Hey all, I am a fairly new to kava. I bought a sampler form KWK and really enjoyed it. I got loa waka, vula waka, and Borogu. Borogu has been great for doing crafts or yard work. I really enjoyed loa waka headiness but not so much the sleepiness of it. I wanted to try and find something stronger and maybe with less body/heaviness. In an effort to save some money I am looking for recommendations? I plan to keep on with the samplers as money allows but in the mean time I am looking for a good Saturday night.
Looking for a real heady kava. Any suggestions?

Kumakua and Moi are the headiest kavas I've had
GHK Moi or GHK Kumakua. Squanch Fijian waka or Lewena or a nice Tongan.

N@H Solomon Island. Very clean on the acetone test. It's so heady that I typically blend it with other kavas. It's my go to pure energy kava.

Mo'i is my absolute go to for daytime heady kavas. It's heady but it puts you in a really good mood. I actually had Mo'i blended with Mahakea today and that was a great pairing. Highly recommended.

I second moi and kumakua. Kula from BKH is a pretty good kava for the daytime in that it is quite mild but very pleasant. There are heady kavas that you have to be careful with because they can get you foggy. Kumakua is probably the ideal daytime kava, with moi being a little more floaty. Kula is kind of like its own thing. It doesn't sedate or stimulate me. It's just this little feeling of pleasure. It's almost completely in my mood and nothing else. Kumakua and moi can sometimes give me real energy and excitement. All 3 are wonderful choices for daytime.

Yeah the instant puts me to sleep too, but the medium grind for some reason gives me energy. Not sure why. Strange. I actually started a thread about it. http://kavaforums.com/forum/threads/difference-in-effects-of-instant-vs-medium-grind-kava.11587/
I love instant but my wallet doesn't, I'd drink it everyday if I could
So medium it is..

Well idk about worse than normal, it's just a stronger taste than some others.

The new batch of Squanch waka is pretty smooth in comparison to the last batch !!!! The last batch was strong tasting because it was strong waka. @Squanch72 I think it has something to do with how they processed it this time, maybe taking more of the base root during grinding? Drinking it right now as a matter of fact. Bula!Squanch Waka is very heady for me. It gets heavier if you drink too much but in moderation it gives me a good boost and pick me up. The taste on the other hand...
