My wife and I like both heady and heavy. We tend to start with a heady one like Five Star or Kelai and end with one of the heavy ones you see there. So we will taste maybe three kavas per session.
I concur. Except, most often lately, I kick off with a heavy. Like 15 grams Koro in one aluball coming up now, 300 ml water as one nice strong glass to settle me down at this point in my daily routine.
I loaded a 2nd Aluball to follow up, with the very heady Ofa's Tongan kava, 15 grams.
I will do the same there, 300 ml one wash.
Then when, ready, I will shake both balls together for a 2nd wash, in about 350 ml water, for an equally strong and dense third glass.
I feel that I personally need to keep switching and rotating between different kavas, spontaneously, day to day, letting my nose be the divining rod.
Typically a balance of heavy and heady. One day it may be 2 thirds heavy, 2 thirds heady, or 50/50.
All very flexible though.
I would hope to add another 15 gram single ball later washed twice. One step (shell) at a time though....
