What Should I Order?

If you are new to kava, start with something beginner-friendly. Traditional kava has an earthy, root-like flavor that some people enjoy immediately and others need time to get used to.

Good first-visit options may include:

Dark Matter kava shell
“Dark Matter” is one of our most popular offerings. It is cinnamon brown sugar flavored kava and is easier going down than plain kava. Our recommendation is to try it with some creamer added for a smooth, cereal milk like taste.

Traditional kava shell
The simplest way to experience kava.

Flavored kava drink
A more approachable option if you are unsure about the traditional taste.

Coffee, tea, or another non-alcoholic drink
A good choice if you want to visit the lounge first before trying kava.
