness (hui gan). Notes of wild honey, green herbs, dry wood, and light minerality. The finish is long, voluminous, and recurring.

📌 Aroma:
Fresh and intense: meadow grasses, green apple, floral nectar, light smoke, and mineral notes. As it warms, the sweetness and depth of old woods unfolds.

📌 Effect:
Powerful, invigorating, and focused. Clarifies the mind, provides energy, and inner focus. The classic "cha qi" of Lao Banzhang is confident and long, not for rushing.
