Perhaps the old oke brand from LeVecke is OLD News, Swank, but this product is not that to which you are referring. Trust me, these folks have invested quite a bit a money on the NEW oke brand to not carry it through. They already have everything in place for the launch and I am talking with them directly not reading press releases.

We'll have to see, and after I get the samples I'll report back. Steve Thompson is the former president of Brown Foreman (you know..JACK DANIELS). He is not some fly by night operator, he is a major spirits insider and my money is on him, his resources, and his network. This man will not allow this venture to flop. It will happen.

Before the Revolution, the per capita consumption of RUM in the Colonies was 3.7 gallons PER person. We have become a Neo-temperant nation of wimps and quitters! We must rise, Tiki Nation, and raise our ceramic mugs in resistance to teatotaling!
