i did do the TC footwork, and was not able to find a thread about this spirit. if there was one, i apologize for the redundancy.
being an irish and blended whiskey fan, i instantly fell in love with okolehao. i have been given two samplings of it, and can not find it. mike sr. at tiki ti said that it was actually produced in california, but was only available in hawaii. i did some research, but was not able to track down the manufacturer here. i have also been told that it was recently discontinued, but that they still produce the liqueur. the liqueur tastes nothing like the spirit, being a sweet version with the root flavor almost completely removed.
i thought i would put it up to TC, see if the international community knows a source, or at least an old liquor store that may have backstock. not having a lot of hope, but it is worth a try.
