GROWN BY OVER A THOUSAND FARMERS

Root & Pestle works with more than a thousand traditional kava growers across Vanuatu's islands. We don't compete and grow our own. Instead, we work alongside the people who have cultivated kava for generations, supporting practices that sustain both quality and the communities that depend on kava farming.

HARVESTED TO ORDER, PROCESSED AT THE SOURCE

Every batch is processed at our own HACCP-certified facility on Espiritu Santo within 24 hours of harvest. We match supply with demand so nothing sits waiting. Only mature, noble plants four years and older are selected, then cleaned, peeled, precision-dried and vacuum-sealed before the product ever leaves Vanuatu.

EVERY BATCH TESTED

We test every batch using UHPLC analysis, the same standard used in leading kava research. Full chemotype profiling, microbiological screening, and kavalactone verification. Certificates of analysis are available for every product in our range.
