UFO Landing Pad Officially Opens in Hawaii!
I know what you’re all thinking—what the heck does this story have to do with kava kava? Truthfully, I may be stretching convention a bit by calling this “kava news”, but it’s such a quirky, fun story that I couldn’t resist! More to the point, guess where this new UFO landing pad has just opened? Right across the street from Uncle Robert’s Kava Bar in Kalapana on the Big Island of Hawaii!! Ahem.

Read MoreProud of Our GMP Kava!
Something we’ve been absolutely terrible at advertising (we’re usually quite terrible at advertising ourselves), is the fact that 100% of our Kava products are manufactured in an FDA-compliant, GMP manufacturing facility. That’s something we’re pretty darn proud of, as there’s automatically a certain level of quality that each and every product must meet, from the label, to the package, to the contents of that package, to the way it’s marketed, to any claims made on it. Every one of the products we offer goes through a very rigorous series of tests that...
