Built Differently.
For Better Kava.
Kavain was founded on a simple belief: the world deserves access to the Pacific Islands' finest kava, processed with the care and precision that this remarkable plant deserves.
We've built our company differently. Rather than brokering products through intermediaries, we own and operate processing facilities in Fiji and India, work with dedicated partners in Vanuatu, and have established deep relationships with farming communities — giving us control over quality at every step.
Our state-of-the-art technology bridges the gap between freshness and convenience, allowing us to deliver products that unlock kava's full potential—for relaxation, balance, and vitality.
