Chateau Romani,(MM | HWL)[1][name reference needed] also known as Vintage Milk,(MM)[2] and the Milk of the Night,(MM)[3] is a recurring Item in The Legend of Zelda series.
Location and Uses
Majora's Mask
Chateau Romani is a highly luxurious vintage Milk produced by the best of Romani Ranch's specially-bred Cows.[4][5][6] The beverage is exclusively sold at the Milk Bar at a very pricey 200 Rupees per Bottle, after Link helps Cremia deliver it during the night of the Second Day (therefore cannot be bought in the First Day), and is the building's best seller despite the hefty price.[7] This rare Milk functions like the Blue Potion, as it completely refills Link's Life Energy and Magic Meter, but it additionally grants him unlimited Magic for the duration of the current 3-day cycle (making the bar turn blue).[8][9] This makes events that require extensive use of the magic meter significantly easier, specifically as the battles against Goht and Twinmold, the Goron Race, as well as actively using the Zora Barrier as Zora Link.
Link can obtain a Bottle of Chateau Romani for free if he delivers Kafei's letter to Madame Aroma in person as part of the Reuniting Kafei and Anju sidequest in the Final Day.[10] In Majora's Mask 3D, after the Bottle of Chateau Romani is received from Madame Aroma, Link receives a Fishing Hole Pass instead.

Trivia
- Considering its inebriating effects, it is possible Chateau Romani may in fact be a form of Kumis, a form of fermented mare milk with mild alcoholic properties.
- Although Chateau Romani is clearly a healthy milk in the case of Link, the drink may be in place of alcoholic beverages for Termina; Cremia normally refuses her little sister Romani drinking it, as she claims it is for adults, and this product is only found in a bar.
- Ironically, the cost of the Chateau Romani is ten times the price of the regular Milk, which is just 20 Rupees per Bottle, giving its high quality and rarity.
