History Surrounding the Tuba

The Mouldy Tuba has been passed down for four generations. The current owner, Jameson Blackstone, has made it his life ambition to create a venue for all of Eorzeans to rest, unwind and get their second wind before venturing out to save the world.The Mouldy Tuba is known for its Blackstone Family Mead as well as the seasonal favorite of Blackstone Family Dodos. Whether to keep to ride or serve at the family dinner table, Blackstone Family Dodos carry a legacy near and far.

Blackstone Family Farms

The Mouldy Tuba gets many of its delicious ingredients, produce and meats from the Blackstone Family Farms. Jameson's uncle, Tiberious Blackstone, was a military man in his younger days. Upon retirement, he wanted the peaceful life and did not want to take on the family legacy of the Mouldy Tuba. Instead, he created a small farm out in Cederwood where he raises dodos (for riding or eating) as well as other farm crops.During their spare time, Jameson and Zin will visit the farm and help take care of the dodos. Zin has a garden by the farmstead where she grows wild herbs and flowers, in which one day she would like to make teas and spices for Eorzea to enjoy.

Patches the Dodo

Upon visiting the Tuba, you may see a little dodo running around. That is Master Blackstone's little friend, Patches. Jameson discovered Patches when he was tending dodos at the Blackstone Family Farm. There was a new brood of dodos running around in a small bin. He noticed one dodo with googly eyes. Whenever it would try to walk, it would take a few steps then fall down flat. Jameson felt bad for the little one and made it his mission to take care of him. Patches is now doing much better than he was in his baby days. He may never learn how to fly but he is now and forever will be the mascot of The Mouldy Tuba.

Mouldy Tuba Seasonal Drink Special: Sparkling Watermelon Punch

Mo ordered an absolute pile of watermelons. And it’s a recurring order. It is interesting though, when you cut them in half, it looks kinda like a bowl. Well, a bowl is like a cup in many ways, so Yuni decided to drinkify it. She took the watermelon guts, blended it up with some mint, and poured it back into the now empty and lonely shell, while adding a little vodka, simple syrup, lime juice, and a dash of sparkling wine. A few ice cubes later and next thing we knew our bar-bunn was sitting on the beach a watermelon shell in her hand (and four empties on the sand next to her).

Watermelon Old Fashioned

Mo made me do this. Don’t get me wrong, I am not complaining. Well, I was complaining. But not about this! Yuni (the “I” here) ran out of simple syrup, and rather just take 30 seconds and make more she sat and grumped. So our ever-helpful cook (and bard, and many other things…) just shook his head and made some himself. Only being a smartass he made it with watermelon water (smoosh a watermelon and strain out the solid bits, fyi) and didn’t tell bar-bunn. So, she just made an old fashioned with that (I’m not very observant, so sue me). It was good. So now it’s on the menu. You’re welcome!10,000 gil

Blackstone Family Mead

Made onsite by the owner using the secret Blackstone Family Recipe. The good stuff, hands down.

Mel-jito

With so much large fruit floating around, Yunica started dabbling. She made a mojito (you know, lime juice, mint, sugar, rum, bubbles) and took some of that smooshed up watermelon from the punch she tried the day before and added it in! But with some agave nectar instead of her usual simple syrup, to make it fancy and confuse boss-man Blackstone into paying her more. The ruse didn’t work. But after a couple of these, bar-bunn didn’t care.

Aperol Spritz

It was a warm afternoon, and Yuni had just knocked off for the day (from her day job). She was tired, thirsty, and mildly irritated. So, she made an Aperol Spritz. Now, she won’t claim it will save the world, but it saved her afternoon. Perfect after a hard day’s work to get you ready for dinner, this is the quintessential apéritif. It’s also dead simple to make. Add this together and it’s a bar-bunn favorite.
