 Ring in the New Year 2012 with this beautiful LUCKY cocktail.


Geisha’s Nectar

Under those flowing layers of silk, soft citrus fragrance, and demure inviting persona, is a woman who has been trained in the arts of love, all of them, and has committed her youth to the service of men.  A lost and much missed tradition as far as I’m concerned; she glides through the gardens in quite contemplation, dreaming about the next discrete encounter.  The price you pay depends solely on the satisfaction you receive.   Imagine for a moment laying down on a bed of pillows, the soft breeze rustling the rice paper walls.  Your own silk comono falling loosely off your chest, while she caresses your body with the soft feathers of a Golden Pheasant.  She leans in so close you can feel her warm breath, hear her heart pound as the pulse of your body rises.  She wants you just as much as your aching body strains for her ever-tenuous loins.  The art of Tantric is not so kind as to give you the immediate release that your craving, cool down with this Tonic, and let the foreign aphrodisiacs of these flavors cool you down before you fall into her wet abyss.

Mrs. Robinson

Oh yeah don’t you wish.  We all grew up hearing about her, watching her with the refined grace of an educated woman who’s stamina cannot be matched by men of her age.  Her, craving the youth and passion of the younger generation, or two.  She knows how to seduce you with her eyes, tease the straining intrigue, and make you lust after the knowledge she is offering.  In order to get past the introduction, you will have to know how to present yourself as one who is deserving of the knowledge she can teach you, open to experiences that you have barely heard of.  Do not shy, do not show weakness, give her what she wants, again and again, and she will rest in the depths of your conscious for eternity.   Let’s start with her mouth…
