Having grown up without a barn, my first introduction to this particular
organoleptic distinction was in our seventh-grade production of "Midsummer
Night's Dream." Bottom has the relevant line: "I do smell all horse-****, at
which my nose is in great indignation." May we suppose that some wag slipped
a Pu-erh into the Bard's tea-caddy?
