It's been a long time since I've reviewed a micronized kava, but this one is special. Fiji Vanua has worked with an expert flavor crafter to make a kava product which lacks the standard kava flavor. Enter ChocoKava. Tesh, the owner of Fiji Vanua, even with his short time with us, has gone to some great lengths to fulfill needs he perceives from his customers.
This is a perfect 10 in terms of taste. They selected an amazing cocoa powder. It smells exactly like swiss miss with only the smallest hint of kava at the back.
The drink is slightly sweetened and a little powder goes a long way. I mixed 1 tablespoon with around 300ml of water and it made a drink that numbed my mouth, and I could even feel at one shell. Nothing crazy, of course, but I certainly did feel it at one shell amount.
Here's the real kicker; My wife drank it. Yes, the same wife that complains when I make kava because "It makes the kitchen smell like dirt". When that happens, you can bet the taste of this product is agreeable. Any kava related product I see her go after I feel deserves a 5 shell overall score. Any reduction in effects is made up by the pleasant taste, and you can always drink more
So, if you find yourself wincing when drinking kava, and wish for a little break, check this out when it becomes available.
The closest product in the past that I can say this is analogous to is Kava Time's chocolate micronized powders.
