Discover your inner peace with kava

Kava is a traditional beverage that has been consumed in the Pacific Islands for centuries. It is made from the roots of the kava plant and is known for its calming and relaxing properties. Many people find that drinking kava helps them to unwind after a long day, reduce anxiety, and improve their overall mood.

Our Elixirs come from a tropical leaf related to the coffee family that is indigenous to Southeast Asia, primarily Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. These elixirs have been used as a traditional medicine and many tribes in its native countries would chew on the leaves of the plant while working for its stimulant-like effects. There have been no clinical studies on the effects of the leaf, or the active alkaloid mitragynine, but people who consume it have reported varied effects depending on the strain consumed.

At the Nectar Lab we offer four strains: red, green, yellow and white. When drinking the white strain, people have reported feeling an increase in energy and focus and said it may be good for treating insomnia, depression, and improving productivity. When drinking the red strain people have reported pain-killing and relaxation-like effects. The green strain people have reported increased moods, euphoria, and mild stimulation. Despite which strain is consumed, effects usually set in about 15 minutes after consumption and tend to last 3 to 5 hours.

The kava teas are said to have been used by ancient civilizations as a natural anesthetic and aphrodisiac.
