I was a lurker for a couple of years before the site went down, and now I'm over the moon that it's back! I live in the not-so-tikified city of Minneapolis, where believe it or not there is an amazing group of tikiphiles. I got interested in tiki through exotica music about 10-12 years ago, and since then I've really gotten into the drinks and the aesthetic in a big way. It was Tiki Central that led me to discovering the only VINTAGE tiki bar I've ever been to, the Mai Tai Lounge in Omaha, Nebraska. I recently purchased rum bottle number 50 for my ever-increasing collection, and I really enjoy making tiki cocktails at home using great rums, homemade syrups, etc. I'm working my way through the Grog Log list to simulate joining the Loyal Order of the Drooling Bastard at the Tonga Hut, and have about 25 drinks out of 78 left to make. Someday I hope to build a home bar but I haven't gotten that far yet, nor do I really have the room haha. I love collecting rums, mugs, exotica records, and anything else tiki I can get my hands on (which isn't easy up here in the great frozen north). It's SO awesome to have Tiki Central back, and I look forward with chatting with everyone!
