Mighty Roots Instant Green Kava
Premium Lateral Roots Blend: Pure Laterals, Rapid Onset
A strong, heady blend of 100% lateral roots from prized noble Vanuatu cultivars including Melo Melo and Borogoru, now available in our instant format. Laterals contain the highest kavalactone concentration and are richest in kavain, delivering rapid onset with cerebral intensity. The use of balanced/heavy cultivars provides a balanced finish despite the initial rush. While we generally prefer the natural ratio found in our single cultivars, we created this premium blend for those seeking extra potency and rapid cerebral character.
Not recommended for beginners due to strength and sharper, more bitter flavour profile, this is for experienced kava enthusiasts seeking pure lateral intensity.
Character: Rapid, cerebral onset from the high kavain content, fast-acting and mentally intense. Despite the intense start, the use of balanced cultivars like Melo Melo and Borogoru creates a satisfying, balanced finish. Highest kavalactone concentration of any product in our range.
Taste & Aroma: Sharp and fresh. More bitter and peppery than balanced blends or our single cultivar products, a robust character typical of pure lateral roots.
Instant Format: Traditional kava powder contains coarse, woody fibres that must be strained out before drinking. For our instant kava, freshly harvested roots are washed, peeled, and have these fibres carefully removed prior to drying and milling into an ultra-fine powder. This is why you can enjoy it without any straining or kneading, just mix with water.

Organically Grown Noble Kava
100% pure noble kava from pristine volcanic soils. Our farmers cultivate specific single cultivars in regions best suited for each variety. Each plant matures for 3-5+ years using traditional organic farming methods passed down through generations.
Always Processed from Fresh
Each batch is made from kava harvested to order, never from old village-dried stock. Plants are inspected on arrival for the right cultivar, for freshness, and for contamination. Anything that doesn’t pass is rejected.
Cleaned and Dried to Fresh Perfection
Freshly harvested roots are meticulously cleaned and dried using bespoke methods developed over years of research and refinement. The process preserves potency, fresh aroma, and active compounds. Each batch is then vacuum-sealed or nitrogen-flushed to lock in freshness.
Every Batch Tested
Our kava undergoes comprehensive testing using UHPLC analysis (superior to standard HPLC), full microbiological screening, and chemotype verification in an advanced in-house laboratory. Every batch comes with complete certificates of analysis and exceeds FSANZ Standard 2.6.3 requirements.
