kunik - n., an Eskimo kiss.
From the Inuit word for a gesture of affection, though unlike the Western understanding of the term, it does not necessarily involve nose-to-nose (let alone rubbing noses) but is more of a nuzzle with the nose on the part of another's body (cheek, forehead, whatever) one wishes to kunik.
