Never heard of them. They're making medical claims on the front page which is a "no no" to begin with.

I would comment on the fact that they offer the other herb we're trying to disassociate with kava. That alone would cause me to turn away. I'm a purist though, and no disrespect to those who choose to consume it.

Be careful, but if you do buy from them always let everyone know how it went!

gokava.com/. Looks awsome.. Lots of choices
The site looks good, but I'm always a little wary when they are scrimpy about their contact info. The phone number they give is a 916 prefix, which I think is Sacramento CA. But they don't say anything about them and where they operate, so I guess they could just be a re-seller of another seller.

They say email them for best response to questions, but they don't give you an email address. :confused:

[EDIT]
Plus they don't participate as a vendor on this forum. :(

This is a sister company of **kra**m.com, which I have ordered from (UEI Extract) and it was BUNK. Do NOT order from these people.

I just ordered some of the 'five star'. I'll let you know how it turns out. I have high hopes - I believe that this is from Klin Kava - also the same people who provide Wow! to nakamal@home. They describe this as micronized from green kava - which is the same process described for Klin. I also noted from an ozzie forum post that the proprietor of Klin Kava had a product that he called five star some years ago. Here's a vid of the fellow

I was curious so I wrote to Klin Kava today:

"Hi,
Saw a video you made. Thanks for doing that.
I’m in San Diego CA. Do you sell your products retail or only wholesale?
Would it be possible to get a price list?

"Hi Bob

We only wholesale. If your are considering orders under 100kg the freight from here to the US will be uneconomical for you. We have many different mixtures of powders but the main and best seller is TNN for $26-50/kg and Instant Kava for $135/kg.

Hope this helps

John"

Maybe we could start a buyers club and do bulk orders!! ;)

I would volunteer for quality control and distribution!!!

Haha thats awesome. I have asked for quotes from distributors in the past but never gotten a reply. Shame that under 100kg is uneconomical.

They just put Billie Jean on in the resort lounge…if this isnt 'dancin' kava' then i dont know what is. There goes the tiny amount of credibility & style i had.

"hey check out the 6'3 aussie dancing to MJ"

"yeah were watching him…quick move the pool table"

So, first notes on 'five star':

I've never seen Kava like this before. It comes as a big cylinder of compressed powder -have to scrape and crush it in order to get it loose enough to scrape. The grind is medium-fine I would say, and very consistent. I started with 2 rounded tbs, and a ten minute squeeze in warm water. I would normally use 3 heaping tbs for my evening brew.

The resulting brew is thinner than usual, and waaaaay milder tasting. This was the first batch of brew that I wasn't disgusted by. It's not tasty by any stretch, but it had far less after-taste than anything else I've had. A single swig of water, and my mouth was feeling fine.

The effects came on fairly quick - I would say this is a pretty balanced Kava, with a slight emphasis on the Kavain side.

Personally, I need to try a kava a few times before i get a clear sense of its properties, so I'll update after my next brew, which I will probably step up to 3 tbs.
