What people are saying
★★★★★“Krazy for Kava”
Ever since my wife and I visited Kavahana in Santa Monica, we’ve been hooked on kava. We start most mornings with kava, a cup of joe and jazz. Kavahana is a great way to start the day! Highly recommended!!
★★★★★“Loving it”
We visited the shop while on vacation in Santa Monica last year and haven’t stopped ordering since. It’s super nice with coffee! Expert tip: mix with a frother!
★★★★★“Authentic stuff”
We went to Fiji a couple of years ago, and we drank kava, with the locals, at their bars/homes. Kava Nectar tastes, smells, and looks just like what we had. Also, the tingling, calming, and socializing experiences were the same.
