Getting Ready for my Next Purchase

So, I've tried KWK's micronized borongoru and Squanch's Fiji Waka, along with a couple other strains, and I'm getting ready to invest in my next purchase. I tried the Papa, which I now call "Big Papa" because it thoroughly knocked me on my ass, but I'm looking for a general daytime kava, as I usually make a batch in the morning and drink it after my coffee. I prefer traditional prep, but I'm not opposed to micronized. Any suggestions? I'm so stoked about kava that I feel like I want to order a pound of EVERYTHING, but, clearly, that's not feasible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I trust you guys to steer me in the right direction.

Since you have tried a Fiji and a Vanuatu root why not try a Tongan root?
It gets more deep with strains and Waka or Lawena but when I first got into kava I liked to try by country.

Fu'u from Bula Kava House is a good daytime kava, but it looks like they're sold out right now. I find most Waka's to be good day-time kavas as well. Generally I find anything Hawaiian or Fijian to be more daytime appropriate.

Mo'i.

I had to speak in front of a large group the other morning at about 8:30. I started my day with Mo'i at 6:30, continued with more at 8 AM, got the speaking over with, had another table spoon at about 9, and a shot right before lunch, then a couple more table spoons before the drive home from work. I actually find it helps me focus but also makes me all smiley.

A close second in my opinion is the Pouni Ono that Kalm with Kava offers. I feel it is a little more "buzzy" than mo'i, which I like. It doesn't overly sedate you and it actually keeps me quite perky. It also gives me a gnarly case of the smileys.

From the instant selection there's always BKH Instant Green. Might be more expensive but really does the job and good for daytime.

I agree with the Pouni Ono. It relieves the stress with a nice mellow edge. You may act slightly silly, but you'll be productive and have a good start to your day.
