My loss indeed. I love being mystified after a few solid doses of Hanakapi Ai' Kava. Yes, kava my fellow kavateers. I also like being "Bewildered" and "Bemused". But I'm intrigued by your shameless promotion of this fine literary classic. So I'm going to make an effort to hunt it down and put it in my "bulging library" of audio books. I'm going to start with the local library ..... Nope, only Mosquito Coast which is highly rated. They seem to have every book by Paul Theroux except Milroy the Magician. Where did you get your copy? You know, the harder it is to get something ... the more you want it.
I think of the stoney feeling as heaviness
Now that I think about it, that kind of makes sense. But I always associated a heavy Kava with a couch-locking muscle relaxing kind of feeling
Guess it's now ok to talk about rectums here??
Most kavas do a bit of each though don't they so we're probably better off just describing a kavas effects as they happen for each one.
I call that a balanced kava
Yes but calling the vast majority of kavas "balanced" doesn't really help anyone does it? This Hanakapi Ai is balanced as in I'm getting some mental effects from it but it's mostly heavy. Sorry, not wanting to be awkward
True enough but many people are looking for a predominant effect. Sort of like our reviews where you rate how heady AND how heavy the kava is. Then people who want a 'heady' kava are going to lean towards the higher shell ratings for that effect. I personally find some 'heady' kavas too heady for me, that's why I like to blend. I can to some degree control how balanced my kava is by selectively blending a good heady and a good heavy together.Yes but calling the vast majority of kavas "balanced" doesn't really help anyone does it?

Yes I suppose. Even if I find something balanced I will describe it as balanced tending to heavy or heady, gives a bit more information at least.
Yes there is! I know a kava guru who swears it's true!
why do you keep poking the bear? People complain about said guru, then bring it up again...I don't get it, let it be, that was so last weekYes there is! I know a kava guru who swears it's true!

No offense to TK and all his hard work but who cares? You don't need TK certification (Speaking from a member's perspective) If your kava is good, the word will spread around here man, that's the ultimate "seal of approval" this whole TK certification is over rated.
