drinkroot Reviews

Nothing beats drinkroot’s connoisseur blend, for nighttime kava, when comparing to literally every other kava product — or type of preparation — on the market. Literally. No matter how many other vendors’ of kava that one tries, no matter how (or how well) one prepares kava, nothing will ever top drinkroot’s instant kava. This is a gift not to be taken for granted, as this kind of product (and quality and service) are literally absent within the entire kava market domain. Idk if it’s ...

Redecorating my cookie jar with the labels of all my drinkroot blends, because frankly they are all amazing. So many more labels to add, from SO many empty tins I’ve gone through over the years. Statera is a great substitution for Epicure, both of which day-blends are only topped by the Bir Kar reserve blend. So even with me putting Statera in third place, for day blends on this site, it is still amazing, and can substitute for Epicure and Bir Kar when those two are out of stock, without comprom...

A good way to keep the kava nightly regimen going, when the connoisseur packets aren’t available. This is a decent substitute when waiting for the connoisseur blend to restock. Similar alkaloid profile, effects, sedation, etc. Same goes for using statera instead of epicure. Note: still, I do prefer using the connoisseur over the barava, and I do prefer the epicure over the statera — but when it is so hard to keep this shop stocked with those staples, these (barava and statera) are good tempo...

My kitty likes me more when I drink Drinkroot’s instant kava. It’s true. Regarding the reserve pack: superb. Bir Kar: like a better form of epicure, goes great when dissolved in coffee for a caffeine-jitter-eliminating effect, balancing out energy levels while remaining fully wakeful. Borogoru: great for the afternoon, indeed. Especially if you are “bored out yo’ gourd,” too! Not especially sedating, but not as uplifting as Bir Kar, Statera, or Epicure. This one’s effect profile lands somewh...

When the Instant Connoisseur Blend and Instant Borogoru are both sold out, this is always the way to go, if you use Drinkroot brand instant kava for sleep. If I were simply reviewing in a manner that rated each product against one another, barava is likely the only one I’d give 4 stars, since … compared to the rest of the Drinkroot instant kava collection, Barava is always a little underwhelming, takes a bit more to work for my needs (sedation, consistent with the indication for barava’s chemot...

So cool to have the most high quality, ultra mega clean and pure kava, in raw form, to make myself — especially ideal for times when I’m running low between buying batches, waiting on the next delivery: this will hold me over, when my low supply makes me need to resort to backup measures, which will be the force driving the will to make kava from scratch, for the first time, out of the best there is!!! WHY DO I FEEL LIKE IM SHOUTING BY NOW ( lol ) ?!? Also cool to have the wakea back. Even if ...

Love the new Borogoru batch, so strong, so perfectly sedating. Amazingly anti-inflammatory. As soon as I drank it, I literally felt a chill go down my body, that erased all the symptoms of sweating and pain from inflammation that resulted from yet another 13 hour day hospital shift, and allows me to get sleep and wake up to do another 13 hour day, the next day, without being groggy at all. Entirely refreshed. Best batch since the o.g. Connoisseur Blend, hands down. Kudos, Kyle and Drinkroot fam!...

Wow! I am a beginner kava explorer and cannot thank this family enough for escorting me on this voyage! I had always been curious about kava, discovered DrinkRoot on Amazon, but have since been on a journey with the different offerings from their site. From Barava which has cured my insomnia to this Palarasul to enhance my matcha for studying and video gaming, kava has helped enhance every aspect of my day. Thank you so much not just for the roots, but for SHARING the "roots of the roots" throug...

Wow this is my new #1 daytime strain. Palarasul is amazingly refreshing, relieving, brightening, and anti-inflammatory. Major stress reduction and mood boost. Favorite daytime kava, hands down (and my nighttime favorite still remains to be a 1:1 blend of the instant Connoisseur and Borogoru varietals). That’s saying a lot, since I’ve tried and used all of the entire drinkroot product selection, for years, and I am positive this is the #1 best non-sedating strain (while nonetheless retaining anti...

Best possible kava one could get. They are responsibly transparent when it comes to their products themselves, along with the purity, sourcing, and testing of such. This is a diamond in the rough, because…while the supplemental and herbal wellness industry is entirely unregulated (no oversight whatsoever), drinkroot consistently demonstrates, time and time again, that they bear the strictest and most responsible standards. To be fully clear, if there were even a hypothetical oversight committe...
