Unless one has Proof other wise... As of June 23, 2009 Okolehao has not been legally distilled and distributed publicly in over 30 years. Not even the legally available Okolehao of 30 years ago was truly legitimate as it semi curtailed U.S. code by not being distilled within the geographical area of its origin as it was then distilled in California. Legally and publicly available distilled Okolehao does not exist unless held in private reserve.
