No sources provided, nor do there seem to be any on the Internet. Quite possibly a hoax. Oneforfortytwo (talk) 23:00, 21 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - While I'm almost positive the term isn't a hoax, I am unable to find any kind of RS to confirm. This is the only source I could find, which I wouldn't deem reliable by any means. Meatsgains (talk) 00:30, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment - I've found a few more uses of this online - here, here, here, here and here - most of which relate to the design of an Old Fashioned glass. None of these is especially reliable, but at least one or two are from glassware retailers. It's possible that this has been on Wikipedia so long that, like certain other words in the English language, it is now actually becoming used in the way described. --Rob linham (talk) 10:20, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. It's not in the Oxford or Merriam-Webster dictionaries, nor do I find much out there in the interwebs. A dab page could be cobbled together afterward: Irène Tunc; one of the two novels comprising The Revolt of Aphrodite; Tunc Blumenthal, a character in Marooned in Realtime; Tunç; a mistaken surname of the Blessed Gerard.
