Kava-Kava (Awa)

We have a number of Hawaiian varieties including Moi, Hene, Spotted Hiwa, and Mahakea. Kava is a 3 year crop as it takes a minimum of 2 years for the kava lactones to develop to an adequate strength within the lateral roots. At last testing, the kava lactone content was 9-12%. No Kawa leaves or stems are used in any of our Kawa products.

Harvested organic kava is usually sold in three forms:

  1. Fresh/Frozen - The root is chopped into pieces with lateral roots attached, washed, drip dried and frozen.
  2. Dried Peices - Stems are cut 1" from ground level. The base and potent lateral roots are then chopped or sliced into small pieces. When dried there is 8-10% moisture content.
  3. Awa Powder - Dried pieces are ground into a water-soluble powder suitable for capping or direct consumption.
