Island Kava Co Review

1/31/20241 min read

Alright friends review time! Today we are taking a look at Island Kava Co which is an & up and coming brand you all should check out. We love seeing fellow military making waves in the kava community, and the owner Ed is a veteran and his wife is a first responder, so the people behind this are service minded and love kava!
.
The offering we tried was their Fijian Savusavu cultivar, in a medium grind powder. First off, their packaging was awesome, and the kava came with a cool little coconut shell and a small strainer bag in the kit. For first time kava users especially, what a cool little introduction to kava.
.
Talking with Ed, he said this kava was balanced but leaned towards body relaxation and a heavy feeling. Most Savusavu cultivars we’ve tried have definitely fit in this category, but both of us found this to actually be more heady & euphoric. Charles had a bit of hard time sleeping the first night using, not so much Heidi, but regardless we moved the next sessions to more daytime/afternoon, where it shone.
.
Straight up, this kava was pretty potent. Heidi was good at one shell, and Charles (who typically needs more) actually found on the second shell this was a smack in the face 😂 It gave that very familiar kava rush, but hit hard and definitely had that more euphoric buzz than a heavy kava would.

Cool brand, hard hitting kava, and cool people behind it. Check these guys out at https://topislandkava.myshopify.com/pages/Island-Kava-landing-page
