AceExplorer, thank you for that input on falernum. You offer a valid point! I will enjoy exploring this further in another thread.

With regards to taste and color, in principal I agree with you, however, in practice and in the context of 'tiki' drinks themselves, (which are oft-debated and highly detailed and excessively scrutinized creations), the correct taste SHOULD yield the correct color. There is a direct correlation between the two as they are both intrinsically synonymous with each other. Specific brand names, techniques, methods, and best practices in the 'tiki' milieu are some of the most hotly debated and contentious issues I've ever seen. Contrary to popular belief, there's not too much disparity between the mass products that the Mai-Kai uses (the so-called 'trade products') versus general consumer products. A simple visit to Costco, GFS or Restaurant Depot will open up a world of possibilities to you.
