Fresh-pressed pour from a Lumanai bar

Our Craft

Not all kavais made equal.

Most brands buy an extract, cut it into a syrup, and slap a label on it. We don't. Everything at Lumanai starts from the root.

01 · Water only

No solvents. No CO₂.

Every batch is water-extracted from whole Fijian and Vanuatu kava root. Alcohol and CO₂ pull compounds that don't belong in your drink — so we don't use them.

02 · Small-batch

Made when it's ordered.

Kavalactones lose strength the longer they sit suspended in water, so we don't warehouse product. What you drink was made recently, on purpose.

03 · Real bar craft

Handled like a real cocktail.

Fresh-pressed juice, muddled fruit, aquafaba foam, house-made sugar-free syrups. Every drink is built with technique — not shortcuts.

04 · Clean base

Reverse-osmosis water.

The water is the biggest ingredient in every drink. We start with reverse-osmosis, so nothing in the tap ever makes it into your glass.
