Over the last 9 months or so, I've been trying out many entheogenics, botanicals, herbals or whichever of those names takes your fancy. My best experiences to date have been with kratom and I enjoy it a lot, using it quite regularly (the only real side effect being the odd case of constipation for me). However, I had read many times about Kava Kava but it had taken me a while to find some of decent quality and of the 100% powdered root kind, instead of the capsules. Living in the UK, we cannot buy Kava in any shape or form as it has been banned for many years, with scary stories of liver failure spread across the internet to ward off those adventurers who might endeavour to try it anyway.
So, as with all my little herbal packages, I was very excited when it dropped through my door this morning, courtesy of my unsuspecting postman. And by chance, it had been two days since I'd had any mind altering substance (including alcohol) so I expected I was in good clean shape to see what mother earth had in store for me this time.
On opening the little ziplock bag of my 100grms of the Kava powdered root, I was struck by the not unpleasant smell of clove and maybe a little ginger. I was struck by the not unpleasant smell of clove and maybe a little ginger.
