Watching this brings me back to my summer mission trip to Fiji in 2017. Every night we would sit in a circle with out Fijian families and drink kava, dance, and song. It was the best days of my life and Fiji will always have a high place in my heart. Bula!

For you noobs, always have this before food on an empty stomach, food nullifies the effects big time...like beer its best at the end of the day after a hard days work it absorbs into your bloodstream alot quicker, if you don't feel numbness around the mouth after your second to third cup it isn't strong enough, if you feel numbness straight after the first cup means your drinking with Fijians.

Kind of like you wanting to have a grog of kava with a friend in specific scenario, and not in others. It's all because of the action mechanism kava uses in our CNS. It doesn't replace neurotransmitters like normal prescription drugs. It enhances endogenous neurotransmitter activity. (source, we've been in the kava industry for almost a decade now.

Drink it warm, and add cinnamon, and a scoop of brown sugar. But if you drink it traditional, its like vegetables. If you ever had a toothache and used Ambisol numbing agent, it is similar. Basically it tastes like a raw brown potato sliced in water, and a little numbing. Dont drink too much lol

Ayahuasca? Not at all, that's a serotonergic psychedelic, totally different. Kava's effects resemble those of drugs like alcohol or anxiolytics, as it is a depressant. What's interesting about this drink is that it has many active compounds, some of them interact with gaba receptors (like alcohol and benzodiazepines), some are reuptake inhibitors of noradrenaline or mao inhibitiors (which increase dopamine), and apparently one of them has cannabinoid activity. All of them contribute to its unique effect.

Alcohol, benzos, phenibut, etc. They are all very dangerously addictive and can have horrible withdrawal. But not kava. However, you need to be picky about where you get it from and in what form. I highly recommend to not mess with any supplements or extracts. Buy the root powder and make it as a drink the normal way. And get it from a well-respected supplier such as Nakamal At Home or a similar site. I get mine from the former.

"Peppery" is how I'd describe it. If it's well mixed and closer to room temperature, it's pretty ok. It's a nice buzzy sensation. Terrific for unwinding. LIke a very mild marijuana high but not goofy. I wouldn't compare it to booze. I almost want to say "caffeine but relaxing."

Its more in Tonga too.

In Vanuatu, you drink only one shell and you immediately start feeling the buzz...

I just wish it tasted better. Sure works, though!

Tried a root extract yesterday (250 mg of kavalactones) to fight my insomnia, it helped me doze off and have nice dreams, but I woke up in the middle of the night as usual and couldn't sleep then... so I guess it's too weak to fight my insomnia :(
