Before we begin, lets go over a quick history of the plant itself. The plant is actually in the pepper family and it's scientific name is, "Piper Methysticum". The plant itself is only known to grow naturally on the islands in the South Pacific. If you're looking to spot the plant, it's a small shrub typically with all green leaves. Traditionally, Kava is actually used for ceremonial drinks or medicinal remedies.
