Batch: 4
Tasting Notes:
When you taste the kava you will notice a slight mouth numbness and goes down very smooth. For us the effects started a bit slower than the last batch at about 2 hours. Other drinkers have noted that this kava leans heavy.
Historically this kava has been very potent. The mix of kavalactones in the chemotype and the higher percentage of total kavalactones leads to a nice potentcy not often found in kava from Fiji.
Everyone's tolerance is different. We can have different experiences too! Please let us know how it worked for you in your review. Kava also has a reverse tolerance. So if it hasn't worked for you yet, try it again. If you have any questions at all, please reach out on our Instagram or Facebook page.
Each batch is hand picked, harvested and shipped to us immediately in small batches. Every batch is going to be a bit different than the last. If this one isn't for you, give the next a try and it may be the winner you were looking for!
About this Kava:
We sourced this 100% noble waka kava from the island of Koro in Fiji. This high quality noble Kava is selected from plants at least 5 years in age that have been organically grown on the island of Koro.
The Fijian WAKA (100% Lateral Root) Kava powder, is derived from the smaller roots that extend from the main root-stock. These roots are higher in Kavalactones.
Batch 3 CHEMOTYPE:
Batch 3 TOTAL KAVALACTONE:
***Our previous lab tests showed between 10% and 14% kavalactones for this cultivar. It still has an incredible strength however the kavalactone content is much more accurate.
