'Kava Cola' (forum member) very kindly sent me a promotional case of the cola yesterday. He didn't ask me to review it, but I thought I'd leave a quick review with my initial impression anyway.
The taste is excellent. It's a very unique taste I think and quite different to store bought cola, it's partly because they don't make it fizzy or very sugary, and partly because of the strong peppery taste of the kava. As someone who isn't a fan of the taste of mud water, this tasted great. I drank 3 bottles in all, and by the end of the 3rd bottle it was beginning to feel very moreish.
As for the effects. I was quite surprised how potent this was for an instant product. It's made with melo melo root powder, and I found the effects very similar to the BKH's melo melo product, i.e not much of a body effect, but very mentally relaxing and calming. It's also quite long lasting. I'd say each bottle would be equal in terms of effects to a pretty strong shell of melo melo root powder.
I'm not sure how cost-effective the cola would be for me in my current financial state, but if I were a bit more flush, I'd be wanting a constant supply of this stuff. It's ideal for any anxiety sufferers because you get to carry a potent shot of kava to work, college or wherever, and it's about as discreet as it gets. It's also perfect for introducing new people to kava, I think. They get something pleasant tasting but potent. I'm meeting a friend tomorrow who's never drank kava and I'm excited to see what he thinks of it, from the perspective of a complete kava noob.
