The piece consists of two services that explore Pihlajavaara kaolin clay as an element accompanying a custom herbal wine.
Preparations and process photos.
In service 1, the wine is filtered and served to the audience through a "flavour chute" mesh containing salt, sugar, beeswax & powdered kaolin clay.
In service 2, bisque fired and raw kaolin clay balls are served as a pairing suggestion with the wine, connecting the tasting to an auditory experience, and kaolin's slow dissolving to the drink.
