Raven's Remedy
In the wake of the War of 344, as the shadow of conflict began to lift from Stoze, the illustrious Queen Isolde Ravenswood sought to usher in a new era of peace and hope. To commemorate this pivotal moment in history, the greatest brewmasters of Stoze came together under her watchful eye to create a libation that would symbolize not only the end of war but the promise of a brighter future. Thus, Raven's Remedy was born.
Queen Isolde, known for her discerning taste and appreciation for the arts, personally oversaw the creation of this concoction. In the grand halls of Murdershold, the nation's best brewmasters were summoned to present their variations of the drink. Countless trials ensued, each version an attempt to capture the essence of the new era—where the Queen's realm looked forward to a time of peace and prosperity.
The final recipe emerged from the collaborative efforts of three brothers, Egerton, Perceval and Byron, each masterful in their craft. They combined a blend of carefully aged spirits representing the endurance of the nation, spiced bitter root signifying the challenges faced, and a touch of blackberry as a nod to the sweetness that lay ahead. This created the perfect cocktail to represent the nation and the future Queen Isolde envisions.
Raven's Remedy was declared the official drink of celebration and reflection, often served in ornate goblets adorned with the Ravenswood insignia. The elite often have their own bottled collection of Raven's Remedy in their homes for consumption during special events and social gatherings. Its blend of spirits paired with the spiced bitter root provide a depth of flavors that mesh together perfectly and finish with a very subtle sweetness from the blackberry. It's rich, complex and intriguing with each sip granting more details than the last.
