The Aged Chenpi Tea Collection - Timeless Elegance, draws inspiration from the aging process of fine wines, where the passage of time enhances the flavor and value. Just as wine becomes smoother with age, Chenpi (aged tangerine peel) develops richer, more complex flavors as the years pass. To highlight this parallel, the packaging of this tea series integrates elements reminiscent of vintage wine culture.

The tea is carefully stored in a clear glass jar with an oak wood lid, echoing the oak barrels traditionally used in winemaking. This combination not only ensures an airtight seal, preserving the tea’s quality, but also adds an elegant touch that emphasizes its premium nature. The clear glass allows consumers to appreciate the natural color and texture of the Chenpi, making its quality visible at a glance.

Each jar features a label designed to resemble a vintage movie ticket, complete with details such as the tea’s name, year of production, and artisan information. The label’s subtle checkered background enhances its tactile appeal and visual identity. At the top of the label is a gold seal inspired by the wax seals used in medieval Europe, embossed with the brand’s slogan: “Eastern Aesthetic Living.” The labels are color-coded to reflect the tea’s age, with shades ranging from light to dark, representing ten, fifteen, and twenty years of aging, respectively.

The Chenpi is presented in a wooden gift box made from oak, designed to resemble a wine barrel, further emphasizing its value. The box’s natural wood grain and traditional Japanese-style binding convey an understated elegance, making it ideal for both gifting and collecting. Each set is accompanied by a unique collection number, ensuring authenticity and traceability.

This innovative packaging blends Eastern and Western design elements, elevating the traditional image of Chenpi to that of a collectible, luxurious product.
