Fresh Frozen Molokai Awa Root
- Thread starter Kavafied
- Start date
Puu O hoku ranch started growing kava a while back, they used to sell the powdered root but now they only sell the fresh root. I remember when they first started to plant kava, Jim Henderson was in charge of that. They have a real nice farm. Thanks for sharing this. Aloha.

It's only gotta stay frozen to avoid spoilage, thaw the amount you intend on using and put the rest back in the freezer. Fresh frozen that I've had does thaw quite a bit in transit, but was still cold and unspoiled. Keep in mind that it takes something like 5 or 10 lbs of fresh kava to equal 1 pound of dry kava. So if you try to use your usual dry kava measurements/doses, you'll make a very weak drink.

Can you give us an idea of what the price and shipping are? It's for a pound, no? I would love to try fresh kava if I could afford it.

here is an email I got from him today:
Depends how much it weighs, I will have to pack it up, weigh then call fed ex with weight and dimensions and they give me a quote. I sent only 3 lbs to GA, fed-ex freight was approximately $60.
In August we had Nene & Mo'oula, presently we have only Nene for 3 weeks, then we will have only Hanakapi'ai for 3-4 weeks, then later another variety.
Since August, we have started a policy, for us to make it worth our time and effort to pack it up, we set a minimum of 6 lbs. to make it worth the effort, so unless you purchase 6 + lbs. we will not be able to send.

Hmmm.... Maybe a good way to celebrate May 10th
When you buy fresh frozen from Root of Happiness, you're buying Pu'u o Hoku farm kava.

I had a feeling I didn't want to assume tho. A lot easier than having to by 6 pounds at a time for the farm to send it
