Wakacon Vanuatu Waka Kava Powder - Premium Noble Kava from Vanuatu (16 oz)

I think it’s good for the money, it’s strong and very potent, and smells very woody with a hint of cinnamon. It does not taste like cinnamon at all though, but that’s to be expected with kava powder. It made me feel rejuvenated when I drank it and the effects lasted for 30 minutes or so, with no noticeable come down. It should be noted that kava produces a “reverse tolerance”, where the effects become more noticeable the longer you drink it, so that may be of concern to those just starting out or who are already sensitive to its effects.

This has become our staple for hand-mixed kava. We’ve tried a few different brands and keep coming back to Wakacon Vanuatu Waka because the quality and consistency are always on point. The grind works well for traditional kneading, strains easily, and produces a strong, smooth shell without being overly muddy. The effects feel clean and relaxing, and it has that classic earthy kava taste you expect from a good Vanuatu waka. We use this regularly for homemade prep and it hasn’t disappointed. If you’re making kava the traditional way and want something reliable with good potency, this is a great choice. Definitely staying stocked in our house.

Great effects but could be ground up more.

I usually get FVK Vanuatu but it was going to arrive way too late so I ordered this in the mean time. I would say it's not QUITE as strong but better than the KWK stuff I've gotten in the past. What I really like about it is it seems to be much more relaxing than the FVK stuff. FVK seems to be really strong but also makes me a bit too wired. I think FVK would be better during the day and this is better for night time. It's also a bit cheaper too.

I been drinking kava for 18 years and the taste on this one is on the lower to low mid end of the spectrum. Kava is an acquired taste. But there is definitely a spectrum and if 10 is the best, I’d put this at a 4.8.

I’ve tried probably 5 or 6 different companies and strains from different regions all ordered off Amazon and this one takes it by a mile. The others were alright and their price reflected it but I also went through it faster because of a lower potency. This one after a 12 oz cup the effects are noticeable. I’m using 1/2 a cup o kava root to about 2 qts or so of water which makes the 16 oz bag last about 7 days and that’s with going heavier on the weekends. They all taste like drinking a mud puddle and this one is no different but it does have a little spice to it. Definitely will buy this one again.

The reason I am giving Five Stars to this kava Product !!!! (Jefferythefijian) this kava is very very good take it from a real Fijian person and it has taste, mix ability, quality and value for your money!!!! Thank you to those selling this amazing Kava product . Jefferythefijian.

This product works exactly as it should. Normally I buy Kava from independent websites, but I figured I'd give it a shot here and I am glad I did. Faster shipping, equal effects, and essentially the same price. Kava is a calming product, and I tried it this morning and it did exactly what other brands I have bought do. It is not intoxicating in the same way that alcohol is, but it is strongly anti-anxiety. I would recommend that you don't drink it too often as Kava is pretty hard on the body, but once or twice a day may help curve cravings for other more addictive substances, or address anxiety in a much more natural way. Euphoria is mild with most Kava including this one, but noticable. The taste is awful to me, but I feel that way about all Kava.
