The Throat of the Dragon
Some recipes were never written down. They were whispered.
Forgotten Blends are not simply elixirs—they are echoes.
Stirred from ancient hands, carried across lifetimes,
they are vessels of memory and unspoken truths.
The Throat of the Dragon
Ancient Origin: This is a reclamation from lores.
This fierce fire-tonic is not for the faint-hearted. The Throat of the Dragon rises as a roar of protection and power. It is for those who carry their truth in their chest, and need the flame to release it.
The Throat of the Dragon was born from fire temples, ritual chants, and the unyielding desire to speak when the world demands your silence. It does not ask for permission. It clears the path—physically, spiritually, unapologetically.
Traditional Properties
This blend draws from ancient healing traditions where heat and pungency were not enemies of the body, but allies. Garlic and thyme serve as ancestral purifiers, while chili and black pepper awaken the internal forge. Sage clears energetic residue, and raw honey sweetens the blow.
