New to the forum!/ Thoughts on powdered kava extracts?

[Obsolete_Potato]

Hey guys!

I'm new here and a big fan of kava. I like to make drinks with micronized kava and coconut milk or sometimes juice, but my friends say the bitter taste is still too much. I see powdered kava concentrates like this and I wonder, with a 70% kavalactone content, I could add less and still get the desired effects.

I don't mind the bitter taste personally, but looking to make something I can share. Any thoughts on the taste of concentrates (especially powdered concentrates)?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Don't buy extracts, it is not kava, you are not getting the same thing, the 70% is meaningless. Instead, get some GHK Mahakea or a light Fijian Lewena, I recommend Squanch, will be hard to go wrong with either one. The Hawaiian kava will be smoothest.

Mahakea Medium Grind

Mahakea has better than average potency with nice balanced effects. It shows a little bit of all the effects. It was once said that the ‘Awa Mahakea was one of the more common cultivars in the Hawa…

Squanch Fijian Lawena 1lb

Squanch Fiji Lawena. This kava is made solely from the base stump root chips. This provides a lighter color and much milder taste. It looks like you are drinking a creamy white sand beach while making you feel like you are relaxing on the same beach. This is a great kava for new kava drinkers...
