[Sca-cooks] Goatee stories - Rockrose

[S CLEMENGER]

It's a resin used in herbal medicines and perfumes.
I did a quick search for it, and got this wikipedia hit:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labdanum<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labdanum>
It's got a lot of generalizations (I'm still not sure wikipedia articles are worth the paper they're written on).  It mentions Suey's pharonic connection, though, so they may have had the same source for that particular tidbit.
