PAGA
A grain-based, distilled hard liquor akin to whiskey. The common abbreviated form of Pagar-Sa-Tarna, literally meaning, "pleasure of the life-daughter", the expression is related to Sa-Tassna, the expression for meat, or food in general, which means Life-Mother. Paga is a very strong alcoholic beverage distilled from the Sa-Tarna grain, and similar to nothing of Urth. Paga is traditionally served warm, although there are regional preferences and styles. Our Paga is a rancid, lumpy brew made only for the palate of strong Warriors. In Paga taverns, there is usually a Paga attendant- a male employee, who supervises the serving of Paga by slavegirls, and collects payment for the Paga and the use of the slavegirls. It sometimes symbolizes physical love.
I decided, if worse came to worst, that I could always go to a simple Paga Tavern where, if those of Tharna resembled those of Ko-ro-ba and Ar, one might, curled in a rug behind the low tables, unobtrusively spend the night for the price of a pot of Paga. Outlaw of Gor, page 74, Tarnsman of Gor pg 43-44 and 61
What are the different ways Paga can be served?
Post the answer along with a chilled paga serve to a Master. (This Master asked for a serve with fire.)
