| Magincian

|
| Trinsic Port |
|
The
port from Trinsic is a product of the deeply flavored red
grapes which grow nearby the city. Its golden-brown color
comes from the extended barrell-aging process. The flavor
is bold and sweet, with a heady and smoky aroma.
[RL Counterpart: High-end tawny porto.]
|
| Moonglow's
Folly |
|
A rich
and mellow wheat beer brewed on Verity Isle. Its rich, golden
color, fragrant aroma, and crisp taste are highly refreshing
to the senses.
[RL Counterpart: Franziskaner]
|
| Britain Dry
Sherry |
|
The
signature sherry from Britain is bottled young, making it
much more pale and dry than other varieties found in Britainnia.
It has a fresh yeasty flavor, and sits light on the drinker.
[RL Counterpart: Any high-end fino variety Sherry.]
|
| Skara Brae
Mead |
|
The
honey of Skara Brae lends a certain wildness to this richly
sweet mead. Sharp aroma and a slightly biting sweetness characterize
this golden drink.

|
| Spektran Banana
Peel |
|
Distilled
on Spektran from mashed bananas, this liqeur is creamy and
heavily sweet. The beverage in itself can make for a filling
dessert, though most often it is used for cooking (except
on Spektran, where the locals drink this casually).
[RL Counterpart: Any banana creme liqeur.]
|
| Gargish Spirits |
|
The
drink of the gargls is a thick black liquid that is reminiscent
of rum, but more molasses-like in flavor. Humans are cautioned
when drinking this beverage, as its smooth flavor belies a
very high alcohol content.
[RL Counterpart: 151 proof black rum.]
|
| Buccaneer's
Rum |
|
Of
all the different rums that can be found on Buccaneer's Den,
this specialty version is the favored among the pirates of
renown. This gold rum is flavored with a variety of sweet
spices, giving it a unique twist to satisfy the swashbuckler
in anyone.
