What is Kava?
Kava is a psychoactive plant, that can offer support and assist people in the psychedelic realm, sobriety, and in the holistic wellness space.
Kava is a plant native to the South Pacific Islands. It belongs to the Piperaceae family, which includes plants like black pepper. Kava has been used for over 3,000 years in traditional cultures for its medicinal, communal, and ceremonial purposes.
The part of the kava plant that is used is the root. The roots are ground into a fine powder or shredded and then mixed with water to create a beverage. This traditional kava drink is consumed socially and is known for its calming and relaxing effects. You may have heard that the traditional kava + water combo that a lot of people drink at kava bars tastes like dirty water or chalk. But not our Kava Chai- and that has more than a little to do with the pure local honey we use.
Furthermore, you may have come across information about the potential risks of excessive Kava consumption - and it's important to be aware of these concerns. However, rest assured that our specially crafted Kava Chai is formulated with safe doses in mind. With our Kava Chai, you can enjoy a delightful cup without any worries about crossing a line. Indulge in the perfect blend of Kava and spices, knowing that you're experiencing the benefits of Kava in a controlled and secure manner.
