Cinnamon. I add cinnamon when I blend the kava. More palatable and no nausea. At least for me.
Ready to try kava, but hesitant

I like the hard candy Gin Gins. The chewy version is way too chewy. Enjoy!

Kava keeps me going.
I love the taste of kava. Ive never felt nauseous from kava. The only thing that makes me nauseous is @Capitán Bastos' avatar. No offense to the Capitan intended.

Great, now I have to try that one too. I do love the all is well feeling that kava gives me. It really helps me to look past the small things that don't matter as much as I sometimes think they do.

No offense taken. How long have you been with the FAX Network?

Had 2 shells tonight! Still amazed at how strong this is... Thank you, Cactus Kava! I was starving so I had a rice cake with peanut butter, and cayenne pepper... And had my second shell and still getting good feelings...
Exploring this is really fun! I'm trying to go slow and respect it... Love the feeling! Kava can replace a lot of other vices for me, I think...
This weekend will be a new twist...I'm going to see what it's like a little earlier in the day... I've only tried the Lawena, but there's still Ono and Eva to check out... I don't mind the taste of kava at all...but I'm Irish (wink)...
Really having fun with this so far - I think it's going to be an interesting adventure...
How long have you all been enjoying this stuff?
How does it change for you over time?

Good questions... We actually did a census a while back: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1HGMQkmQ4b3tPelW5usePa98aJvzpWaDc1dAS8QRAPhc/viewanalytics
You can see the responses on years of consumption. Most of us are in the 1-3 year range, but a couple old timers have been drinking it for 10+ years.
Kava hasn't changed over time, it's more like my life has. I quit drinking, lost a lot of weight, I credit it all to kava.

We're glad things are working out for your with this stuff! Definitely respect the root; going overboard and having one too many shells is something many of us at one time or another accidentally hit. It's not a fun experience, which is why on each of my bags I say to drink as many shells as makes you "comfortable". Having one too many shells is just not fun.
I think you'll enjoy both 'Eva and 'Ono. 'Eva is much like the Lawena in effects, but isn't as heady. The 'Ono is perfect for relaxing and drinking a few more shells than usual.
A few years ago kava really helped me "reset" my life, really. It helped me deal with a few issues I had, and helped me understand how to cope with them. Additionally, it's been great for sleep and general malaise. I find that I used to drink kava more than I do now (I'm currently at 3 or 4 nights a week), but I'm not sure what I would attribute the decline to.

I've been drinking it since I was 17. I believe early in 98. Sometimes heavy, sometimes light, but always enjoying it. I took some time off and switched back to booze recently, which had a toll on my health. I've been back on the kava for the last 4 or 5 months I think. When I first started drinking again, it was just as pleasant as the first time I tried as a teen.

I'm an old timer compared to the rest of you punks. 
Been drinking kava since 2000, although not continuously. Took
a few years off. But I've been drinking it steadily since about 2010.
The effects haven't changed for me over time. I still absolutely love it, and am grateful to the Lord above for
giving us this plant!!!
