    Hanakapi Ai or Blend, you decide.

    You know I have a hard time with the word "choose" when it comes to kava :LOL:. @Gourmet Hawaiian Kava Your most recent harvest of Hanakapi Ai is (at least for me) remarkably balanced and is on par with a strong batch of boronguru. Even though it's one of your "Special edition" newsletter...

    GREAT NEWS from Vanuatu!!

    Thanks for the link Henry, I'll look more into this later tonight. (y) I'm interested to see what measures are being taken to prevent adulteration or intercept said adulteration before kava leaves the island. ::shrug2::

    Food and Drink "Rules"

    Just as our forum 'dude said, nauseousness from kava might be mitigated by eating a light meal but I don't know if I can attest to that because it's so rare when I do actually experience nausea from kava. Regardless it shouldn't hurt to try...but as a small reminder; kava is often more potent...

    20 years of kava use

    I wish I would've seen this sooner. Thank you @nabanga for detailing your history living on the pacific islands. I thoroughly enjoyed reading over those first hand accounts, and though I already had an idea of how their culture operates you've still managed to give me generous insight I wouldn't...

    what is your weekly kava budget?

    @Ryan Hovis Wait there's a budget to kava?::amirite:: Hahaha, I don't normally keep track of what goes out of pocket when it comes to kava because often I just look at what's left and say "Hmmm I'm starting to run out...time to make another purchase". If I was to give a rough estimate I'd say...

    Vanautu Cyclone: Aftermath and Recovery

    Edit- @Deleted User I can't thank you enough for providing the previous updates. As you already know this forum is one of the most substantial resources for kava related info. As such this thread may garner a lot of views and if there happens to be a kava forums relief fund posted at some point in the...

    Category 5 Cyclone Pam dangerously close to Vanuatu

    Edit- I accidently removed the top portion of my post so I'll just leave it as it is now. I'll keep the people of Vanuatu and anyone within the grasps of the typhoon in my thoughts and prepare some grog in hopes that it'll send even the tiniest bit of positivity their way (kava is the...

    Micronized Kava Review Mahakea - Micronized

    (y)on the review. Bert I have to say it always puts me in a good place reading reviews whether it's after kava, before or just browsing period. This is especially the case when I'm drinking the exact same kava as the one in said review because the compare and contrasts that follow are always fun...

    Time for a nightcap....

    Hahaha, yeah the pitchforks won't be needed here, see my minor edit. So in short I'm not exactly upset because after all it's the first time I've had this happen. (y)

    Time for a nightcap....

    Yeah, "What a twist!" came to mind when I was about to toss a tbl spoon into a glass of water. Either way, no use crying over spilled milk...I mean either way it's boroguru and I'd be hard pressed to say I'm "dissatisfied" with my purchase. ::shrug2:: I'm also aware that these things can/will...

    Tragedies that could have been prevented by Kava

    GIVE ME A BIG WET KAVAFORUMS FRIDAY SMOOCH! :kiss:::uhhuhhz:: As a side note....I'll probably have nightmares after glancing this pic....and I'm not sure if kava could've even averted this monumental tragedy. I mean imagine this "Hey mom I'm coming to visit but it might be rather late at night...

    Awesome thread @nemo !(y) Chris's kava really is something isn't it? I've yet to be disappointed in any manner after innumerable orders've been placed and even more so with the updated micro, no grit and no bull****. ::amirite:: BULA! Oh and @shakas , your knack for photo-shop is excellent...

    Kava Preparation Mr. Kava Machine?

    Wow how inventive and imaginative you are @Steve Mariotti (small edit) and @punatic . :wideyed: I especially love how this's sounding like a project in the works and not an idea being bounced off a committee board or what have you. ::awesomesmiles:: I'm a tinge embarrassed to admit that I...

    Product Alert - Starwest Botanicals

    First of all I want to thank you @Deleted User for being such a kava-trailblazer. (y) Sometimes an offensive approach is the only way to tackle such matters (at least to bring them in the limelight). Yes it's understandable that a cultivar may be accidentally adulterated without their intent but imho...

    Not Good

    @DirTJerz I as well ran into a similar conundrum of sorts...similar because the nature of my experience was debilitating. To cut to the chase I'd been consuming a certain kava at the time and in happenstance that specific cultivar was found to exhibit characteristics of a tudei. This also...
