It took some time because of the covid situation but I finally got my first order from Fiji Fresh Kava.
The reviews available on the internet regarding the kava from this vendor is almost only positive, so I was expecting some good and price worthy kava.
I must say that I'm impressed and that I was surprised over how much I liked it! As you know, kava is a lot different for different people and I don't wanna look like I'm hyping this variety.
This AAA Waka is really smooth. The powder is pretty fine compared to other kavas I've had, a table spoon is almost 10 grams instead of like 6-8 gram that I am used to (But there is no problem using a 100 micron nylon bag straining it without getting too much harshness on the stomach). The kava varieties I've had home the past months have had a really strong smell and taste that I was not so fond of. This kava tastes and smells fresh and not some strong almost chemical smell that I feel like, for example, the Vanautu from Real Kava have. I had a bit of a hard time with the differents varieties from Nakamal at home too. The grog turns deep brown pretty quick and I even made a third smaller wash that I blended into the first and second wash.
It does not take many minutes before I feel how this balanced kava with a heady overtone, washes away the chattering in my mind that comes with stress and gives me a smile on my face. I have a lacking experience with kavas that have a heady character, but this one seems to have a good percentage of Headiness and Heaviness for me. I have been drinking between 30-40 grams per evening and my go to dosage is usually around 30 grams. This kava is not super strong, but I feel like that is a positive thing for me right now. I don't want a kava that slaps my face. The peppery taste and the good mix of Kavalactones makes this a really good drink to relax at home, feeling good. Without getting slapped in the face and wanting to lie down.
I am looking forward to try Best Fiji Kavas AAA Vanuatu that I have one lbs of at home too. In my order there was also the premium grade waka that felt a bit like the aaa waka, but weaker. I made a grog with 45 grams yesterday that I drink over the evening while watching series on my computer. Next time I am buying kava I will definitely buy a kilo of the AAA waka.
Also an interesting thing: I've had big problems with skin rashes when I drink kava the past months. While drinking Nakamal and Real Kava varieties I've had outbreaks every time I drink and it has been really annoying. For some reason this kava does not give me rashes. For the first time in months my hands are healing while I am still drinking kava. This is just a personal anecdote, but I am really happy about it.
