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 with input by Mike Sr. and had a lot of help along the way, including Mark Noland (3-D imaging) and Kevin Kidney (font). Holden Westland took it the rest of the way and VOILA! This mug was first issued in an open edition honey brown in April 2011, followed by limited edition runs in Iron Oxide Brown and Blue.
