lol! lol! well done Jimmy!
Seriously, ISA MINT?
We're going to try the mint again, that's a given.
Now, for the ISA word on that label. I have a lot to say on that matter, as always. (^_^)
Ok, let's assume we did an extraction with ISA specifically for high DHK/DHM results.
However, to me, the effort seems futile because the Di-hidro kavalactone count would be
unbearably high, and if were to offer the general kava consumer a quarter spoon of this
product in theory, they'd get nausea and would be lethargic for a few days till the double
bonded Kavalactones exit their blood stream and intestinal tract. Remember, our Extracts are almost 20 % Kavain and DHK.
In addition, to extract double bonded kavalactones is the very antithesis of 3000 years of
selective farming and the evolutionary refinement of Kava. To a farmer and product developer, it makes no sense whatsoever.
'Why' you ask?
Look at the Kavain count of Hawaiian Kava, the last stop the plant species makes on it's way from Vanuatu roughly 1400 years ago when the Marquesans first came to Hawaii with their canoe plants, 'awa, taro, etc...
Notice how refined Hawaiian kava.... nay, FEEL it's desirable euphoric feeling and fast exit
thru the human system
A huge plus for the modern age.
Experience it's generally lighter tasting beverage (even where extracts are not concerned) in contrast to ISA for example etc. Kavain is The Champ of all Kavalactones. I'm in love as you can tell, any views presented are biased in favor of Kavain
Yes, there is a market for ISA, a growing one as our sales graph shows. Obscene amounts,
given it's kavalactone profile, if you ask me.
But our vision at Paradise Kava turns our gaze to a greater purpose and representation for Kava across the globe.
We all know what happened to our beloved Kava plant just a decade ago, and it's simply not worth presenting anything less than Kava's Best Potential to the world. Something most people, whether they know about kava or not, will want to experience.
Greed, shortcuts, inferior, nauseating & chemically unstable Kava products, all these only give the many hawks with deep pockets a chance to ruin the entire industry once again. It's been done once, and it's much easier to repeat, if you ask me.
So, personally, I cannot see Paradise Kava ever producing such an extract, even though we
have the supply of kava, the means and ingenuity to produce such a product; our will to
direct the World to the purest feeling a Fine Kava Product can give, over rules all other motivations.
Even profit, believe it or not.
