    Powdered Kava Review Tikarams Fijian Waka

    This kava is a great daily drinker for me. It tastes like chalky cocoa mixed with black pepper and drinks smooth with no bad aftertaste. I prepped it traditionally which makes it more "full spectrum" for me in effects. Relaxed muscles, desire to read or watch tv...a very chill kava. again was...

    11 Year Waka Micronized

    I am really digging this stuff. Literally And figuratively. Digging spoonful after sweet spoonful as I scoop it out of the bag like I'm looking for treasure. Taste is like a kind of "burnt butterscotch" and smells like heaven rather than "earthy". Color is like peanut butter, my favorite comfort...

    Ambae's Review... or How to Transcend Time

    So the first thing I noticed with this Ambae's is the strong, pleasant smell of it when opening the vacuum sealed bag. OMG. It smelled almost like a woody smell, but more than pine...almost like white oak or sassafras. I could sense the strength and depth of the kava just by the pungency of...

    expert advice on different grinds

    I am interested to know how different grinds of kava and textures influence the end result in the grog. Which grind style is the most cost effective? Which makes for stronger grog? Etc. For instance, kava supreme (great kava) has a smaller, more sandy type grind. Most of the BKH stuff is a...

    poison ivy relief

    I got bad poison ivy on my legs, where it was oozing out and itching baaaad! I am low on extra funds or I'd get calamine to help. Instead I took about a tsp of micronized moi and added a few drops of water and made a paste. Kind of like "kava mud"( I hear 'my name is mud' song in my head now)...

    aaaawwww yeeeaaa

    I am really digging the funky vibes of the savusavu right now. Time has slowed down, reading is awesome, and everything seems more novel get it? Reading? Novel? I would digress but I won't.. I heart good Waka.

    Dua Na Bilo?

    Anyone have any Intel on where to get some of this? Amazon says it's sold out. I hadn't heard anyone mentioning it for a few months.

    Tongan and Supreme...two sides of the same coin

    I just wanted to make it known how appreciative I am that I can hit both ends of the so-called kava spectrum, just by drinking a bit of each of these two kavas. The Kavafied Tongan is absolutely great tasting, almost like almond milk. The Kavafied Supreme isn't as refined in the taste...

    Fijian Waka Spiritual Awakening

    I don't know if I'm the only one, but I have had many great experiences with a variety of different kavas. I've learned that for me, the Hawaiian kavas are more 'fresh, fun, and energizing'. Tongans usually are my 'extroverted introvert' kava, and Vanuatuans are my 'muscle melting...

    Honokane Iki versus Hanakapi Ai.....Cage Match

    So I have had both of these kavas in the past and both were wonderful...in completely different ways. I recall the Honokane Iki made me feel intelligent and focused, and the Hanakapi made me completely loopy and 'goofy'. Everything was funny and I laughed at things that normally I wouldn't. I...

    somebody stop me!

    Tell me it's a bad idea to have a shell or two of Dua Na Bilo combined with KWK Loa Waka before work today. I'm not yet convinced that it won't be the best decision I could make today.

    Bitten by a kava monster last night

    Oh no!........ I seem to have been bitten by the dreaded dermothapy monster! My skin is starting to slowly dry out and look like 'old man hands'. Supposedly this was a sort of status symbol and thought to be attractive in the old Oceanic kava cultures. Anyone ever shaken hands with...

    Powdered Kava Review Squanch Kava - Fiji Waka

    I just wanted to drop a note of appreciation for Squanch Fiji Waka. This stuff is smooth tasting and so economically priced. I was also able to get two strong washes from one AluBall and a third wash that was maybe half the strength of the first two. Not only the kava is great, but this guy is...

    Kava Economy/mileage

    :pompus::pompus:This maybe a dumb question but I figured what the heck..why not ask the experts! So here goes, Am I correct in thinking a pound of kava would contain roughly 3.5 or so cups? In other words, how many decent kava sessions can you all get with a pound of kava? How does the...

    Question for Chris

    Hi Chris! I was having trouble pming you so I hope it's not inappropriate to ask my question here. Are you able to process my credit card for an order i'd like to place without having to use PayPal? I'm wanting to order a 1/2 lb of Moi Micronized and a 1/2 lb of Hanakapi Ai. I thought it...

    Riding the moi & mate train...

    Anybody else ever have a good Yerba mate in the middle of a heady kava session? If not, shame on you! (Jk) But I would recommend it though. (Smiles)

    Time dilation, anyone?

    Does anyone else notice time slowwwwwws waaaaay dowwwwwn on kava? I'm very interested in your experiences with this effect of drinking our favorite root. I'm talking almost psychedelic time dilation I've experienced at times. I just looked at the clock and lived an eternity while the...

    Safeguarding My Kava Stash

    This is the guy I have guarding my kava recently. If anyone gets too close, he silently gives them a piercing gaze until they leave. His name is Marty. Martin L. Methysticum is how he signs his name on official documents. I always offer him some strong grog in return for his work, but he...
