Europe’s Home of the World’s Best Kava

Trusted across the EU since 2018.

From The Kava Society

Widely regarded as the supplier of the finest kava in the world. We are their official European distributor. kavasociety.nz

One ingredient, tested

Noble kava root and nothing else. Every batch is laboratory tested, and the certificate for your exact batch is published.

Authentic character

Roots are washed, peeled and dried within hours of harvest, in temperature-controlled driers rather than in the sun. These methods preserve the root’s original character, including its colour and aroma. In the EU, kava is sold as a natural textile dye and botanical home fragrance.

Shipped from within the EU

Dispatched from Poland within two working days. No customs procedures or import charges inside the EU customs union. 14 day returns and full EU consumer protections.

Every kava is different

Several single cultivars and a handful of blends, all grown in Vanuatu. Each is traceable to a named growing region and has its own character. Colour and aroma are listed on every product page.

Most are available in two forms

New here? Start with Pacific Elixir. It sits mid-range for colour and aroma, and comes in both forms: traditional grind and instant.

Farmers harvesting kava in Vanuatu

Where our kava comes from

Kava Europe is the exclusive European distributor of The Kava Society, the New Zealand specialist founded in 2011 by researchers at the University of Auckland. Regarded for years as New Zealand’s top kava supplier, their products are sold across the country and meet all relevant New Zealand safety and quality standards. Together with their Vanuatu partners, they pioneered making verified single-cultivar kava available outside Vanuatu, spending over a decade selecting noble cultivars and refining how each one is processed.

Their kava is harvested to order and processed within hours in HACCP-certified facilities, dried under controlled temperature rather than in the sun. Every batch is tested and the certificate is published; each bag is traceable to a named cultivar and growing region.

All of that is why we believe nobody in the kava industry comes close to this level of care. The certificates are the part you can check for yourself.
