Kava King Products Inc Instant Drink Mix Vanuatu Blend 8 ounces

I’ve traveled extensively in the Pacific and no the benefits of kava. On a physiological level it relaxes the lower spine so it’s the perfect product for someone with lower back pain or restless leg syndrome. It aids in sleeping as well. Most cava is somewhat dirty and needs to be filtered or strained. This is a wonderful product because it’s clean and doesn’t require strraining. You can simply pour some into a small water bottle, shake it, and it’s good to go! That’s a huge improvement over a traditional kava which isn’t so easy to prepare.

I have severe anxiety and depression. This stuff works great and really helps to calm me down. Some people said this was weak but I've found it to be rather strong. I take a teaspoon (dry in my mouth then flush ) every day. If I take more than a teaspoon I actually start to notice a buzz.This stuff is much stronger than capsules which didn't seem to do anything. I highly recommend this for help with relaxation.

I confess that I think that this product tastes dreadful. Having confessed that, it works--fast. I make it go down more easily by mixing 2 tablespoons of the powder with a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice and water, and drink it in one long gulp. Then, I immediately drink some more water with just lemon juice and eat a cracker. That works great, and I would buy this product again.

After trying kava at a local kava bar, I ended up giving ordering kava grounds off the internet a shot - namely this product (8 oz Kava King Vanuatu Blend). Fair warning, you will need to drink a lot of water with this to stay hydrated. Kava can cause skin irritation and dehydration without lots and lots of water to back it up and this product demonstrates it. I had a dry throat for nearly two weeks and shoulder rashes months after drinking this and the rashes did not go away until I'd left this bag on the shelf for almost as long without taking a dip into it, so fair warning. There may be other brands that are less prone to this side effect. While it is a good relaxant, it is not quite as strong as the kava served at kava bars.

Actually quite surprised for the price. Very heady! Taste was a bit weird though. Tasted sort of like peanut butter. I think maybe there is something else mixed in this at an attempt to try to flavor it. It tastes nothing like actual kava and doesn't really give any effects unless you mix 7-8 tbls in the blender. Doubt I will buy again.

This was disgusting! Don't know where anyone would say this taste good. I tastes like cardboard and looks like sand from the desert. Who knows if that is what you are drinking. Something that isn't even supposed to be consumed, that is what I got out of this. Took a few sips and threw it away. There was no way I was going to drink anymore. It had no taste or flavor, as I said it tastes the way cardboard smells. Luckily I was able to return this but never again. I've been trying to figure out how everyone likes this and I can't figure it out. The saying goes, that if it tastes bad it's good for you, but not this product.

One of the downsides I usually have with instant kava mixes are that it is usually a little weaker, little more expensive and sometimes has a weird taste. But i didn't get that with the Kava King product. I absolutely love mxing this stuff with my iced coffee during the summer, I put about 12oz of ice coffee into a shaker bottle with 2-3 teaspoons and shake for 20 seconds. After that I get ready to chug away and it really doesn't taste that bad, much better than some of the "earthy" stuff I've tried before and it really was instant. You gotta love the bad it comes in I would say its about 5 inches wide and 8 inches tall and the kava is sealed in a ziploc bag inside of the "straw/hemp" bag. I was a little disappointed the straw bag's drawstring doesn't work as smoothly as I though because I wanted to re-purpose the bag but I'm sure I can still use it for something. Overall best instant mix I've had thus far and it's a decent value considering it's prime eligible.

The convenience of an instant powder means that it's not going to be as good as regular kava, but sometimes you don't have the time to make regular kava. This is a really decent product, gives a nice warm, relaxing feeling. The taste is something between sassafras and licorice, all in all it's not bad - numbs the mouth for a minute or two. I use a heaping tablespoon and mix with about a shot and a half of water. I repeat every 15 minutes until I've had enough.
