Kelai Kava Instant Green Kava Tea – Epi

Description

Our Kelai kava tea is shade-grown on the fertile volcanic slopes of Epi.  A collective of small-lot farmers first begins by organically raising the kava in their gardens for 5 years before selection. Next, they hand-harvest, peel, and thoroughly clean the lawena and waka roots.  After drying in the South Pacific sun, we lab test our Kelai kava to ensure its nobility and potency.

Kelai is a rare cultivar grown only on the island of Epi (formerly known as Tasiko or Volcano Island). The farmers that grow it take great pride in it and tend to save it for traditional cultural events or special occasions. If you’re looking for a beverage to have in a relaxed social setting with friends, or an uplifting drink to recharge in peace, it’s a great option.

Our Commitment to Sustainability:

Coral Reef Restoration

We fell in love with the ocean at an early age through scuba diving and underwater photography (maybe The Voyage of the Mimi also had something to do with it). Within our lifetime,  there has been an accelerated decline in the health of coral reefs worldwide. Coral reefs are the keystone of life and abundance that the oceans provide to humanity.  Many of the village communities we work with rely on local reefs as fish nurseries for their local fishing grounds to feed their families. As part of our commitment to combating global climate change and restoring our coral reefs to their former glory, 5% of our profits will be donated to non-profits focused on the herculean task of restoring our coral reefs.

As part of our company ethos, we strive to provide premium products with a minimal impact on our environment. We are committed to utilizing the most sustainable packaging options currently available.
