What is kava?

Haven’t heard of kava? Kava is made from the roots of a pepper plant native to the South Pacific. It has a fascinating earthy yet numbing taste, that results from the high level of calming actives in the roots.

Natural kava is vegan, gluten-free, nonaddictive, and full of liver protecting properties.

How many servings

Each jar servings depend deeply on how strong you batch it . Keep in mind you can also batch multiple times.

Regardless, expect 14+ servings per jar

Is kava safe

Kava is generally recognized as a safer/healthier non-addictive alternative to alcohol as long as it is consumed in the traditional form.

For this reason we generally DO NOT recommend non-traditional methods of using kava such as: pills, concentrates, ready-to-drink made with concentrates, tinctures, and micronized kava. These are convenient but aside for the last one, they shouldn't be called kava. In the same way you don't put caffeine in a pill and call it coffee, you shouldn't put extract in a soda can and call it kava.

Traditional kava has not been shown to be addictive in clinical trials and does not activate physiological or psychological addiction tendancies found in beverages and supplements like alcohol or kratom.

about borogoru

You don't see many Palarasul's. This is because although not necessarily a rare grow, it IS surprisingly hard to attain for two main reasons. It's difficult to distinguish without the trained eye as it is usually just "thrown on the pile" and sold alongside other kava's. Second, it's usually reserved for local use only. Luckily with the help from our partners on the island we were able to reserve some of these premium cuts!

As you explore what mother nature has in store for you, take a moment to look within on this hand picked varietal and see if you can pick up the subtle nuances from the standard Vanuatu's you may have tried. You may notice a lighter feeling spirit, a possible lift in mood or outlook on the day, or maybe even the inner peace you've been looking for

what is traditional kava

cheers to the world of exquisite kava's

For the purist at heart

drinkroot traditional kava starts with a careful selection of either single origin harvests or a hand selected blend of the top noble varietals, to create a unique premium mixture.

After the plant is pulled from the ground, the basal and lateral roots are separated, debarked, and cut up into manageable chunks for drying. Afterward every batch of roots undergoes a strict QC analysis to ensure premium kavalactone characteristics and content to match your desired experience profile.

No bark.
No weak filler roots.
Pure. Powerful. kava.
