Obviously this is the number one question we get here at Nakamal At Home. The answer is very simple. We sell the best kava. We ship orders out faster than anyone else in the industry. We have unmatchable customer service. We have better prices than anyone else that sells kava online. We have been selling kava from America's first kava bar since 2002. We want to make sure you don't waste your hard earned money on low quality kava products that don't work. We go deep into the jungles of the south Pacific ourselves to select the premium kava to import and sell. We can keep going like this for hours but you get our point, right? Buy from the best, forget the rest.
Is Your Kava 100% Roots?
Is Your Kava 100% Pure?
Not a day goes by that someone calls us or emails and asks us if we sell pure kava. The answer is unequivocally yes. We guarantee that all of our kava products contain no stems or leaves. We sell only 100% pure kava root products that contain nothing but underground organs from the kava plant that have never seen the light of day. We do not mind answering this question every day of our lives because it is an important question for our customers to ask. Probably the most important question now that we think about it. Don't buy kava from dealers that cannot tell you what is in it.
Is Your Kava Organic?
Is Your Kava Organic?
Do we sell organic kava? Yes, we do but it is not certified USDA organic. You will just have to take our word that no chemicals or pesticides have been used on any kava that we sell. The market for organic products is growing in the United States. Our customers are becoming more and more concerned about whether or not the kava we sell is organic. We know that our kava is organic because we have personally travelled to the regions where we buy our kava from and there is no way that these farmers could afford chemicals even if they wanted them. Kava is grown on outer islands far away from civilization and transporting goods is very difficult. People on these islands only transport items that they really need because it is not worth the effort to move anything else.
We also know that our kava is organic because our shipments are frequently and randomly tested by the FDA before they are released for us to distribute. We have never had one shipment of our kava get refused entry into the U.S. because it was contaminated with chemicals but we have heard plenty of stories from other companies that have. We know our kava is organic and we hope that you trust our statement. We wouldn't sell you anything we would not put into our own bodies. That's for sure. Karma's a bitch.
Why Is Your Kava Lower Priced?
Why Is Your Kava Cheaper Than Everyone Elses?
One question we are asked frequently is about why our kava is so much cheaper than our competitors. We cannot blame people for asking us this question because we offer premium kava products for sale at low prices. It sounds like a scam. We assure you that there is no scam here.
We prefer to say that our kava is economical so it does not sound like a knock off from the East. The reason is because we follow a click and mortar business model. That means that we run a kava bar/retail store as well as our website. We acquire our kava directly from farmers in the south Pacific and we get it for a better price than everyone else as a result. It is our goal to deliver the right products, to the right people, at the best price possible and stay in business long term. Hey, we can mark the price up and sell you the same kava and claim it is super duper kava that demands an excessive premium if that makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. Try our kava and you will see that it is not cheap, it's just lower priced. Maybe we are just bad businessmen. Quick, buy some kava today before we change our minds about our pricing.

Why would you want to put perfectly good kava kava in coffee?
For one thing, kava coffee would not taste good. Adding kava to your favorite cup of java will surely destroy the wonderful taste of the coffee. You do drink coffee coffee for its taste right? Kava is never consumed for its taste.
Secondly, coffee is full caffeine. Kava and caffeine don't mix really well. Caffeine is a stimulant and kava is the exact opposite. Mixing the two can negate the effects of each which results in your spending money for nothing. We do not recommend mixing kava kava and coffee. We do not even recommend drinking kava kava and coffee within a few hours of each other. Experience at our kava bar has shown us that kava amplifies the effects of coffee (or stimulants in general) and usually leads to sleeplessness and restlessness. For best results do not consume any stimulants within 6 hours of consuming kava. Just because coffee is called kava in some parts of the world do not be fooled. Kava kava coffee is not really a good product. We dont have any high quality coffee to sell you but we can sell you some high quality kava kava root.

Is Kava Kava the same as Kava?
Is Kava Kava the same as Kava?
Yes. Kava Kava is a marketing term coined in the USA. Some marketing experts believe that the term kava kava was created by companies selling kava pills. They believe that by repeating the word kava twice on the label the product had a greater chance of being spotted by a potential consumer, even when the bottle of kava kava pills was put back on the shelf facing the wrong way.
But to answer your question, theoretically, yes, kava kava products should be the same as kava products. In all reality, many kava kava pills are not 100% pure. They have other ingredients such as St. Johns Wort and Valerian root inside of them. Are these kava kava products that are not 100% pure the same as kava? NO, they are not! Real kava, as it is prepared and ingested in the south Pacific is 100% pure and always consumed in a water based extraction. Nakamal At Home prides itself in only selling kava products that are 100% pure. So make the right choice now, choose kava from Nakamal At Home.
Is Kava Kava Safe For My Liver?
Is Kava Kava Safe For My Liver?
Is kava safe for your liver? The question of whether kava kava is safe for consumption has been around since 2002 when Germany issued a warning that kava could cause liver problems. The rest of the world took note on this because Germany is well known for herbal research. Some countries such as the United Kingdom and France decided to ban the commercial sale of kava products to err on the side of caution.
No proof has ever been presented that kava causes liver damage. The World Health Organization (WHO) recently completed a study on the hepatotoxicity of kava products and concluded that kava products made using cold water extraction techniques seemed to be safe and all others were not recommended. CLICK ON THE BOOK COVER TO THE LEFT TO READ THE FULL WHO ASSESSMENT OF THE RISK OF HEPATOTOXICITY WITH KAVA PRODUCTS REPORT THAT WAS PUBLISHED IN LATE 2007.
In order to ensure your safety you should not consume kava in conjunction with alcohol or pharmaceuticals that are taxing on the liver. Drinking kava that is made using cold water seems to be the safest way to consume kava. Natives of the south Pacific do not have liver problems and they have been drinking kava for thousands of years this way.

Can I Mix Alcohol With Kava Kava?
Can I Mix Alcohol With Kava Kava ?
No kava products should ever be mixed with alcohol. The FDA does not recommend mixing kava and alcohol either. Kava increases the hepatotoxicity of alcohol and increases chances of alcohol poisoning. It also increases the chance of liver failure if kava and alcohol are mixed regularly. We at Nakamal At Home recommend that persons that consume alcohol on a daily or regular basis not drink kava. Or wait at least 24 hours for all alcohol to be gone from their systems before consuming any type of kava product.
Most kava alcohol mixing will lead to nothing but trouble. We have seen and heard of people getting rashes on their face and getting bad cases of diarrhea from mixing the two. Don't say we did not warn you!
