About the Grand Chevalier. It is produced and bottled by Gaetano Specialties, LTD, Princeton, MN

Grand Chevalier Liquer 750ml made with natural orange flavor and fine brandy. 80 proof
$13. at Beverages and More

Just tried some straight, I'm not much of a brandy drinker but it tastes alot like Grand Marnier only thinner and less rich if thats the right way to describe it. But it is still very good and I like it. I have used Grand Marnier in mai tai's like some of you a few times but cringed at wasting it in a mixed drink. Grand Chevalier tastes the same in a drink for a third the price but it lacks the peel taste so I will stick with curacao.

DJ, sorry to hear you have such a problem in Washington State. It's easy to take things for granted living here and I can't imagine what it is like to get hard to find items. If I makes it to the Shrunken Head Lounge soon I'll bring some items that we have here in California. Just don't ask for Pimento Liquer, Ok?
