Originally, The New Distillery was supposed to be set up on the Terrace of the Hand That Crafts, in an old building of the Philters Ladder, in the district of the Bird. The symbolism was beautiful but from the beginning of the work, merchant guilds rose up and opposed, sometimes violently, this new establishment. Under the pretext of smells, various nuisances, and loudly expressing the fear that this “kind of establishment” could attract more or less intoxicated individuals at any time of the day and night.

And they won! The new entrepreneurs then crossed the Ladder of the Three Inns and settled on The Lakeshoe, at the southern end of a set of solid and healthy buildings, on the Golden Goblet Ladder. The name of the Distillery was all found.

Since then, the district has been named The New Distillery and the establishment thrives there and actively contributes to the fame of these places, concocting fine, tasty, distinguished products, intoxicating and subtle nectars, tasted everywhere in Laelith and in the Six Provinces. And life there is as good as in the neighboring district of the Phoenix.
