The Grand Instant Green Review Thread

[kavalover]

It's nice huh, to be sitting there and think "so this is the krunk-space...." I first got that true krunk after n@h Solomon Islands mixed with a fair amount of Wow! Just lying there. Body buzzing every which way. It was wonderful.



I'm soaking some Fiji waka, gonna mix some Vanuatu Green Instant to it. I'm excited to see how these kavas mix. Kind of anxious. lol.

damn i just ordered some v3, now i don't know if i should order this too. I kinda was going to order chief's jungle because I wanted something cerebal in the v3 and something dhm body type with the chief's jungle to alternate with. (never tried either yet btw)

My question is though... with using two tablespoons everyday of this instant stuff... how long will it last? those tins don't look too big.. seems like two tablespoons would take out a good chunk of them

I've had five 2 tsp servings so far out of a 50 gram tin and I still have a decent amount left. The thing is...instant can spoil you because it's so easy to make. There is no waiting and no squeezing. You just throw it in some water, stir and yer done. Since it's so easy to make it goes faster. If you use it every day it will go horrifically fast. I'm going to be saving mine for weekends. It's too OP to do that during the week...now that I know how hard it'll hit me.(smiley: laugh)

 

[kavalover]

Well penguinbrah, I'm not going to persuade you to get one kava over another. But I'll tell you that the Vanuatu Green is a great deal. Potent, easy to prepare (which Vekta is right, may not be such a good thing lol) which are two too good to be true aspects of a kava. I can't see anyone being disappointed with this stuff.

So, for the Fiji waka + Vanuatu Instant Green mix, the taste = crazy kava-ey. It's like, interestingly enough, a mix of n@h chief's jungle and isa/tudei from KBR. Strong, whew, strong taste. Pungent and grassy. (smiley: sick). As for the effects, well here I am after 1 shell krunked. I have 3 shells to go, but I'll probably end up saving some for tomorrow as my fingers are already "numbing" (I know you know what I'm talking about)

Wonderful combo. A+

Here's to you Judd, for providing an awesome product. And to you Vekta for being krunked on this Vanuatu Green with me. and to everyone else for being awesome.

 

[Vekta]

3 MORE shells? Ballzy...
I had 2.5 and I was krunk enough(smiley: laugh)

 

[kl.penguinbrah]

damn i just might go ahead and order this stuff... i'd love to have something that's so easy to make. have you guys tried using this stuff while working? I'm taking my LSAT in june and im wondering if this particular type would be beneficial while studying to help with a relaxed focus type deal - or would my v3 suffice for that? Only problem is that I'm going to have to spend 30 min making the v3 every day lol. I also have some paradise fresh frozen left, so I'm planning on making a blend of that and the V3 every now and then. 
thanks kavalover and vekta.. your reviews are and advice are great

damn i just ordered some v3, now i don't know if i should order this too. I kinda was going to order chief's jungle because I wanted something cerebal in the v3 and something dhm body type with the chief's jungle to alternate with. (never tried either yet btw)

My question is though... with using two tablespoons everyday of this instant stuff... how long will it last? those tins don't look too big.. seems like two tablespoons would take out a good chunk of them

I'd personally recommend stone over chiefs from N@H, I bought 1/4 kg of both and the stone is definatly more potent. The taste is pretty rugged and chiefs has a real strong pine taste which I love but I've heard others don't. Also boroguro from BKH has a high DHM and is by far the most cost effective. I still think stone is pretty bomb, wait until KBR gets their tudei back, that is the most heavy kava I've drank in the DHM department.
I think the instant will vary from person to person. I was using about a tablespoon per serving when just drinking it alone and adding a teaspoon to fortify a batch of stone or chiefs. I've gone through mine pretty quickly, but it should be noted that I'm a hardhead and go for the strongest possible effects on a fairly regular basis. I still think it's a great deal for the money and the smoothness and ease of use makes it awesome, it is also good to use sublingually and makes your mouth go super numb.

thanks for that insight - I was actually conflicted between stone and chief's. However, I may wait for kbr tudei since I have some fresh frozen and v3 coming in also. 
I really want to order the instant because I want something easy to make in the afternoon during my study sessions. However, at nighttime I am a hardhead as well and want something strong to knock me out. Maybe I can combine the instant and the v3 for that?

 

[kl.penguinbrah]

so i took the plunge and just placed an order for the instant. I hope i love this stuff!

I'm just trying KBR Van3 for the first time and taste wise to me it seems very similar to BKH Green, Green is a little more peppery but sweeter and less of a smell to it vs. Van3 is less peppery but has a stronger kava smell to it. I think Van3 is stronger on effects, but I guess it depends how much you use, kind of hard to make an apples-to-apples comparison.

I just mixed some KBR Isa with VG



The experience feels very...flat... for a lack of a better expression.



The pain in my leg is gone and I feel very warm, specially on the back of my neck. That's it really.



A little relaxed but not much else. Surprising. Very "middle of the road".

FYI, it's hard for us to keep Instant Green stocked due to its popularity. We've been out for a couple weeks but a new shipment just arrived. It will be available on the website in about 5 minutes.



And here's a little kava business inside baseball: There aren't many instant manufacturers in Vanuatu, but rest assured that no one else is selling the blend that we have, using the same high quality processing methods. This has now been assured through the manufacturer himself. As many of you already know and have attested to here, this instant is in a class all its own.

Just bought some more.
Hopefully it arrives july 3rd.
Because the 4th we are leaving up north for vacation, and really looking forward to enjoying some Green.

People better buy up, because this is GREAT kava.

Fantastic!



My wife is really looking forward to giving it a try.

She hasnt had the Instant Green yet, and was really wanting to try it.



I figured best time would be vacation time.



Thanks again Judd, your customer service is really fantastic!
