Brandy from The Driftwood Tavern in Neverwinter - Puncheons and Flagons

Brandy from The Driftwood Tavern in Neverwinter. The Driftwood Tavern is an upmarket inn with a fine reputation and a magnificently curated museum recounting Neverwinter's troubled history, which includes sieges, coups, civil uprisings, and the devastating eruption of Mount Hotenow.

Superstitious patrons at the Driftwood may order this drink as a "Caladorn" to avoid invoking the Cassalanter name and its diabolical associations.
