Just when we think we couldn’t be more proud of the Kava products featured on the Kava.com Kava Marketplace, along comes a Kava manufacturer that redefines the Kava experience for us. That manufacturer is “Root of Happiness”; an aptly-named company that offers only the most premium Kava powders and tincture that you can find.
The owners of Roots of Happiness also own a Kava Bar in Rancho Cordova, CA. (Yes, they’re the Root of Happiness Kava Bar on Facebook.) They offer a personalized experience with only the cream of the crop, Premium Kava that may just re-define what you thought the Kava experience might be like. The two owners are not only deeply passionate about this amazing plant, they source it, manufacture it, package it, and offer it for sale themselves in a pristine, FDA-compliant facility right in Sacramento, CA.
Their obsession is our gain as this is one of the 3 types of Powdered Kava Root they offer, all with their own unique properties. They offer the Premium Fijian Ground Kava Root, Premium Vanuatu Ground Kava Root, and Solomon Islands Premium Ground Kava Root. They also have a Kava Tincture that literally knocked our socks off (O.K., not literally).
In all seriousness, though, there is something almost magical about the Root of Happiness Kava. We’re not sure if it’s the passion that goes into every package or their passion for Kava in general, if it’s the attention to detail in every step of the sourcing and manufacturing process, or just the sheer artistry of Tyler and Travis. It’s easy to tell that their entire product line is a labor of love, and that radiates through every one of their wonderful products.
We found the Fijian Kava variety to be somewhat smoother, slightly less excitable sensation than the Vanuatu and Solomon Island varieties that Root of Happiness also offers here. But the punch that both the Solomon Islands and the Premium Vanuatu varieties deliver will leave you wanting more. All three of their Premium Powdered Kava varieties offer a very pleasant repose that lasts longer than one might be used to in relation to Kava, so please, use responsibly.
Choosing a Root of Happiness variety of Kava really has everything to do with with what you want to get out of our experience. Choose your favorite from the list below, then kick back and enjoy when your package ships same day.
As we say in the product description for the Root of Happiness Kava Tincture, of all the products we carry from all the manufacturers, we are perhaps most proud to carry this wonderful Kava Tincture and Ground Kava Root. We’ve tried countless Kava products, from gum to candy to extracts to tinctures, and along with the outstanding Kavalactone Paste from Kona Kava Farm, the Root of Happiness products stand out amongst the crowd.

Hi,
I did order the root of happiness kava tincture because I read such a great review on it here. The trouble is that it didn’t seem to have much of an affect on me. I was wondering if maybe I took it with too much/too little water, or Perhaps got a bad batch OR maybe as you mentioned in the review, perhaps the tincture is not the right selection for what I’d like get from the experience? I use kava extract regularly for anxiety and panic attacks at work as well as pretty bad anxiety before and during spoken word performances or public speaking. Is there a product in particular for these types of scenarios? Or how should i take the tincture that I have? Please help???? thanks do much!
We’re sorry you’re not having the experience you expected! Let’s see if we can help at all: Like Kona Kava Farm, Root of Happiness offers standardized Kava products. That means each product is manufactured to GMP standards in an actual lab, that infuses exact percentages of Kavalactone into the product each and every bottle. Their product consistently tests at about 6% Kavalactone, so it’s highly unlikely that it’s a “bad batch” of Kava.
Next, Root of Happiness does recommend that you take their product by placing it under your tongue. Have you tried this? It should have an almost immediate effect. And yes, there’s a chance this isn’t the product for what you’re looking for. The tincture when taken under the tongue, can be an immediate happy boost, but may not provide the longer term assistance with anxiety. For that, you might want to try blending it in a liquid and drinking that, or you might want to consider Kavalactone 30% Capsules, or even better; the product specifically designed for anxiety; ‘Awa Calm.
You can return the unused tincture if you’re unhappy, as per our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee, and perhaps try ‘Awa Calm instead.
Mahalo,
