A quill-drawn Gothic script face by Alexandra Korolkova that applies a Fraktur aesthetic to Cyrillic and Latin alike, with swash and alternate variants.

It includes a set of alternates, swashes and discretional ligatures that add decorative range. The face is suited to advertising contexts where Gothic lettering carries cultural currency, such as beer, food and pub-related material.
