What's new

Have I done this right? What now?

Your limited effects from the root could just be from the kava you are using, i suggest trying some tried and tested kava from BKH or KBR instead, your prep seems good so you should be getting stronger effects. I sometimes think people overestimate reverse tolerance.

last time i ordered it took 12 days, so it should be about that, you also sometimes get really unlucky and are charged a £13 customs fee.

May the Brew be with you
The Malekula Magic is probably the weakest Kava I have ever tested. It used to be a very good Kava two years ago, but I am disappointed from the last three orders (2x VKS, 1x GKE - which is stuff from VKS). VKS seems to sell crap!

Wow, fair enough. I shall approach the koniak from bkh with caution then lol. I'll go for 6 tbsp to a pint of water. See how I get on. Be interesting to see the difference.

Still a bit new to this myself, I'm not familiar with Malekula Magic but have tried Koniak and drink daily Boroguru. I was drinking 6 tbsp at a time, but am now usually down to 4. My experience with Koniak... I only subbed in 1 or 2 tbsp at times for Boroguru in my mix, and it was seriously way more potent. I found that I couldn't drink that mix daily either. I may just be super sensitive to the Koniak, or it could be the root. Just wanted to share. I'm sure you find the Boroguru is awesome, and I'd love to hear how your experience goes with the Koniak.

Well, I do keep revisiting this thread, it's kinda like a journal of a newbie lol, but I will definitely update with my experiences.

Jay, I consider myself a newbie (or close enough to it). Checking in and learning from your experiences. Glad for your posts.

Well, as my order from bkh hasn't arrived yet, I had a mooch through my cupboards to see what I had. I had about 15g of waka which I have toss and washed, 3 valerian root tablets and 3 yogi kava tea bags lol. So I'm hoping that might relax me a bit. (If I don't puke from the toss and wash lol)

Btw that post isn't a complaint about bkh, I'm not expecting the order yet anyway (just to clarify)

Train by day, Kava by night....All day
I think you'll be thoroughly impressed with your BKH order. Judd puts out a really good product. Boroguru is my everyday kava and Koniak is my "knockout" kava so to speak. Be careful no to have any early morning responsibilities after a heavy night of Koniak....you won't want to wake up haha.

Itssss here!!! I'm going to have 2 tsps of instant green now, and going to watch a movie with some koniak tonight!!!
Packaging is very professional looking.
Will give my input on bkh stuff tonight. It's midday in England now by the way.
