drank Jingmai Sheng Pu-erh from Ancient Tea Tree 2013 First Spring by WymmTea
1271 tasting notes

I quite enjoyed this sheng – thought I am partial to jing mai raw pu’er. This one is full of orchid notes with a powerfully lingering orchid aftertaste. There is a bit of peachy apricot (probably from the floral), thick body and a nice sweetness. There is a bit of dryness, but still easy to enjoy.

Read your blog too Oolong Owl, thanks alot for the detailed review:)
We saw you had some trouble figuring out which tea was which because of the packaging. That was actually the ‘mystery’ concept we were trying out. Don’t worry, future orders will have the names marked on the packaging.

Bio

I’m a tea blogger – The Oolong Owl
www.OolongOwl.com – I do tea reviews, obsessively photograph teas with mischievous crocheted Owls and get tea drunk. I am also a crochet and knitting designer at Awkward Soul Designs.

To contact me for reviews, check out details at OolongOwl.com/about or email me at [email protected]

I was raised on floral oolongs and green teas, mostly “beauty” teas. Early on as a kid, I can guzzle an entire pot of tea (or two) at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant.
These days I like adventurous and interesting tea blends. I’m fearless in trying new teas! I’m into oolong, pu’erh, white, green, black, guayusa, mate and herbals. I’m not into red rooibos but I keep buying it anyway.

The tea brand that got me started into loose leaf teas was DAVIDsTea. I used to live in Vancouver Canada and had access to their shop, however that is now limited since I moved to southern California.

However, the perks of living in the US is ultra cheap, fast shipping! Since then, my tea stash insanely expanded.

Other stuff I’m into that sneaks into my tea notes: Brazilian jiu-jitsu, metal music, drawing, painting, cooking, photography and nail polish.

BTW, my Steepster cupboard is not even close to accurate and I track my teas on a spreadsheet. Last update 573 Teas – August 2015.
