Usual disclaimer: My reviews suck. I've tried this a few times with excellent results but I wanted to wait til I did a full session before reviewing. Little did I know it would only require one more shell to complete my session (Leftovers for tonight!) It's a pretty fine grind--I was able to...

@Gourmet Hawaiian Kava Any idea how much longer I need to make my stash last? ::tanoa::

I prepped this the other night and then read it was a heady kava. I'm really not a heady-kava kinda woman, so I tried it early last evening. I liked the results and finished my session quite early. To me, 'Ono is less heady and more of a general mood elevator. No noticeable affects on last...

I have my smaller bottles now and want to get rid of these jelly jars full of acetone. Hazardous waste dump? Pour it on a weed I've been trying to kill?

I probably won't have time to do a full review of this tonight (may be a blessing--my reviews suck!) For starters, I really like the grind. It's a little coarser which makes it easier to knead. Tonight I used a knee-high nylon in the interest of speed, but I really like the nice strainer that...

I had some time to myself today thought maybe some kava would help me push through a couple hours worth of housework. I hate housework. The first shell got me through mopping the kitchen floor. Better do another shell before I tackle the bathroom. I felt energetic and felt myself smiling the...

We're looking mainly for current samples from non-certified vendors on the web. Previously certified vendors are listed here: http://www.truekava.com/vendors.html. If you have samples to submit, let me know and I can give you the address--all it takes is 1/4 cup!! If you have any questions...

I've been using Opihikao as a bedtime kava--it can be really good for winding down the mind at the end of a day. This morning I did a shell to try to fall back asleep after the phone rang--thanks Walgreens, I knew my prescription was ready!! When the time is right, Opihikao is plenty heady with...

Took a jar along when we went fishing yesterday. Was already in a relaxed state of mind and the extract just helped to complete the good mood. I was trying out the Rose/Saffron version--it numbs your mouth but tastes pretty good. And on a side note--I'd be happy if I could make my breath smell...

I've had this for a few days. Had a nice afternoon session on Sunday but wanted to wait to review til I had a lengthier session. Tonight I had four shells spaced out over the evening. Took a break after 2 and had some roasted brussel sprouts. YUM. Another shell at 8:30 and another at 9. I...

Talk about euphoria!! We were going out for dinner tonight so I asked Mike to make up my grog and bring it along (he was picking me up at the bus stop). I maybe had 3 slurps before the restaurant--I was feeling good at that point. Had a small steak salad and wasn't sure the remaining kava would...

What I've been doing with the micronized is to put some lemon juice in a cup, add the kava and mix it till everything is good and wet. Then I add ginger ale (or more recently tart cherry juice) and stir til blended. I find if I just mix it (or worse yet, shake it), the drink has a head (like a...

I glugged two little cups before having my dinner. It's mild, but I still needed to mix it with something. Wow. My head is humming (a lullaby perhaps?) and my eyelids are growing heavy. I'll stop drinking it here and will take a little more if I feel like I need it before bed. Prior to...

Additional Review Comments: I took one this morning to minimize the stress of a long commute. It seemed to work pretty well so I had a few more during my work day. I was able to focus well, even though I was working on some back-burner tasks (the ones I usually procrastinate on). I also felt...

Additional Review Comments: Very effective. I still need to get my timing straight--It was the weekend so it was a bit easier to find myself with an empty stomach. I might have to start taking this before I leave work and stopping earlier in the evening. Hopefully I will be able to fall...

I've done so much reading here, but I keep forgetting where some information is stored. I have BKH Vanuatu Instant Green Kava. Is this something I can drink more than one cup of? And from a dermopathy perspective, should I strain it? Thanks all, and happy holidays. Day 1 done.

I'm new to kava--so far I've tried the Yogi Tea, the KavaKava candy, Kalm Concentrate and BulaKava's Instant. I'm aiming to transition from alcohol to kava. I drink to transition into sleep. So far, I haven't noticed much of an effect from the kava and I'm guessing it's the reverse tolerance. I...
