Based on the Tiki-Ti logo Tiki which was inspired by the Kon-Tiki Montreal menu cover Tiki from 1958. The design idea was formulated by Sven Kirsten and Ray Buhen and had a lot of help along the way, including Mark Noland and Kevin Kidney. Holden Westland took it the rest of the way and VOILA! The Blue edition was issued shortly after the open edition and was limited to 130 mugs. A second limited edition in Iron Oxide Brown was sold through Tiki Farm a short time later.
