I find the difference between orgeat and falernum to be very great.
And that recipe with the falernum at the top of this thread looks very appealing.

As far as the language issues are concerned, I've often wondered the same thing.
I'd like to hear from someone that speaks Tahitian lay down a judgement on that.

I've also heard that "Mai Kai" means "the best."
And I've heard it means "the sea."
