Unwind with this soft-spoken ASMR journey into the High Middle Ages, where history and tingles collide. Starting in 1099, as Jerusalem falls to the Crusaders, we trace the path of the world’s most coveted spices—clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, and black pepper—as they travel from distant islands and markets to the grand feasts of kings and queens.

Feel the gentle crinkles of parchment, soft bubble wrap pops, rhythmic clicking, and calming whispers as we uncover how the spice trade shaped the course of history. From King Richard the Lionheart and King John to Queen Johanna of Naples and the rise of the Medici family, each moment is woven with relaxing sounds and fascinating tales of power, wealth, and survival.

Perfect for ASMR lovers who crave tingles, crinkly textures, and clicking sounds—while learning about medieval trade, wars, and empires.
