A.k.a. "mustache". Refers to where you are imbibing Pure Leaf tea or other
liquid-libation which contains yucky dregs that you'd just as soon not hafta
gag down while quenching your thirst, and so you angle your
head back and slowly pour the beverage onto your mustache so that your Fu Manchu bristles catch most of the drink's offending particulate while allowing the refreshing
liquid part to seep down through your upper-lip caterpillar and into your open mouth. Depending on the quantity and concentration of
said sludgy sediments, you may need to pause frequently to wipe off the accumulated residues from your 'stache with a paper towel, but this minor inconvenience is small potatoes compared to the acute tongue/throat discomfort of having to actually ingest
said stringy/gelatinous goo along with your flavorful fluid!
Utilizing your
facial-fur filter takes some practice, but just like the upper-lip valve method of swigging your bottled whistle-wetter, this technique can
indeed be perfected through careful and frequent employment, and allow you to guzzle your drink "cleanly"; i.e., without gagging or spilling
anything on your shirt.
