ABOUT KAVA

Premium kava crafted for calm focus and relaxation, blending tradition with modern quality standards.

What is Kava?

Kava is a plant native to the Pacific Islands, where it has been used as a ceremonial and social drink for over 3,000 years. Known scientifically as Piper methysticum, kava is a member of the pepper family and is renowned for its natural relaxing properties.

Traditional Use

Historically, kava was reserved for special occasions including weddings, village meetings, dispute resolution and the appointment of chiefs. The drink played a crucial role in Pacific diplomacy and social bonding.

Modern Culture

Today, kava has evolved into an everyday social drink throughout the Pacific. Kava bars operate in towns and villages across the islands, and most Pacific Islanders enjoy kava at least once a week in social settings – much like Australians might gather at a pub.

Minimum 5 Years Maturity

Younger kava plants lack the depth and quality of properly aged roots. We only source kava that has matured for at least 5 years.
