Lateral Root- Temotu Purple Kava Single Cultivar | Solomon Islands

Batch: 4 Tasting Notes: Heady Our most potent kava. Lateral root only single cultivar kava is difficult to find outside of the Solomon Islands. They will usually mix it with Feo if its lateral root only as they're the only two noble offerings out of Solomon at this time. These 5 year + plants have time to mature, get rid of off flavors and experiences creating a truely heady experience while being smooth as a lateral root kava can be. The process I used for this sample is the one I use for every sample we do. We do that to give each kava a fair shot with a strong brew. 32 grams of kava poweder to 20 ounces of water or 600 ml. Blended for 4 minutes and strained well. Iced and consumed. We just like it better over ice instead of warm. So personal preferance there, but it's one easy way to make kava taste good, or just better. When the powder is dropped in the water and settles, there is a nice yellow tint. When blended however, the liquid becomes a dark brown color and smells a bit  nutt
