Kava Enthusiast
I recently purchased some rahmwanger from myjadesa prices are in US. Cant figure out how to do a review here in the other suppliers section so Ill copy and paste what I posted on r/kava
I purchased Sakau from myjadesa. First time buying from a un-verified source.
Shipping & Packaging:
To my surprise the kava was shipped from Pohnpei, FSM. Pretty cool getting from such a small island and direct. It came packaged in a Ziploc Bag and a sticker on the bag. Not the best packaging by any means.
Appearance and Scent:
Pretty fined grind. smells and looks like a Hawaiian kava which makes me excited.
The prepared grog is pretty light kava, quite oily. Used roughly about 1/3 cup to 40 oz water. (I dont really measure either of these but fairly accurate guess)
Taste:
More peppery then the looks and smells. Taste is in between a Hawaiian and Vanuatu kava. Very drinkable
Onset:
Not an immediate onset like some kavas but settles in nicely around 20 mins after shelling.
Effects:
I am about 3 shells in about now and find the effects extremely pleasant and unique. Very well balanced kava a little more "heady" but no noticeable edginess yet. I have been drinking kava for over 2 years from almost all the popular vendors. Out of all the kava I tried this one feels most like Papa Kea from GHK.
