Your current favorite?

So what is at the top of your list?

Of all I've tried - Stone is by far #1 for me. It's the one I keep going back to.

Koniak is my current #1

Stone. Too expensive for me at the moment, and boroguru is filling that spot nicely, but nothing compares to the wallop delivered by a thick batch of stone. It basically says "hey, have any plans tonight? Oh that's too bad because I've just cancelled them"

I've also sampled a ton of different strains, keep coming back to the Van3 (Kava by Rex). It seems the best at promoting chatting and catching up after a long day at work.

Mine is Nambawan.

How much Koniak do you generally drink at once? Pretty strong stuff.

 

[krunkedout]

Usually between 6-7 tablespoons

 

[kavadude]

Dang thats a mans bowl of kava right there. I'm trying 3 tbsps tonight after doing quite a bit more on monday, hopefully I will be able to enjoy it this time.

 

[krunkedout]

Do you get effects from that much? 6 tablespoons is my go-to amount for all kavas

Lol.
I second this.  My kava repertoire isn't large but stone is definitely my favorite so far.

 

[kavadude]

Me too but I tried making a lot of koniak the other day on an empty stomach and it caused me quite a bit of nausea after drinking about half of it. Drank 3 tbsps of Koniak tonight and I would say its a nice and very mild buzz.

The real power of koniak is in its diversity. The first 15-20 min are heady and euphoric, almost like a certain other herb. Then it tapers down a bit; after I make a second wash with a half cup warm water and maybe another tablespoon it slowly creeps back. After about 5 or 10 min, if you eat something, it hits you in the face. It's also very long lasting for me and is, in my opinion the most balanced kava I have tried. It also goes well with apple ejuice! I've notices that in the first half hour or so my emotional sensitivity shoots way up. For example, I was looking at an equation that describes the increasing entropy and it brought tears to my eyes that there could be such perfect complexity and order to an increasingly random system. Silly, yes I know, but a great example. For all of you stone fans, I suggest getting a bag of this.

Gonna have to say that Koniak has replaced Stone as my favorite kava. And its so cheap too.

 

[Ed!]

I just did a blend of Koniak and Stone... great stuff, tastes surprisingly awesome.

Boroguru has been my favorite, but I'll buy a bag of the koniak next time.

 

[kl.Lente]

Boroguru all the way for me.



It even ends in Guru.
