Quote from Kirk Hauffman

'Kava is the Gifts of the Gods, the Spirits and the Ancestors to parts of the Pacific. It is nowadays also the Gift of the Pacific to the World, if only that World is intelligent enough to embrace it, accept it and use it wisely'.
Also:
'It has been a pleasure to have the opportunity to talk to Dr Sovick on this wondrous and important topic. Kava has taught me much over the last five decades. I hope that those listeners who have not yet had the opportunity to consume it in the proper respectful way will one day eventually be able to do so''.
