Update: The eBay seller of the Jonathan English brand products, who seemed rather perturbed by the article, says that it's "produced several times per year," which makes a lot more sense. He also says the Jonathan English brand "is alive and well" and that company "is on the cutting edge of cocktail mixers offering a full line of true quality classic bar mixes, and supplying demand for dispenser syrups made with cane sugar & natural ingredients."

This pretty much ends the mystery of the Jonathan English brand, but still no clue as to whether this syrup is indeed the same formula as the one Donn Beach and others used back in the day. All I know is it's pretty close to what The Mai-Kai has been using in recent times. I ran the article by Kern Mattei, but he hasn't given me any juicy info yet.
