Epik Instant Kava Silesse 250g

You will receive one 250g bag of Epik instant kava single chemotype kava root powder by purchasing this product, complete with a batch number. This chemotype is called Silesse and is a rare drinking kava. Silesse kava is a noble kava that rarely finds its way outside of Vanuatu. The island it comes from is very remote and there isn’t much trade happening there with kava.

Lateral root to stump ratio- The average ratio of lateral roots to stump is 30/70 for this kava. That means there is approximately 30% lateral roots and 70% basal stump in this product. 

Chemotype- This batch has a chemotype of 432615 according to our current HPLC lab tests. *Note- Chemotypes for water based concentrates are a little ambiguous. Silesse is a noble cultivar. Instant kava is an aqueous extract and some lactones are partially soluble in water and may have been washed away during processing causing other non or less soluble lactones to be more prevalent. 

Grind- Extra super fine. This is not micronized kava. Epik Instant Kava Silesse is an aggregated kava powder with particle sizes between 40-80 microns if you need nerdy specifics. 

Yield-Yield is subjective based on end users preference, however, we recommend using five grams of instant kava powder per 4 oz. of non alcoholic liquid of your choice.  This 250g bag of instant kava will yield 50 servings of kava to drink. 

Origin- This kava was sourced on Malekula island in the Republic of Vanuatu.
