It has seemed like an eternity since our last episode, but we are excited about this one. We talk a bit about vampires in their different origins and how they changed over multiple areas of the world. Then we try a bit of the “vampire’s blood” itself with a Cherry Glühwein, a wine that could make you think of the dark cellars of a looming mountaintop castle. Tightly congested with various casks emanating an oaky scent which seems strong enough to choke out the light, it would appear the primary resident would enjoy many lifetimes of the drink…

Not all is as it seems.
