Dragonfire Meadery
Artisanal Mead
handcrafted in small batches
A pyment style mead, Apsu combines the richness of honey and the crispness of Riesling grapes.
According to the ancient wisdom of Mesopotamia, all life came from the water. Apsu was the ruler of fresh water and husband to Tiamat. Their union gave birth to the first dieties.
As their children flourished, their numbers increased, and they brought light and order into being. Apsu could not stand that his peace was being disturbed and so decided to
kill his offspring. Tiamat’s plan differed, so Apsu took the help of his Advisor to help plan and carry out the
deed. This did not sit well with the children, so they came up with a plan of their own, to kill Apsu.
Enki was the one to cast a spell of sleep on Apsu and as he slept, he
killed him. Tiamat was consumed with rage at
this and tried to kill the offspring in response. Enki’s son Marduk was the one to finish the task and kill Tiamat.
