Europe’s Source of the World’s Best Kava
What is kava?
Kava is a perennial plant cultivated across Oceania for over three thousand years. It has been a culturally and ceremonially significant plant across the South Pacific for millennia.
In accordance with EU regulations, our kavas are sold exclusively for aromatherapy and natural textile dyeing. The dried roots carry a warm, woody-balsamic aroma with cultivar-specific character. The pigment-bearing compounds in the root bind to cotton, linen, silk, and wool, producing a spectrum of warm earth tones, from soft honey-amber to deep golden brown depending on the cultivar.
Europe’s Premier Source of Fine Kava
Kava Europe is the official European partner and exclusive distributor of The Kava Society (New Zealand), widely regarded as the supplier of the finest kava available anywhere in the world. Founded in 2011 by researchers at the University of Auckland, The Kava Society has spent over a decade selecting the most desirable noble cultivars and developing processing methods with their Vanuatu partner Root and Pestle that capture the character of fresh, just-harvested kava.
Their kava is harvested fresh and processed within hours, using proprietary cleaning and drying techniques that preserve maximum freshness and the root’s natural character. Every batch is laboratory tested and fully traceable to a specific cultivar and growing region. Nobody in the kava industry comes close to this level of care, and the kava they supply is as close to fresh, just-harvested kava as one can get.
Through Kava Europe, European customers get the same kava sold in New Zealand, with EU-based fulfilment, fast shipping, and no customs hassle.
