===Twiligh Tea=== |
|||
The Twilight Tea, also known as "Dark Tea," is a popular beverage cherished across humanity's far-reaching colonies. Its rapid rise in popularity owes much to its ease of cultivation and mass production. Originally grown in the misty, oxygen-rich fields of Emerald, these tea leaves developed a deeper, bolder taste compared to the traditional black teas of Old Earth. |
|||

|||
Dedicated agricultural fields on Emerald, Atlantis, and Aboriya cultivate this tea with care. Colonies on Atlantis and Aboriya, in particular, have adapted their domes to replicate the oxygen-rich environment needed to foster the unique character of these leaves. |
|||
Twilight Tea is widely enjoyed throughout human settlements, from the Solar System to the outer colonies connected by the Bridges. The tea’s heightened oxygenation gives it a richer taste and provides a calming effect, often accompanied by mild visual and sensory relaxation. Many see it as a gentle, harmless alternative to nicotine found in tobacco leaves, like those used in Vishap Cigars and similar brands. |
|||
Burning the dried leaves of Twilight Tea releases a warm, woodsy aroma reminiscent of Old Earth forests, making it a favorite for luxury hotels, service rooms, and bars aiming to create a welcoming ambiance. Some consider Twilight Tea a cultural phenomenon and the pinnacle of tea craft, embodying humanity’s resilience and tradition. |
|||
However, the tea’s relaxing effects have earned it a dubious reputation among certain criminal syndicates, who see it as a "weakening agent" for their mercenaries. As a result, some factions have banned it within their ranks, leading to widespread disagreement and an underground market to smuggle the tea to eager consumers. |

===Haumea Bourbon Whiskey=== |
|||
Haumean Bourbon Whiskey is an iconic beverage within the Solar System, produced exclusively on the dwarf planet Haumea and its moons. Its distinct taste—spiced and enriched by aging in American Oak barrels—lends a unique character to its whiskey craftsmanship. With the oak wood imported directly from Old Earth, this whiskey retains a timeless flavor, and the rarity of its origin has led to a marked premium in price. |
|||
Remaining popular into the 26th century among pubs, bars, and luxury enthusiasts, Haumean Bourbon evokes a nostalgic connection to humanity’s roots. Though humanity has spread across new territories around Cooper’s Star, the logistical challenges of transporting Haumean Bourbon across vast distances haven’t deterred its dedicated followers, as organizations continue to maintain production on Haumea. |
|||
Enthusiasts enjoy several serving variations, primarily the traditional old-fashioned style. One especially daring mix pairs it with a safe dose of Killer Quinn’s cyanidic juice, creating a signature blend. However, many still recommend the classic bourbon enjoyed with a Vishap Cigar for the ultimate experience. |
|||
Haumean Bourbon is preferred drink of United LunaTerra's ex Prime Minister Anders Arashi |
|||
===Edelweiss Moonshine=== |
|||
Edelweiss Moonshine—humorously dubbed “Hardcore Men’s Motor Oil” or “Tengri Vodka”—is a robust alcoholic beverage beloved by the colonies of the Edelweiss Galaxy, particularly those under the SnowStorm Union. Traditionally distilled from any plant that can endure the harsh local environments, its origins trace back to Wolf Totem, where it was first brewed from pine needles and fir cones. With an alcohol content of 45%, Edelweiss Moonshine embodies the resilience and vigor of people born in the blizzards of distant worlds. |
|||
Connoisseurs often recommend pairing Edelweiss Moonshine with edible roots grown on Kozuya’s barren lands, adding a naturally sweet, earthy note that perfectly complements this powerful, pine-scented spirit. |

Dragon Cigars
The Dragon Cigars, also known as Vishap Cigars, are a distinguished tobacco commodity from the planet Vishapakar in Barnard’s Star. First crafted in 2234 by a notable agriculturalist within the communist colonies, the cigars quickly gained fame. Grown within the colony's artificial environment, the tobacco developed a unique flavor reminiscent of roses—a sweet taste that soon spread throughout the settlement, capturing the hearts of enthusiasts.
Vishap Cigars are known for their striking appearance: wrapped in reddish tobacco leaves, each cigar is emblazoned with the words “Vishap Cigar” and features a carved dragon in the ancient Chinese art style. With each puff, the smoker enjoys a delicate rose aroma, further enhancing the cigars' unique appeal. This distinct combination of taste and presentation made them a sought-after luxury across the local stellar neighborhood during the 24th century, particularly in the Solar System, alongside Haumean Bourbon Whiskey.
During the Dragon’s Fall War, Harrison Wells received a gift of Vishap Cigars from an S.E.A. mercenary on Lagrangian Station 4, and they soon became his favorite smoke.
By the 26th century, even after humanity’s mass shift into other parts of the galaxy, the legacy of Vishap Cigars carried on. They remain popular among vintage aficionados in the Abraham star system, neighboring Cooper’s Star, continuing to embody an era’s charm and indulgence.
