S.O. Reserve Borogoru

Meet the muscle-melting maestro of the kava world

If kavas were craft beers, your typical melo melo might be the smooth and reliable Stone IPA, and this one’s the Triple Hazy IPA from Monkish —stronger, a lot more complex, and absolutely unforgettable.

Each farm has their own style of farming giving off unique fruits of their labor. Like everything in life, we thought it would be simple and quick to find a cultivar we liked, but it was well over a year until we ran across one we truly loved.

This is a remarkable kava, deeply rooted in the rich traditions of Vanuatu, yet offering a distinct experience that elevates it beyond the ordinary. Our reserve Borogoru is the epitome of what fine Vanuatu kava represents.

Upon first sip you may understand what we mean by there. There's a complexity—thick, clean, yet palatable and undeniably potent. The experience unfolds slowly, like a worn leather bound book of a well-told story, leading you deeper into a space of introspection and mental clarity.

This varietal's power lies in its ability to balance heaviness with lightness. It offers the deep, muscle-melting sedation one might expect from a heavier kava, but with an unusual smoothness that’s easy on the stomach. It's not absurdly spicy like a Fijian waka, but it gets you to that sweet kava zone. This makes it not just a tool for relaxation, but a ceremonial companion—an invitation to step back, breathe deeply, and connect with something greater within yourself.

While it’s a very drinkable kava, it is best suited for quiet, solitary moments. Probably not best for kickbacks with your friends. Enjoy responsibly
