Temi's Original

That's not water you just spilled....

— An Irate Bartender

Overview

Temi's Original wine was created by Temi Otima. It is widely regarded as the best wine on the Quassus Continent and the process of its creation is a highly guarded secret known only to select members of the Otima family.
Many suspect that the process used to create this wine is surprisingly incomplete compared to the creation of red or white wines. And yet, Temi's Original more than stands on its own compared to the best reds and whites in terms of aroma and taste. Whatever the secret ingredient is, the Otima family will not reveal it any time soon. Many have tried to replicate it with little to no success.

Temi Otima

The drink bears the name of its creator, the renowned organizer of massive parties Temi Tastebud Otima. She was known to evaluate cuisine and beverage alike to her impossible standards. So much so that she decided one night that her time would be best spent on developing the perfect wine for that perfect party she dreamed of. She spent many nights trying out different ingredients in almost every combination conceivable to the determined faun. Eventually, she did create a drink that she was actually pleased with on all accounts (maybe not on color).
Temi spent the rest of her life perfecting her "original" drink. It is said that she did actually achieve perfection as she died of alcohol poisoning one night after making another batch. While she never left notes as to how she made that exact batch, the family has remembered how to create the previous varieties. It is rumored that a few bottles of that "perfect" variety still exists hidden within the Chateau d'Otima itself. It is also rumored that this perfect variety shimmers with color when presented in the right light. If anyone got a hold of that batch, they could undoubtedly obtain a massive fortune on its sale.
For the creation of the best wine, and the unbelievable resplendence of her parties, Temi Otima has earned a place in Awldor's history. Her contribution to Winemaking has lasted to this day.

Chateau d'Otima

Established 847AGC, It is no exaggeration that Chateau d'Otima owes its very existence to Temi's Original. The drink remains the cornerstone of the Otima business.

I have a few bottles stashed away for special occasions. And those occasions have to special because these were expensive bottles! - Archivist Taenya Naïlo
