Black Wine

  Blackwine:

  -(Noun): Blackwine is made from coffee beans brought back from Earth on one of the early Voyages of Acquisition. On Gor, the beans are grown on the slopes of the Thentis Mountains, and they are smaller than the originals. Some drink blackwine as they would regular coffee, but others are going by another discription, stating that black wine is thicker then regular coffee, it is said that blackwine is somewhat syrupy and sweet (this according to a reference a friend of ivy's gave her when she first came to Gor.) If someone drank a large mug of blackwine it would keep them running for at least a month. Imagine if you will, 3/4 of a pot of coffee grounds brewed with one pot of water. A caffeine addicts delight.

  -Book 11: Slave Girl of Gor, page 73 and Book 10: Tribesmen of Gor, page 89 Book 16: Guardsman of Gor, page 245

  Blackwine first slave: with cream and sugar; is also known as "en kajira"

  Blackwine second slave: simply blackwine with no cream or sugar; is also known as "se` kajira."

  Dark, it is usually black with sugar. or a tiny splash of cream. You need to ask in serve if they wish it no cream or a splash of cream.

    Tanned, is enough cream to make it a nice Tanned color.

    Light is enough cream to make it very creamy and light.

  Sugars of Gor: The only two sugars of Gor are White and Yellow, they normally come in a rock formation,like your rock candy of Earth. There is a mistake on irc Gor in which many have said it was red or yellow sugar. According to ivy's resources (and she has checked many), red sugar is actually salt. Can you imagine pouring salt into a Master's blackwine.. *cringes with the thought* ivy avoids any reference to red sugar, and always serves white or yellow.

    White sugar: is like the sugar on Earth but in rock candy style.
    Yellow sugar: has an almost bitter flavor (according to ivy's resources) also in rock candy style.

  Hint for remembering which is First or Second Slave:
    This little story was told to ivy, to teach her the way to remember which way is first slave, also known as "en kajira" and which way is second slave also known as "se` kajira".
    It is said that in the beginning when blackwine was served it was served by two slaves, the first slave getting the cup, mug, sugars and creams and then putting them into the vessel, and the second slave got the pot of blackwine and poured it into the awaiting vessel. So it be came associated with first slave as with sugars, cream or both. and second as strong and black.

  ivy's suggestion for conflict with blackwine is as follows: on irc Gor most people associate it with coffee. Therefore it is usually served in a mug. The only time ivy uses tiny silver cups is if she knows that the Master or Mistress wants it that way.
    Sometimes, if ivy knows that the Master or Mistress is having it with sugar and cream she will serve it in tiny silver cups if she knows that they have no preference and she wishes to impress them. But because of the differences unless the Master or Mistress gives an indication that they want the dessert blackwine she treats it as coffee. Irc Gor is very hard, because in most cases they do not follow closely to the scrolls and you end up getting into alot of trouble so ivy has learned safety zones, and how to interact with both "usually" without too much trouble.

  One of the Main Rules A Master or Mistress is Never Wrong so if they ask for something that you know is not of Gor or of the Scrolls, give it to them anyway and do not question it. This will save you a lot of heartache.

  Vessel to be served in: If serving as Earthen Coffee, use a mug. Otherwise if serving dessert blackwine, or wanting to impress when serving blackwine first slave, use brasier, with silver pot and tiny silver cups.

    First slave: usually fixed at the Master or Mistress's feet. but could be fixed in servery if you knew Master or Mistress wished it that way.

    Second slave: prepared in servery
