One of the worst Flu’s I have had in a long time. Shell 1: Taste was way easier to deal with having the flu, so now taking Shell #2.. It is beginning to chill my body in waves almost – good shit.. Shell #3 Now I am beginning to Feel the Kava hit me nice, not too strong right now, but it is feeling awesome.<br><br><br><span style="color:yellow">Shells 4-6</span> I waited about 20 minutes then Drank Shell #4. Wow feeling awesome my body is in a state of super chill, no pain, very much like good weed and couchlock. Shell #5 I am feeling the heady part. This to me is a HEAVY BODY KAVA NOT HEAD. But….. By the time I drank Shell #6: I was in a highly sedated and chilled state. I slept 12 hours didn’t wake up like I normally do due to insomnia issues.<br><br><br><span style="color:yellow">Verdict:</span> I bet if you were in pain this Kava would knock that pain out of the park!

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Dr. Schmidt is nearing the end of his South Pacific tour, and it is clear that all kava producing nations are firmly behind the quality standards he proposes for kava. These standards will become part of the Codex Alimentarius International Food Standards, and will apply to all members. A complete list of these members can be found here, but obviously Vanuatu, Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, the Solomon Islands, and the USA are among them.<br><br>What this basically means is that two day kava is about to become illegal. Once the Codex standards are in place, the FDA should be changing their definition of Piper methysticum. Test methods will be revised, and two day kava will be excluded.<br><br>Personally I think this is a positive thing. Really doesn't effect me as I only consume noble kava. If you like tudie kava you best start stocking up!]]></content:encoded>

I was immediately surprised at the pleasant kava taste with hints of lavender and lemongrass. The juice seemed to vape nicely with no issues. I began to feel effects in about 5 minutes after about 4 medium tokes. A familiar sense of relaxation came over me that I am used to with powdered kava. A general sense of well being came over me lasting for around 2 hours. The effects are mainly heady with mild euphoria and muscle relaxation.

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[The Kavas Name: Kalm With Kava<br><br>The Vendor: Monsoon Beverages&nbsp; http://www.drinkkalm.com/home.html<br><br>Type of Kava: Noble<br><br>Pricing: Regular 16 oz. bottle (2 servings per bottle)...2 for $6 or 6 pack for $18&nbsp;  Concentrate...4oz.is $10, 10 oz. is $20, 30 oz. is $50 Concentrate is to be mixed with a 1 to 7 oz. of water ratio.<br><br>Shipping: Medium priority box with tracking<br><br>Service: Excellent...received tracking within 2 hours and product arrived in 3 days from Montana to N.C.<br><br>Packaging:<img class="go2wpf-bbcode" src="http://nebula.wsimg.com/c70d3d67c87e2d6f7f74bd69351a995f?AccessKeyId=3EB9C4ECA210E9552884&amp;disposition=0&amp;alloworigin=1" alt=""> <img class="go2wpf-bbcode" src="http://nebula.wsimg.com/001f3a37a592bad1575bd284b389bfd4?AccessKeyId=3EB9C4ECA210E9552884&amp;disposition=0&amp;alloworigin=1" alt="">&nbsp; The Concentrate looks like a hot sauce bottle.<br><br>Texture: basic liquid although the concentrate is thicker<br><br>Prep used: Regular- just refrigerate and enjoy( 1 16.9 oz bottle contains 2 servings)&nbsp;  Concentrate- Add 1 oz. of concentrate to 7oz. of water.&nbsp; Concentrate is 2.5 times the potency of a regular serving.<br><br>Setting: Home after work at 5pm on an empty stomach....had not used any other products that day.<br><br>Color: reddish orange<br><br>Flavor:&nbsp; Guava and passion fruit...contains 2g of sugar per serving(he is working on replacing it with stevia)..11 calories per serving<br><br>Experience: I mixed the concentrate with 7 oz. of bottled water and gently stirred. My first sip reminded me of the taste of a sweet mixed drink like a mai tai or a zombie with very subtle kava taste. As I consumed the beverage I began to feel a slight numbing of the mouth and can feel my muscles relax from the stress of the day. There is no comparison to the taste of grog so a taste anxiety&nbsp; should not be an issue or stomach discomfort. I continue to feel more calm and relaxed as I finish the beverage.<br><br>This product is different from traditional and instant types of kava. If you are looking to get krunked&nbsp; you will be vastly disappointed in this product but I feel it does exactly as the name implies that&nbsp; it provides relaxation and stress relief. Again this is more a heady product and I would doubt if any one would receive much pain relief from the kava.<br><br>The regular brand can be found in some grocery chains in western USA and they are working with Whole Foods as a distributor as well. The concentrate will only be sold online as to help prevent abuse and to help insure the safety to the general pubic.<br><br>For me this product will never replace my dry root preps or micro kava but will keep it around for times when a little stress relief is desired and time or location is limited.<br><br>Pros: Easily portable<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Good for Travel<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Good introductory drink for kava newbies<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Pleasant taste<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Might be a way to get your significant other to share in your love for kava<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <br><br><br>Duration: around 45 mins. on empty stomach<br><br><br>Effect Target: Example: Head 90% Body 10%<br><br><br>Would you recommend this: Yes<br><br>]]></content:encoded>
