Yes! It just gets worsePeople say it looks like muddy water when they see me drink it. I really think muddy water would taste much better. Has anyone else felt like they dislike the taste more as time passes? It doesn't seem to be an acquired taste. Like red wine, I hated the taste at first, the more I drank the more I liked it. With kava, I didn't mind the taste much when I started with it but now, taste is what I dread most about it....
