    11 year waka

    Please forgive the thread location as it would not let me post in the product review section. Mods feel free to move this thread and grant me access to post in the review section :) This batch is rather tasty. The effects however leave something to be desired. I posted my impression of the 11...

    Need a "go to"....

    So as many of my recent posts revealed my go to for a long while was Kava Boy. It was a balanced Tongan with decent potency and a great price. After shipping my total was around 78 for two lbs. This kava filled a particular role. I could knead up a batch if I wanted but I would primarily toss...

In the recent past I placed an order on a Monday morning around 7 a.m. which would be 4 a.m. Oregon time. I received notice that a shipping...

    R.I.P. David Bowie

    David Bowie has succumbed to cancer. It is truly a sad day. He was one of my favorite artists and a musical genius. Like another favorite artist of mine -Warren Zevon- cancer ended his life far too soon. Now Mr. Bowie IS the starman waiting in the sky. "He'd like to come and meet us but he...

    Powdered Kava Review Loa Waka Fijian Kava

    So I bought this kava having tried all the other offerings from Kalm. I was of course expecting great things. The grind was medium fine with larger pieces dispersed throughout. This was prepared in my usual fashion which consists of 1 cup prepared for me and my girlfriend kneaded reluctantly for...

    Florida, fishing and kava wishing

    So I'm heading down to Florida at the end of this month for ten whole days of relaxation, fishing and some definite kava kava consumption. I need some recommendations though. I was thinking that four varieties would probably suffice. Two regular/medium/medium fine grind root, two micro. On both...

    Next big thing?

    Hey Judd, I was wondering if you guys had anything planned for your next big kava; i.e. a new release. I was also wondering if you had any clue as to if/when the nambawan would be back in stock. I could have sent you a private message but figured I'd give other a place to ask you questions lol...

    Will I get "Stoned" tonight?

    So.....I have been drinking a lot of 11 year waka and borogu from Kalm lately. The 11 year is very cerebral and not much in way of body. The borogu has more in terms of body sedation effects but not by much. Combined they are very nice indeed. However, I have been yearning for a heavy duty...

    My next order....YOU DECIDE!

    I am torn folks. I am on a budget and need to select my kava purchases carefully. I was considering picking up a pound of Tongan and a pound of Stone from NAH. On the flip side I could afford a pound of Boroguru and a half pound of 11 year waka from BKH. So, I receive more by weight with the NAH...

    Borogu

    Well I just squeezed up a batch. One cup of kava to three cups water. I am also making a seconds run from the same kava with two cups of warmer water. It looks and smells nice. Like coffee with a little cream. A slight greenish golden hue is also present. Smells earthly and chalky. Like the soil...

    Lecithin question?

    Hey everyone, just wondering where everyone sources their lecithin. I know I can find it on the internet however I would like to potentially find some locally. I'm not convinced it is even necessary though since I would just give my Melo Melo a dash of whole milk for the entire batch and it...

    Recommendations

    Hey everybody! I was hoping to get some recommendations as to who to order my next bit of kava from. The last kava I have tried was Melo Melo and koniak from Bula. They were both very potent and rocked my world several times. I am wanting to get a 1/2 lbs of kava that is more...
