Going through some old photos, I came across a great one of @rockdoggydog (RIP) at the @plantation.rum booth at @miamirumfestival 2016. Many folks are missing his humor and positive spirit even more right now. This calls for another #rockyyeh toast tonight. #plantationrum #rumfest #rum #stigginsfancy

Happy anniversary to @tikiunderground - great to see you’re making the best of a bad situation... Keep the faith! ........ Posted @withregram • @tikiunderground Today was going to be our epic third anniversary celebration that we’ve been planning all year with 4 musical acts and a cool Eekum Bookum mug release and new tiki cocktails featuring our sponsors Western Reserve Distillers and Pusser’s Rum. Most of all it was our chance to see our ohana all together, which is the reason we opened this joint. We want everyone to be safe and healthy but damnit we’re bummed that we can’t see you today. We will go live from our home bar at 5pm to say aloha and hope you will join us in a virtual toast. Our celebration is currently rescheduled for September 19, and we will have some surprises for you. To support both Eekum Bookum and us, we’re releasing more of our third anniversary tiki mugs in our cool online store, which will start shipping by the end of the month. We will be in touch with a safe option for pick up, or we’re happy to hold them until we re-open.

We’ve got more merch coming, including some new and special items in the next couple days. We’ll also be sharing soon how you can directly help our staff during this time, including through some special fundraiser items.
