Talk about exploiting indigenous people and profiting that doesn't necessarily benefit the Pacifikans.

Kava is great. Pacific Governments need to ensure their native populations get a better from it. Some buyers purchase the raw product at $5.00/Kg and up-selling it at say $80.00/Kg finished product. Kava takes 4-5 years to mature, after which it is fully uprooted for use. I know the Vanuatu Government passed a legislation on the minimum price for the raw product, which we at JustPacific Trading support for the reason that the grower gets a fair share for their effort.

On their website, They suggest mixing it with alcohol?! Did he not listen to the natives while he was on his "vacation"? Keep it real, stick with the root-what, cant handle a little mud taste, thought these two were dentists, they should be used to this stuff---this is not our drink, follow the locals; there is no other way!

guaranteed their drink is nowhere as potent as regular Kava Kava! Kava is not disgusting like he said!it numbs the tongue and taste unique but good. I wanna try it though

@EyesSeeToClear a lot of people have thought of this idea
-
I just cant listen to any of this anymore! I am so mad! Please leave our plants and our way of life alone...

These White folks will fuck up the Ava...It is only what it is because there are no additives aside from water. Keep the Ava PURE!!

I do hope they re-invest some of their profits into the communities where it came from. Otherwise you'd be proving the negative stigma that foreigners are only out to exploit good people. And I know what people might say, " well why don't the Fijians do it then?" I doubt very much any of the village folk are dentists and have the funds to invest in large scale production. Plus kava for us is not taken lightly there is strong cultural significance around its drinking.
Just for the record I thought of this mother fucking idea (herbal relaxation drink, anti-energy drink) years ago. I was going to put kava among other things in it, son of a bitch if only I could of managed the startup cost. Fuck this cocksucker and his elitist wife. Wow im only 21 and I sound like an old man with broken dreams....

Keep coming up with those wild ideas, some of them might be good. But everybodys got ideas, nobody wants to put in the work. Don't talk about what you're going to do, show people what you've done.
