Kava Kava. The Therapeutic Temptress of Delight!

The extract certainly works. However, I find the effects to tamper off quite abruptly.

For instance, if I apply one good size pea portion under my tongue there's an instant effect of numbness. The numbness increases in strength for the next five minutes. The effects plateau for another five minutes. Followed by a steady decline in effects for the next ten minutes. However, for the next 20-30 minutes theres a relaxing afterglow akin to a mild benzodiazepine.

The vendor I order from definitely perfects the art of Kava making! ;)



Certainly! :D

Who actually likes pounding the hardest whiskey without a chaser on hand? I know I would receive many "yes" nods in return, but you get my gist.

Kava has it own unique taste and texture. Once you get use to its distinct texture, you'll find Kava to be quite delightful on the taste buds. After the first cup of Stone Kava I actually took in the aromas and texture. It's a new taste that requires adaptation.​ :D

aquired taste it is

You live in Hawaii and don't know a spot? :lol:

It's the main drink of the Pacific Islands! Hawaii, Fiji, Tonga Etc. all drink this on regular occasions.

Yes. Kona Kava is one of the major Hawaii suppliers of Kava. Look them up and see for yourself.

However, I order from another vendor. I'll give Kona Kava a try once I finish the rest of my supplies. ;)
from the vendors ive tried kona has the bestwhole root for miles

I must be the only one who doesn't like this stuff. Bought a bag of it a few months back and only tried it once. Felt ok for awhile then felt almost like that paranoid and edgy over nothing feeling you get about 20min after doing a line of blow. Skin got all clammy and everything. It was the complete opposite of "calm and tranquil." Maybe I drank too much? What's the recommended dose?

Well, not that many people here have seemed to try it besides me and Uunk.

Cocaine and Kava Kava share no similarities besides the numbing factor. There's a sizable inner buzz that illuminates within 10 minutes after drinking the root powder. After the first cup a more tranquil feeling manifesting itself. Recommended dosage is about 2/4th cups of root powder and 1 cup water. The drink is not for everyone. Everyone has a preference. But for what its worth its a great alternative to alcohol and has great medicinal properties. :D

I purchased muslin bags; however, way to small to strain the Kava. For one cup full I had to pour 8 separate times into muslin bag. Very tedious. I need one big net to capture all the Kava in one setting.

Blends of recommended choice are Stone, Chief, WoW. If you not a fan of subtleness then these recommended blends are for you! ;)

Geez, thanks for letting me look like a stupid ass! :lol:

I almost laughed looking at these 4x4 in. muslin bags with nearly 4 cups of Kava sludge looking back at me. I was like, "Ah bitch... fuck it... I'm in it for the long haul!" ;)

It was rewarding, nonetheless!

Come on post man bring my Kona Kava!!! I ordered a sampler package (which was only $24 with shipping) consisting of:

1/4 lb bag of Mahakea Powdered Kava Root, a Reusable Muslin Extraction Bag, a 1 oz pack of Instant Kava Drink (Cocoa), six 30% Kavalactone Capsules, and a 10% Coupon on your next order.
Me and my girl will make a good dent in it as soon as it comes in the mail, will let you guys know how it goes.

" Our Mahakea kava kava root has matured for over four years, and has the most desirable 426 kavalactone/chemotype line up for the least bitter taste and the most pleasurable effects."

Not bad!

The only reason why I doubted Kona Kava is because I heard some bad things about it on a blog. The blog goes into detail about various other blends and vendors. However, Uunk has used them in the past with great results. However, he has not tried the vendors I specified. So, we'll see how it turns out! ;)

Specimen do you mind letting me know your vendor. Not sure if you're allowed to post it, but could you PM me if not?

I tried some kava extract from Kona Kava a few years ago and I felt absolutely no effect regardless of the serving size. Nothing against them though... they actually offered me a refund if I returned what I hadn't used.

Mine. Has no mention of Kava extract percentage. Its the whole root but just crushed into powder. The consistency of my batch is chalky lime green. Does your pouch of Kava have any labeling that indicates brand (edition).

your best off trying a whole root/powdered root seep first
