Black Raspberry Ice Cream from Kimball Farm,
Carlisle MA
Thinking
back to the 1970s when Bates
Farm was at the current Kimball Farm location in Carlisle, Mass., I
remember the rides from Arlington in my dad's Ford LTD station wagon,
the windows down and the crickets chirping, WRKO 680 AM playing those
great top 40 songs that actually had melody and structure, the big
country sky opening up to stars out at night, and... eating delicious
black
raspberry ice cream on the station wagon tailgate. Bates Farm made a
version that tasted like it was
just-made-on-the-farm with that thick creamy milky flavor and a
just-right level of black raspberry taste. Sometimes, i almost expected
a cow to take my order and black raspberry plants to be spilling out of
the order window -- that's how fresh the ice cream tasted. Bates Farm is long gone, but the
seasonal Kimball
Farm ice cream stand has actually made a great thing better with its
own black
raspberry ice cream. The Bates qualities remain, but Kimball has upped
the consistency so that the black raspberry flavor does not vary from
visit to visit. Additionally, the small size -- what you see above --
would be considered large at many other ice cream stands. If you love black raspberry ice cream,
Kimball Farm makes the best on the planet as far as my summer heart,
soul and taste buds are concerned. Thanks, Kimball Farm, for pleasing
us black raspberry ice cream fans! Kimball
