I love the initial feelings that im getting from Instant Moi but, I would like something a touch easier to take on the go so im thinking either Kava Kava Candy or extracts. Which one is more potent without knocking me out? Also if an extract, which one? Thanks all! ;)

The Kalm with Kava orange drink concentrate is my alltime favorite kava. Its the only kava ive used which makes me giddy but not even remotely tired. GREAT stuff. It's not overly expensive either. That's my recommendation; but I don't have experience with anything other than that and medium grind stuff.

KwK orange drink tastes very good. Tried it twice, but it didn't do much for me -- very little effect.
It also contains california poppy, which is another sedative/anxiolytic.

I used to buy a kava extract paste from Nakamal@Home. Can't remember the name, but it was pretty potent. I don't think they
make it anymore, unfortunately. One little pea-sized glob under the tongue gave nice effects. Two was better.

Kava candy for me. The advantages over extract are:
  • It is not messy. You don't need a teaspoon or something else to get it into your mouth
  • It is more potent (at least in my experience)
  • It is sugar free
  • It doesn't look suspicious
  • It is very convenient to carry compared to a jar
Just my 2 cents worth.

Candies are tasty lol. The chamomile and lemon balm don't sedate either . I haven't tried extract yet tho. :(
@Zachary I have some extract being delivered today so ill let you know ;) For me I just find the drink to be a little too sedating particularly because it carries over almost as if I had just had it

I think a real good strong extra such as Paradises extract line up, or the new C02 70% kavalactone paste/extract from KavaKava R us...both provide a strong extract!
Paradises wins in the taste department hands down, but if your looking for a very strong extract and don't mind the kava taste then its hands down stronger then paradises though
There both good, I'v had experience with both...there both good in there own ways, you only need a teeny tiny grain of rice or 2 with the kavakavarus extract for fairly strong effects where as, with paradises you need 1/4 - 1/2 a tsp....

That's good to know. My paradise extract is being delivered today. Hopefully I get good effects without being too groggy the rest of the day

paradises extract is good in that aspect, it only made me a little drowsy after some time goes by, like maybe an hour or so...
Or if the dose is a bit large you might start falling asleep lol...same goes for kavakavarus extract, there both very strong with many kavalactones and
that should be more headier then not, but as with everything...you up the dose to much' with these extracts and your bound to wake up a few hours latter with
a smile on your face, lol...just start with a little pea sized amount, wait 10 mins and repeat until you find that sweet spot! :) good luck

I actually got a good deal with paradise extracts. They sent me extracts AND a pack of candy so I got to try both :) Im working on some candy right now ;)
