Turk's Head Brand Honey-
Now available to the rest of the world for the first time!
Pure McIntyrian-made honey, sent straight to you! Now you can taste the best honey in the world, that was previously only available to the most discerning and cosmopolitan gourmets. Our honey is made by bees that feed off of the rare McIntyrian goldenrod, known by foremost botanists and bee-keepers to produce a honey so rare and complex, that is was kept as a perquisite for the McIntyrian Royal Family.
We are now offering the finest honey and honey products in the world. Are you looking for an all-natural honey? We have it!
One 8oz. jar of raw comb honey made from wildflowers- now only 5 zloteks!
Are you looking for bulk sale? We'll try to accommodate you.
1 metric ton of pure raw honey - only 10,000 zloteks, or $5600!
We also sell Royal Jelly! Yes! The very same Royal Jelly used by the Grand Duchess herself, and found in our beautiful health spa at Gerzina! Royal Jelly is excellent for the skin and helps slow down aging.
One 16 oz. jar of finest Turk's Head brand Royal Jelly- now only 50 zloteks!
One ton of Royal Jelly- 40000 zloteks, or $22400!
We also sell beeswax candles (perfect for religious ceremonies and blessed by a rabbi, Catholic priest or imam- your choice), honey-based soaps, and even sealing wax, for all your diplomatic needs!
These prices are introductory only. For purchase, please contact Yasser Goffman, Turk's Head Brand Products, 127 Duke Eliahustrasse, Leonardia, Duchy of McIntyre.
OOC: I can't help but think of those emerging Eastern European nations who are trying to hawk their products. While this is a real ad for my nation, it's slightly ridiculous on purpose.

The Republic of Steel and Fire would like to purchase 500 grams of honey and a wax candle (Pastafarian). The honey must be stored inside a paper bag, and the paper bag must be placed inside a container in the shape of a three-headed snake devouring a rat with one head, wielding a torch in the second, and spearing a ram with a scimitar in the third, with the ram wearing the skin of a wolf and eating an apple. In addition, this container must be painted with the emblem of Steel and Fire, just with the colours reversed, and there must be an appropriate hole in the snake's neck to hold the wax candle, standing fully upright. We shall pay up to $500 extra for these conditions to be met, but if the container is not exactly to our satisfaction, we shall not pay the full price.
-- Department of Procurement
While our government has no need for beeswax candles and the like, our citizens would probably enjoy them. If you wish, you may open stores selling these products within our nation.
Best of luck to your new business.
Honey is a much prized commodity in the Empire, and we will allow you to sell it in our trading posts.

While the McIntyrian Honey Board thought this was an odd request, they are ready to please. Mr Goffman made arrangements with a few of the realm's finest artisans, and then wrote back to The Republic of Steel and Fire to ask whether they wanted the container made out of wood, metal, or plastic, and if they had any further specifications as to type.

Greetings! We have sent you 16 oz. each of our finest honeys of different flower types. We feel this should be enough for you to make your taste selection. Surely 500 tons of honey would be a bit much for tasting, yes? Please let us know which honey you prefer, and we shall be happy to open trade with you.
PS- Unfortunately, we do not export our bees, as they are the national symbol of our country. We would however, be happy to send bee researchers and breeders to your country to guide you in setting up bee-keeping.
Sincerely,
Yasser Goffman

Prime Minister David Flower loves honey, and would like a sampler of two jars of every kind of honey you have, but the other should have the comb inside it. Please give the price of this honey so we may pay you.

Dear Mr.
Yasser Goffman
McIntyrian Honey Board.
We are still tasting the different kinds of honey you sent us.
We suspect many of our quality testers are just making this issue last too long because your honey is delicious.
After a meeting with the members of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce, we gladly accept your offer of bee researchers and breeders.
We'll be waiting for their arrival to accomodate them in comfortable and adequate facilities.

The honey should be arriving in your port about now. We thank you for your business.
We would like to open 6 honey product shops within your nation immediately, with the prospect of more in the near future.
We will shortly contact you regarding an exchange of envoys.

Our nation has a free market economy, so you are free to open as many stores in our nation as you please. Alternatively, a few existing grocery chains, department stores, and specialty shops have expressed an interest in carrying your products.
