I knew the word started with a g! I just know the word started with a g!

And that the dictionary was wrong, wrong, wrong that the word I wanted wasn't there...

It's

degustation. degust... to taste, to relish, to have a relishing taste.
degustate, to degust.
degustation, the act of tasting.
degustatory the act of tasting.
Latin source is de, (down) and gustare (to taste)

Romance writers of the world jump for joy. If you are game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Darling, do I degust you?"

"Yes my sweet nothing. You degust any time, any place."

And so she did.
