Dragonsblut: Sigurd and the slaying of the great Dragon Fafnir
Valkyrie Dragonsblut™ was inspired by classic Norse tales of Sigurd’s epic quest: “Sigurd then slew the mighty dragon Fafnir. Victoriously sheathing his now sanguine blade, Sigurd fortuitously raised a bloody and scalded finger to his lips. Tasting and then understanding the dragon’s mystical essence, Sigurd was transfigured. Left breathless, yet in one single sacred moment, he was truely reborn. Hallowed Enlightenment - “Die Vogelgesang” - became Sigurd’s ultimate bounty...
Stepping out from the dragon’s lair and into the glistening sunlight of the new day, Sigurd intuitively recognized and understood “Die Vogelgesang” - “The Birdsong” - the divine and mystical language-song of nature. Leaning his head back, he drank a long, deep and honorable warriors' breath, as the magnificent scents of honeysuckle and life purpose wafted on the warm Summer’s breeze. Sigurd then exhaled, bowing his head in humble acknowledgement, and for the first time in his life, understood that the dark pall had indeed been lifted: one quest was ending, while another was just beginning…”
Available in Edeleiche (Oaked) and Reinlich (Unoaked).
