All, I'm curious if you've tried adding other active ingredients to kava, especially to help with sleep. I love kava but have been trouble sleeping with a lot of my recent kava sessions. -- it's a bit frustrating and it's holding me back from drinking kava more often. I've made a long list of...

Thanks for this! I'll start off with some Puariki

Bula Everyone, posting here as I've been seeing multiple new single kava cultivars on the market. Perhaps you have too! I'm a big fan of all the new cultivars to try... but am trying to narrow it down a bit so as to not break the bank. Can folks tell me about their experiences with the...

Bula All, I've been drinking kava for some time , but find I'm drinking it less now because of how it harms my sleep. I LOVE my kava sessions (they usually start between 6pm and 8pm and go for 1-1.5 hours) but I cut them off early to prevent sleep issues. Sometimes I feel I'll even had...

Bula All, I've been trying to see which vitamins, supplements, or functional ingredients complement kava well. Namely, what can I take to make sure I don't feel drained from the kava the next day? I keep seeing vitamins B6 and B12 marketed alongside (or included in) some kava products...

Bula everyone. Fascinating poll results and comments... thank you for participating :)

Bula All, I'm curious to know if you all sip or chug kava made from dried powder vs. if you ship or chug kava made from fresh root. I find I chug both but sometimes can sip kava made from fresh root I've also been experimenting with strong kava 'shots' (2-3oz) that I down all at once... just...

Wow! Thank you for this comprehensive response Alia! I will share this with my friends next time they ask :)

Bula everyone, I've had more people asking me about why I drink kava... I generally say 'the effects' but I feel it also is just healthy overall. I've never gone deep into kava's nutritional profile, however Does kava have certain vitamins / minerals in it that make it healthy beyond just its...

That all makes sense. I'll give coffee a go next time I need to exit the kava krunkspace. Bula!

Bula everyone -- I'm curious to know if anyone here has solutions to cutting kava's effects? For example, I'll get somewhat krunk and then have something urgent come up that I need to deal with. I can usually handle it while krunk... but in certain instances would prefer not to be krunk :)...

All, I have been drinking kava for plenty of time now. I've done my own share of experimenting with flavors and have found great tips from on here with regards to pairings. My current go-to to make kava taste better is to add ginger bitters to my kava. It makes the kava more palatable without...

I’ve thought about this as well, @Michael Nielsen . There are long distance, frozen supply chains for plenty of goods (fruits, vegetables, etc.) — why can’t there be the same for kava? And that brings me to @Henry ‘s point. Even if we could get fresh frozen kava... where is the innovation on...

All, I was Googling fresh kava as part of my love for Pacific Roots Kava (I’m hoping they come back again). This thread was fascinating to read through. I’m wondering... have we gotten any closer to discovering the magical compounds in fresh kava that make it better than dried kava? Perhaps...

Hi All, I’ve been experimenting with not just more types of kava and but also when I drink it... I sometimes drink kava on weekend nights and sometimes on weeknights. It averages out to be about once a weekend and 2-3 weeknights every week (with some weeks with no kava and some with lots of...

Thank you for this, @Henry ... unfortunately I’m getting an “oops, we ran into some problems” when I click on the link. I’d love to read more.

Understood, @Henry . Thank you for providing detail here — it makes sense that those two tragedies of the year would’ve put a stop to the project. I hope that when the time is right Pacific Roots can pick up where it left off. It is something special.

Bula everyone, I’ve loved ordering and drinking Pacific Roots Kava. However, it looks to be out of stock on the KWK website (where I used to get it from) and on the Kava Society of NZ site. I heard on a recent @kavasseur YouTube video that they might stop making it (hopefully not...

I’ll give those teas a shot! Thank you, @ThatDankK

Appreciate the suggestions, @Krunʞy !
