Agreed. Kava is by far better on its own. We had tried green chiles on everything else since moving to New Mexico, so we had to try a one-off with kava.
Unsweetened Silk Coconut Milk is also good with kava.
I've drunk quite a few batches of both Stone and Wow. Chemotypes only take you so far in knowing how a kava will affect you. My wife and I most enjoy cultivars that are balanced. We like an initial euphoric sense that morphs into body relaxation. There are lots of good kava cultivars that work this way. Back to Stone: we lived in south Florida for over a decade and liked the overnight delivery from NAH. We don't drink Stone much anymore because it feels too heavy on the "2" part of the chemotype to us. Overall, the experience is a little too intense and can lead to some difficulty sleeping. At least for us. Wow is potent, but overall more pleasant. And, for us, enhances sleep.
away via USPS and their shipping is always prompt. I do agree about what you say concerning chemotypes, however its a good starting point otherwise its just a pure roll of the dice on whats in the bag.
