As de Old People Would Say

ADOPWS began as a single book—a heartfelt tribute to my great-grandmother and the timeless sayings she shared. Rooted in Virgin Islands expressions, humor, and pearls of wisdom, it captured the spirit of the Caribbean elders who shaped us. Today, ADOPWS continues to grow into a vibrant brand that celebrates Virgin Islands pride through culture, tradition, flavor, and storytelling. From books and bags to our new signature rum balls, ADOPWS is more than a collection of sayings—it’s a living reflection of who we are, where we come from, and the legacy I plan to carry forward.
