TeaBrat drank 2005 Ye Sheng Wild Tea Log by Norbu Tea

2816 tasting notes

I haven’t had this tea in a while, it’s been so long that I totally forgot what it was all about! I just went back to my old tasting note to find that my impressions are pretty much the same. This is a soft tea made from ya bao, it has notes of lemon and cream and is very gentle. I see Norbu doesn’t have this in stock anymore but they do have a 2004 ye sheng tea log that sounds kind of similar. I’m glad I revisited this again today. It’s really nice!

Oh that sounds beautiful! I would love to try it. I’m always down for Ya Bao and have never had it pressed before.

Bio

My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.

Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!

Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)

Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.

I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta

95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around

89-80 Pretty good, above average

79-70 Acceptable

69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it
