This kava is my new favorite, replacing
my previous long standing favorites, Solomon and Stone from
NakamalAtHome. The effects are more in the head, like Solomon x 4.
The price can't be beat, $25 per pound. The root is finely ground,
like powder sugar. Their website recommends 1c of root to a gallon
of water! While I didn't use that much water, I used 6-7 cups of
water and it was plenty potent. I spaced the shells out 15-25 mins
and that really really good feeling lasted all night. Yes I did
drink a lot shells over the course of the night, but it was no
chore. Taste and texture was mild. This has been my best kava
experience yet (I like heady kavas).
I don't recall any sleep problems like
with Solomon, then again it was the weekend and didn't care what time
I got to bed.
No second day effects, felt relaxed but
not lazy.
I really wish Kavasseur aka Vesuvio Cat
would review this one next. I think the word needs to get out about
Kava By Rex. I can't wait to try their other products.
Prep
little caffeine before noon (70mgs)no meals 5hrs before the kava
1 cup root, 6-7 cups water
no blender
no oil
no lethicin
soaked it for 30 mins in 75 degree
water, soaking might be optional for such finely ground powder, the
water temperature tip came from their website.
Squeezed for 10 mins.
Strained out all fibers
2nd Wash was 2 cups.
Ate 1 hour after last shell.
