Kava Whole Intact Dry Roots
These are whole, intact lateral roots of Fijian noble kava (Piper methysticum), aged five years before harvest. They are grown and sun dried on the islands of Fiji and come from an heirloom cultivar.
Lateral roots are the part of the plant highest in kavalactones, which is why traditional kava makers favor them. Whole roots are for people who want to grind their own kava fresh or prepare it the way it is done in Fiji. Grind the root, then prepare it like medium grind in a strainer bag.
