But then again, I imagine there are a few of you who have a stash they'd let a pro sample if in return a fresh batch could be made by the gallon. I have some vintage Okolehao and I will part with some of it. When you are ready, send me a private message with the mailing address. I will send a sealed vial with about 1.5 oz (a shot) so you can taste or analyze the real stuff and get your recipe as accurate as possible. You are on the right track to use the same method as brandy distillers use. The color and flavor are very reminiscent of brandy. Good luck on the project.
