Current Mahakea and Fiji

[ThePiper]

I havent had GHK fiji in years and its been several months sincde I had mahakea. Has anyone tried either recently and how are they? is the mahakea leaning heady again or is it a little heavier? it tends to go back and forth by the batch.

So far I have only tried the Mahakea. I really love it. I made a big bowl of it because I usually like to drink a lot of Kava. The flavor is so creamy, smooth, and mildly peppery. It’s a delicious Kava. After I had my first shell I waited 10 or 15 minutes and was blown away by how much the first shell hit me. The Mahakea is very strong and pleasant. I drank the remainder of the Kava while working on some things I’ve been writing, and it put me in a calm and creative mood. This is one of the best Kavas available, and I’m going to have to order a few more pounds soon.

Hmmm, been a while since I had the Mahakea. Sounds like it is time to put it in rotation again. Honestly I never quite got the appeal of ordering the fiji from GHK. I mean why order non-hawaiian from one of the only direct sources of hawaiian kava? I wonder how much he sells.

It has a bit of that peppery "kava spice" in it which is usually characteristic to Fijian strains. But it's not so bitter, it has the typical mildness of a Hawai'ian 'awa.

For what it's worth the Fiji I ordered at the time of the original post was a blast. If I could get more of any kava I have had so far in 2020 it would be the fijian.it was very blissful and had a heady euphoria without jitters. It seemed to have a built in moodlift and emotional soothing that went further than all my other kavas (I organized my collection yesterday and I have over 15 types lol) while some other great kavas can make me feel melancholy and introspective at times, this one was quite the opposite. It put me on vacation.

It was also a smooth drinker with a dark color and licorice notes. None of the funkiness you see with some Waka and not too peppery. I really hope Chris gets it again soon and that it's similar.
