Trader Sam's Grog Grotto Shrunken Zombie Head Mug - Fourth Edition

in 12 collections

This is a mug shaped like a blue shrunken zombie head with white stitches on eyes & mouth. Medium dark blue matte glaze with black wash. Designed by Tim Wollweber. Used to serve the Shrunken Zombie Head cocktail on the Sam's Enchanted Tiki Bar menu (although "shrunken" was removed last year from Disney descriptions because of cultural sensitivity reasons and it is now just referred to as a "Zombie"), made with "reserve and aged rums, tropical juices, falernum and cinnamon". It was issued in September of 2022 for Trader Sam's Grog Grotto at the Disney Polynesian Resort in Orlando, Florida.
