BULA!
Regarding RT, based on Kava's strange mechanism of action, I have no doubt that there is some sort of strange pharmacological action going on, including sensitization (aka reverse tolerance).
That being said, I think the sensitization is compounded by the fact that so many people don't use the right preparation technique or the right kava in the beginning.
Therefore, you should read the reviews for the kava that you are interested in.
Since you bought Paradise Kava's Fijian, you would look here: http://www.kavaforums.com/forum/forums/paradise-kava-product-reviews.61/
The effects are listed in the reviews, as well as our incredibly informative FAQ... http://www.kavaforums.com/forum/wiki/frequently-asked-questions/
Effects
The effects of Kava can be felt within 5 minutes, and last for about 3-5 hrs on average can be felt for up to eight hours. Some report longer-term effects, including a feeling of mental clarity, patience, and an ease of acceptance for days after ingestion.

Depends on the cultivar (and the total kavalactone concentration, but importantly, the chemotype).Sounds good. I'm interested to see what this stuff can do. Is the effect somewhat like a body buzz?

One of the best properties of kava is that it relaxes and eases stress and anxiety but does not make one "loopy", "hazy" or in any way mentally impaired.
Kava has been demonstrated to be a very effective treatment for anxiety; equal to Buspirone and Opipramol and more effective than valerian or St. John's Wort, without the side effects associated with benzodiazepines such as tolerance and negative cognitive effects and sedation.
