Exterior: Cozy two-story log building with a mossy roof, wide front porch, and a hanging sign of a bourbon barrel with a waffle etched on it. No one expects the patrons to be able to read, merely identify symbols.
Detached Warehouse: Where Veronica and a few trusted staff actually produce bourbon.
Interior: Warm, low-beamed ceilings, flickering lantern light, rough oak tables, big stone hearth with pine-log fire. Smells of bourbon, maple, smoke, and fresh waffles.
The Bar: Rows of small barrels behind it filled with Veronica’s signature oak-aged bourbon (smooth, vanilla & toasted notes).
Signature Fare:
Veronica's House Bourbon (1 gp for a quadruple shot!).
Legendary waffles – crisp outside, fluffy inside; served sweet with Wood Elf Maple Syrup/Wild Mistberry Preserves. (Also 1gp because as it says, these are legendary.)
Typical Patrons: Local lumberjacks, locals, traders, sometimes students from Mythburg walking the H.T.. Overall quiet but friendly frontier crowd.
Development
The Party wandered into the tavern and met Veronica. They'd been told by Julian that he'd like them to acquire a barrel of bourbon and he'd pay them well for it. Veronica being the bourbon producer through this operation suggested a price of 100gp for one of her small barrels. No purchase was made at the time.
Succu in her capacity of Windward Mail delivery was taking a rest at the tavern and once again encountered The Party for banter, predictably triggering Eyrun.
