Koa Kava Vanuatu Review
7/10/20231 min read


Been waiting to try this!! Koa Kava dropped their new Vanuatu strain and we were stoked to finally pick up a bag and bring you all a review 🔥
.
Vanuatu strains are known for being on the heavier side, which is right up our alley. Heavier strains are more body relaxing, and tend to fare better for inducing sleep and not hindering it. We are big fans of their original Tongan offering and had high hopes.
.
Initial thoughts, this kava smelled strong and was a very coarse powder. We would HIGHLY recommend using a strainer bag for this kava, as an Aluball had a hard time really straining this. Prep with a strainer bag of your choice to really do this kava justice, and it produces a nice dark grog with a more earthy, deep taste as opposed to their Tongan.
.
Effects were what we expected, a nice body relaxation and tension relief perfect for after a workout or long day of physical work. Don’t expect a euphoric, social mood with this, but more of a relaxed, chill on the couch and listen to some music or a good one on one conversation type vibe.
.
On our first try, we had a night of weird side effects but ended up being from some bad food we had. All of the rest of the sessions we had with it were side effect free and very enjoyable. This is a perfect evening kava to add to your arsenal, and if you have any product questions specifically you can also hit up Serge (IG @stayrootedkava) who is their rep and an all around good dude 🤙🏼
