Cheers to

the nature of Tiki

Cheers to Tiki spirits The Tiki trend started in the 20th century as a result of Polynesian-styled restaurants and bars booming in the United States, which soon spread all over the world. Great examples in the cocktail industry were: Don the Beachcomber and Trader Vic’s, which still inspire us today.

Historically, Tiki was the first man on earth created by the gods in Māori mythology which is a great part of the Polynesian culture. ­Polynesian culture is closely linked to nature, in particular the ­Pacific.

The ­Polynesians were renowned for their seafaring and navigation skills and explored a large part of the islands in the Pacific Ocean. A lot of the ancient Hawaiian gods looked like natural occurrences, due to their strong connection with nature. For them, this explained that also the flowing of lava from volcanoes was part of the Earth’s creation. They had great respect for nature and all living creatures, unfortunately the later generations were less respectful. Since those ancient times a lot has changed and in the last decades we gained our respect for nature and the Earth’s well-being back.

TIKI DECO Whether it’s the exuberant, ­playful designs or ­summer feeling they­­create, one thing is certain: its huge ­popularity means our Libbey Tiki range is set to keep on growing!

The Tiki Mixed Gods, Cooler and Rocks; the Split, ­Mai-Tai and Coupe; the Pineapple, ceramics mug and ceramics tumbler… every last ­member of the Tiki range is ­beloved by guests everywhere. And not just for summer drinks. ­Nowadays folks are enjoying Tiki all year round. So what better reason for two fun and handy new ­additions? Here’s to the Kahiko Mai Tai and Kahiko ­Zombie! The legendary Tiki ­bartender, ­Daniele Dalla Pola, helped us ­develop the iconic ­Kahiko ­decorations to reflect the rich ­traditions and ­culture of the Pacific Islands.

Kahiko Mai Tai draws on the ­traditional TAPA patterns of islands like ­Tonga, Samoa and Fiji where its seen on everything from cloths to traditional ­tattoos.

Kahiko Zombie plays that typical two-faced Tiki trick with a sensuous, ­ukulele-playing wahine (Hawaiian women) on one side and a scary shrunken head on the ­other. But no matter how you look at it, it’s the perfect way to serve a ­cocktail filled with Pacific promise.

Kick starting odd habits KICKING BACK THE FOOTPRINT Socially-responsible entrepreneurship, environmentally-friendly products and zero-waste projects. These phrases, which have become increasingly important over the last decade, obviously all refer to the footprint we leave on the planet.

As awareness spreads, it’s affecting consumers and businesses alike, and the bartending sector is no exception. Initially, this mind-shift created a niche market, where businesses could differentiate themselves from the ­competition by reducing their waste. But addressing sustainability issues has now become a necessity. Something the consumer expects in one way or another from any business, including a bar.

So let’s start kicking back our footprint!

KEEP IT BLUE Our oceans and seas are the lifeblood of our planet and our own existence. They take up some 75% of the Earth’s surface, produce more than half the oxygen in the atmosphere and absorb the most carbon from it.

So it’s important we protect and take good care of the ecosystems living in the sea.

Unfortunately, we’re not doing that at the moment and nothing illustrates this more clearly than “the great pacific ­garbage patch”, containing around 1.8 trillion individual pieces of plastic and weighing ­ some 80,000 tonnes.

With a surface area about 3 times that of the France, it’s the biggest plastic ­concentration in our oceans. This is one of reasons we don’t want to use plastic straws anymore in the drinks industry. It’s all about reusability and avoiding material that takes too long to decompose.

Keep it blue, people!

THE COLOR IS ON FIRE Fire and its transmitting heat are essential to the creation of glass. By combining sand, soda and calcium carbonate under a great amount of heat, we can create liquid glass that we can mould into all kinds of different shapes.

Recently, Libbey installed a new oven that reuses its heat to greatly decrease the energy needs. This is a new technique in the glass industry and we’re proud that Libbey is the first manufacturer to use it on a grand-scale.

THINK GLOBALLY, ACT LOCALLY In recent years, the phrase “Think globally, act locally” has been echoing around the world. When you focus on your local environment, you help build a thriving sustainable community. Simply using cocktails and ­ garnishes from local producers, for example, has multiple benefits: you will shrink your CO2 footprint, due to shorter transportation distances. You will likely ­discover some new, high quality products. You will certainly help create a tight community, where everyone benefits from helping each other. And you will differentiate yourself from the competition in a really positive way.

So get out there and see just what your region has to offer – you’ll be ­pleasantly surprised!

What your neighbours see as waste, you can use for your benefit. In The Netherlands, there is a saying: “A good neighbour can be worth more than a distant friend”.

Great examples have been made over the years of cocktail bars using the waste of neighbouring businesses as ingredients for their cocktails. Yogurt and cheese manufacturers see whey as waste, as it’s a by-product of their manufacturing process.

Or take left-over pastries in a ­bakery that closes at 6pm: instead of the ­bakery throwing them away, you could buy them at a discount and serve them in your bar for your guests.

By using the power of our neighbours, you can help the environment and have financial benefit at the same time.

THE TIKI CLAN In 1933, inspired by a trip to the South ­Pacific, Ernest Gantt opened a Polynesian-themed bar in Hollywood. The original “Don the ­Beachcomber” soon became famous for ­serving colorful and potent cocktails, starting a craze that spread across the US restaurant industry.

Though by the ’70s this trend had gone from kitschy to tacky, the real Tiki culture is now ­firmly back in the cocktail scene. Best known for rum drinks, Tiki glasses are perfect for ­recreating classic tequila-based cocktails.

Tiki and tequila are alive and kicking – welcome home, guys!

COLORFUL AND TASTEFUL EXOTICISM These exotic cocktails are also known for their a ­ mazing garnishing, such as flaming torches, flower leis and bright colors, that creative bartenders serve in weird and wonderful glasses. These strange-looking items are inspired by the traditional Maori totems and ­represent faces of Polynesian Gods. A new wave of themed ­cocktail bars recently popping up in major cities is ­reviving historic cocktails and Tiki is becoming a very popular choice. It’s no coincidence that today you’ll find weekly Tiki-nights at bars all over the world.
