drank Lao Cong Zi Ya by Norbu Tea
423 tasting notes

It’s been a long time since I have last brewed a cup of this tea, still one of my top 5, and vying for #1 only with Verdant’s Laoshan Black. It still smells of candied stone fruit, and tastes delightfully sweet, and fantastically invigorating. I have finished one pouch of this tea, and am halfway through another, and I’m eyeing my supply worriedly, since the wonderful Norbu Tea no longer stock it :(
I am in the midst of a flurry of university papers, so I had no time for a proper Gongfu session in over a month now (sob), but this tea still works wonderfully Western style.

Bio

An Israeli computer programmer with a passion for tea (mostly bought in yearly shopping sprees in the UK), particularly black, oolong and white. I don’t generally enjoy flavoured teas or herbal infusions, but if a tea sounds interesting and smells nice I’ll most definitely try it. I drink several cups of tea a day, usually one or two in the morning, another one after lunch and one or two in the evening. My favourite tea so far is Lao Cong Zi Ya from Norbu Tea, but I’m constantly trying new teas. Only in the past year have I branched into Pu’erh and non-roasted oolongs. Finding good tea in Israel is difficult, so I import most of my teas from yearly visits to London, or from online retailers. If you see something in my cupboard that sparks your interest and you would like to swap with me, then please message me. I’m almost always up for a swap.
