«Windsor Tarras.” “Barabar” was a popular imported
red wine, now better known by its rightful name, Barbera. It was the specialty
of Thomas Tomkins, who sold it at Lloyd's Coffee-House on Lombard Street,
as well as an anonymous merchant who sold at the Black Lion and promised a
brew “neat, deep, fresh, and strong, no Bar-a-Bar in England so good.” Not all
shared his enthusiasm, however:
- What planet distracts thee, what damnable Star,
- To dash honest Bourdeaux with vile Barabar?
- Why shou'd innocent Claret be murder’d by Port?
- Thou'lt surely be sentenced in Bacchus’ Court.
- (T. Browne, Works in Prose and Verse 3: 107.)
