Andrei Grigorescu

Count Andrei Grigorescu was one of the wealthiest and well-known men in Romania during the nineteenth century, both for his family name and his reputation among the women he had bedded before and after marriage. When the time came for him to marry, he was determined to make the most coveted woman in the land his, Athenodora Lupesc, though he was not about to cease his habits of gluttonous pleasure with various women for the sake of his wife. Continuing his affair with the women he kept at bay in the shadows of his life, his wife soon found out of his deeds and, ridden with despair, ended her life to then rise anew as upir and take him as her first victim. Years later, he was resurrected from the dead by one of his mistresses, a skilled necromancer dealing with the dark arts. Hellbent on regaining some semblance of his past life of luxury and unconsciously beginning to seek some form of redemption, the confluence of bloody cherry and smoky flavors make for a perfect brew highlighting his love for debauchery.
