Kava
Traditionally used as a ceremonial drink in the Pacific Islands, enjoyed for its relaxing, mood enhancing and mildly intoxicating effects.

Jim R. I have tried the BirKar and the entire process was interesting and engaging.
I had spoken to people who had drank Kava overseas and had an idea of what to expect.
This flavour was peppery and quite enjoyable to drink.
I did feel relaxed but definitely not euphoric.
I will use it again because the whole process can be considered a ritual and it's fun.
Hi, thank you for your detailed review. Keep trying it and see if you notice the euphoria as it can be subtle and show up as a simple sense of pleasantness. We have been having it with a shot of coffee and getting a euphoric buzz form it. Thanks Laura
