“My liege,” shouted an overly excited many as he barged into my office, disturbing my evening read. “My apologies for the intrusion but the Apiarist Guild sends word that the first crate of Erikosian Honey is ready!” I was suddenly much more interested, the Apiarist Guild had built a large bee farm and a bottling plant recently; I was eager about it from the very start. “Excellent news, tell your master that I will inspect the shipment first thing in the morning.” He left with the same hurried pace that he entered and I returned to my reading.
Erikosian Honey is honey with a slightly spicy after taste. This is thanks to its bottling process. The honey is extracted from the vast bee farm and transported to the Bottling Plant where it is put into bottles. Before this however a red root native to Erikos is added to the bottle where it is left inside as the honey is added. Once in the bottle, the honey is left to ferment for a short period and picks up the spicy hint. Erikosian Honey is bottled in premium bottles carrying the label as well the Apiarist Guild Seal of Approval, promising its quality.
