Black Fruits Pai Mu Tan from Grandpa's Cheese Barn

The DJBooth drank Black Fruits Pai Mu Tan by Grandpa's Cheese Barn

So my buddy at work who I usually share a daily cuppa with told me about Grandpa’s Cheese Barn, and that his wife picked this one up when they visited and didn’t like it. So he brought this one in to share. So of course I asked how she had brewed it since in my own experience white tea can go awry if you don’t pay attention to the time and temp. The dry leaf smells really good. Almost like Engelskuss (Angel’s Kiss) by Cafe-Contor that mercuryhime shared with me which my daughter claimed to be cotton candy tea. It’s really good it has a nice berry-ish flavor. The tea base itself is nice and light. So of course I want to check this place out since it’s maybe an hour drive.

Ha ha yeah I’ve never been there but it exists and a lot of people I know on facebook were talking about it over the weekend.

It scares me that I’ve heard of the Cheese Barn before . . .

Ha! We love this one, it’s the one we picked up on our way down to Tennessee! Their tea selection was almost scary!

So did you ever find out if she had scorched it or not? I suspect that one would have gone down well in this house. Anything with black fruit generally does.

Interesting, been their twice, but never ventured into the other food and gift area where I imagine their tea would be. Good cheese though.
