About Zhang Gong Lao Jiu 1975 Baijiu Packaging
Zhang Gong Lao Jiu 1975 is packaging designed for a Chinese liquor. The overall form takes inspiration from the century-old locust trees that grow on the distillery grounds. The outer box is made of eco-friendly pulp, and the bark texture is formed by embossing instead of ink printing. The bottle is fired with Chinese white glaze, and kiln transformation creates natural patterns in some areas. The bottle surface recalls the worn texture of old fermentation pits. The package measures 125 by 125 by 290 millimeters.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- It carries forward four millennia of traditional brewing techniques, supported by unique resources including century-old fermentation pits and maturation vats. The distillery grounds feature a grove of hundred-year-old locust trees, whose blossoms are skillfully incorporated into the fermentation process through a distinctive "locust blossom in fermentation" technique. This imparts a unique aromatic profile and an exceptionally smooth, mellow character to the liquor. The exterior packaging incorporates the textured appearance of locust tree bark, while the bottle design echoes the weathered texture of ancient fermentation pits, presenting a rustic yet sophisticated aesthetic.

- Inspiration
- The packaging's overall form draws inspiration from century-old locust trees, translating the textured bark and marks of time into a visual language of design. By showcasing naturally accumulated textures, it interprets the slow maturation of aged liquor—each mark embodies the formation of flavor, each sedimentation contributes to the liquor's depth. This is the art of nature, crafted by time.
