Is it worth the 25 bucks bag check fee to bring this home? The bottle cost is 25 also, I forgot to check the alcohol percentage though. aloha all :drink: The Oke is good. But its not the same proof and doesn't taste similar to the old stuff, either the manufactured Oke or the original moonshine. BUT, do not leave the island without scoring several bottles of Auntie Lilikoi's Passion Fruit syrup. You can either get it at her shop in Waimea or I think the Long's in Kapaa sells it. The best passionfruit syrup made. And its a lot cheaper to go to the post office in Kapaa, get a free Aloha Box, and then mail it for the flat rate of $15.00. You can get several bottles in one of those boxes and you don't have to lug it on the plane. Oh and if you get the box you will have room for the Scotty's BBQ Tiki Farm mug (also in Kapaa). Not really a Tiki Mug but its a cool mug in the shape of one of those round Weber BBQ's.
