Kava Curious
This kava smells like wood and pepper, and tastes like it too. Surprisingly, despite it not being as bitter as some other kavas I've tried, I didn't really take a liking to the taste.
My experience:
I can say this has to be my favorite kava so far. It gives me a warm, "everything's okay" feeling without making me tired. Things that would typically upset me were instead seen in a different perspective and I felt like with this level of mellowness, I would be able to deal with conflict in a calm manner or even better, avoid it. I just wanted to relax and talk to friends the entire day. It tends to make my body feel relaxed as well. When I went to lie down in bed, it felt like all that was wrong in the world no longer existed. I could tell I'd probably be having a nice dream that night.
Edit: I started finding things more interesting than usual as well. Like, normally I don't care about photography but after kava'ing I could be looking at a professional photograph and it would stir up many feelings inside me. I'd start to find things very interesting, I'd appreciate the beauty of many things in life, and it was a pretty good feeling for someone like me who finds almost everything in life dull. I guess that might just be part of the headiness I experience with kava in general though.
Oh, and I'm usually not fond of needles but last month I was able to deal with 3 needles in a single day (don't ask, my blood test just happened to be on a day where I had to get my monthly shots of medicine) with minimal discomfort. I'm pretty sure it would've been much harder for me to go through with that had I not had a couple of shells that morning.
So yeah, it helps me get things done.
I also think I might be completely out of RT now seeing as I was able to achieve effects with less than before (previously 4 tbsp or more). It helps that I'm pretty light in terms of weight.
Overall, I recommend this kava to those who are prone to stress and anxiety. Especially social anxiety. It's helped me quite a bit.
Might do some reviews for other kavas I enjoy in the future. Then again, I'm not that good at writing reviews.
