03 — HeritageThe Story

A flavor
fifty-five years
in the making.

In 1971, a creamery worker at Meadow Gold blended three island fruits — passion fruit, orange, guava — and quietly invented one of the most beloved flavors in the Pacific.

Every kid in Hawai‘i grew up with POG. Every kitchen had a carton. Every plate lunch came with one. It is one of the rarest things in food & beverage — a regional flavor with universal recognition.

In 2026, POG Spirits — an independent spirits brand created in partnership with Meadow Gold (the islands' beverage house since 1897 and inventor of POG in 1971) — does something no one had done before: brings POG into the bottle.
