Fiji Loa Waka® is the strongest Fiji kava we carry and one of the strongest kavas on the market. Typically Fiji is known for its weaker varieties of Yaqona (kava). Weaker varieties meet the needs of the local islanders who like to drink kava throughout the day. We were really pleased to discover this very different, unique, much stronger, yet balanced variety.
The all-around, powerful mind and body relaxation effects are what makes Fiji Loa Waka® one of our most popular kavas, receiving consistently high reviews. Fiji Loa Waka® is great for drinking at any time of the day. Smaller servings will calm you and lift your mood, while larger servings relax you physically too. Shipped to us fresh from the farm, freshness is guaranteed. This is an exceptionally high-quality, strong kava.

I’ve tried a few Kavas and this one is by far the most impressive. I agree with the more verbose descriptors above, but wanted to chime in that this is an excellent strong Kava. Very heady, relaxing and enjoyable. My new favorite!

Big fan of this Kava – been drinking Kava for 3 years and this is hands down my favorite Kava. Doesn’t take more than 1 or 2 shells to put you in a great place.

This root is blessed. Fantastical, scrumptious, outstanding. This is the real deal.

I have to agree with all the other reviews, this is by far the best Kava I’ve had both in strength and it’s qualities. The finer grind, IMHO, helps it to release more of the active ingredients, making your grog stronger. It also works well in the Aluball, I hope it’s OK to mention that here. And the results speak for themselves. I do however not recommend the fast prep method. Due to the fine grind, even a few hits in the blender and it’s so finely puree’d that the muslin bag gets clogged and you end up having to microstrain via a super fine mesh. You are better off hand kneading per instructions or using the above mentioned Aluball. The former takes longer but I feel more “at one” with the tradition and always use proper shells to drink the grog when I do this. I am not from the region this wonderful Kava comes from but I feel connected to the people who’ve come before me after drinking it if prepared traditionally.
I like to do 2-2.5 tablespoons to about two shells worth of water (approx 2/3 cup – 1 cup per “shell” if your shells are larger), sometimes going to 3 depending on how much kneading I do. I find that anything over 3 at this concentration will get you intensely happy and “krunked” as people like to say. It also mixes 2/3 Loa Waka with 1/3 Borongoru well for a very nice heady buzz mixed with a good overall lighter body buzz.
Overall, like everyone above has said, this stuff is pure and complete heady super buzz kava that will not let you down. It’s strong enough you will find that your entire attitude will shift once you start feeling the effects. And for me it lasts anywhere from 2-4 hours, with that initial buzz kicking in and then you just ride it.
I am not a fan of the taste of any Kava, I know some aquire a taste, to me it looks like chocolate drink and tastes less then savory. But Loa Waka’s taste is not too bad or bitter, and a pineapple or tart fruit chaser and the taste vanishes leaving your mouth happy and then your body and mind kind of escape. I’ve likened the effect of this particular strain to having a beer or glass of wine and then slipping outside of the alcohol buzz “vibe” into someplace special.
I do recommend if you can handle it, swirling it around in your mouth for a minute to really take in the numbness that Kava brings before swallowing. And it also mixes very well with coconut water or coconut milk for a more tropical taste. Note that the milk is thick and should be added after you’ve made your grog concentrate.
If you’ve never tried Kava, or have tried others and not really felt like you got what you came for, this will not disappoint. Do yourself a favor and get the larger bag, it will go fast as you enjoy it regularly.
Due to its strength, I do not recommend this one for a day Kava, especially if you go past say 3-5 tablespoons well kneaded. It will kick your butt and leave you a bit past driving or similar. It’s powerful effects are also great in weaker doses, 1 tablespoon to around 1cup of water well kneaded is enough to take the edge off of your day, give you a heady buzz and keep your happy flowing without being too “krunk” to function.
The best part is, it’s strong enough to party, heady enough to clear your mind and bring on the happy vibes, and seems to knead well bringing out the active ingredients without spending 20 minutes at the bag. If you use warmer water and knead, then let it cool and stir before pouring a shell, its a delightful grog.
This is my goto now and when I introduce others to Kava and the experience, they always tell me they are surprised at how much of a kava effect they get. And don’t forget, mix it with some body buzz strains, its a good overall feeling with a nice heady happy vibe on top of a calm body buzz. Put on some music or grab your drums or guitar and just ride it, talk with friends, listen to music, it doens’t matter. This stuff is the Kava that brings it all into focus and lets the world slip away.
Recommended hands down as a starter and for Kava fans who are experienced.

I love this Kava. It is very strong but still tastes great! Lots of euphoric headiness. I don’t have to use as much powder to my water ratio as I do with other varieties so it saves me money, which is a bonus! I am definitely recommending to all my friends!
