Palarasul holds special significance as the variety that inspired the Kava Society’s entire single-cultivar range. Harvested from small mountain gardens surrounded by ancient forest, this kava captures the essence of Santo’s highlands. One of our lightest and smoothest powders, Palarasul offers exceptional ease of use. The refined texture reflects meticulous processing. The powder’s scent features notes of cashew, lemongrass, and subtle spice. Traditional cultivators value this variety for its distinctive properties and character.
