Video Hiwa Review

I have posted a review of Hiwa on youtube. Kavasseur has not reviewed the GHK Hiwa although has reviewed Hiwa from other vendors. I have his blessing to do these reviews, I made a point of asking him and he is completely cool with it. Sorry about the quality in this video, I'm not sure why it's so bad, possibly to do with the lighting. I'll try harder next time. I believe there will be a next time, I'm actually enjoying doing these. I'd love some feedback one way or the other about this.

Keep them coming! Video reviews help convey the subtle effects a kava can impart. Thank you for this.

Is that the famous lorry?! Looks nice in there dude, I guess I didn't realize you do long hauls. I like the idea of drinking kava while camping in your truck over night around rainy olde England. Ever drive to Scotland?

That's why I need 4 shakers and 12 balls! Got a fridge but no sink. It can be pretty comfortable although British trucks are about a quarter of the size of a US one. I've been to Scotland quite a lot with work but also holiday there quite often. The longest job I have done is from Poole in Dorset to Dundee.

That is the best video review I have seen, no joke. Please make more, I love your video review and I think more would be great.
Thanks for posting this video. Are you in Scotland? You must be part of Clan McKenzie, :) I just finished watching a show called Outlander, it was a great show and I love the land and views in Scotland.
Aloha.

I was curious about what that distance would look like to me, so I made a little comparative map. I've actually never driven farther than LA to Sacramento, which is about 400 miles, and that's about 100 miles less than the Poole to Dundee drive. What's the highway speed limit out there?

Comparisons like these always make me think "How on earth are all of those people packed in over there so densely"

The lorries are restricted to 55 miles per hour but the cars can do 70. Also I can only drive for 4.5 hours without a break and 9 in one day so it took me a day and a bit to get there.

They must really over-pack their big cities. I just googled Los Angeles, which is frustratingly over crowded and the population is about 4 million people in 500 Square Miles --- London is almost 9 million people in 600 Square Miles. More than twice the amount of people in nearly the same amount of space. It seems the streets should be so crowded with traffic that these terrorists could never acquire enough speed to run over innocent pedestrians...

@Edward That was an excellent review, definitely keep them coming. My favorite parts were you getting the last few drops out of the Aluball, that little swirl at the end that you do reminded me almost exactly what I do and that priceless krunked look at the end :)

It's no joke, crossing the Thames in London is a nightmare. There's a tunnel under the river called the Blackwall tunnel and if you try and go through it joining the queue at 7 am or later it can take you two hours to get through. In lots of places now as well they have introduced 20 mile an hour speed limits. Good for road safety, less kids getting run over but it can take forever to get anywhere.

Yes, it gets interesting towards the end as you get more and more relaxed!

I think you are the new Video Kava Reviewer, now all you need is a catchy nickname.
Yes I see... like The Kava Connoisseur... or The Connoisseur of Kava... I don't know, something like that maybe? ;-) . Anyway some suggestions would be good :)

The Kavateer... reviews without the drama.
