The Bricks Are Back!

[The Kap'n]

That's right! It looks like KavaTime is back to packing their kava Escobar style.


I always appreciated the format, and I'm glad to see it back. I can finally build that fort I've been dreaming of.

I got some Ambae's in brick style pakaging. Great batch. Also enjoying the Tavuni's Secret I got. Need to try the new Saquani's Fame next. I love Kava Time!

I just got a brick of Ambae's yesterday too. Will be doing some kneading shortly.

In other news, I'm 3 weeks off alcohol.

Nice job! A little over 2 years for me. Kava is a life saver!

I have the ambae brick too. Haven’t tried it yet though.

Congrats! Before you know it a few years will go by.

How does Ambae taste, compared to a Fijian waka? Is it more peppery / spicy?
The effects of this kava sound great, but I'm a bit worried that my stomach won't like it (I get acid reflux with some kavas, usually from Vanuatu).

Respect, and watch your back. If you need different stress reduction OR excitement then I recommend martial arts where you take some hits in a friendly environment (if reasonable ofc,said just for case).

I have had 3 weeks also in past 3 years but no 3 month breaks.

I actually find the current batch relatively smooth for a Vanuatu. A bit more peppery/spicy than a typical Fijian waka, but not overly so like with other Vanuatus I've had in the past. This is anecdotal, but I think the way Kava Time processes its kava leads to less likelihood of a negative physical reaction for me. I believe they may clean/peel the lateral roots very well and that may have something to do with it.
