■ Our story · San Bruno

From our family farm in Fiji to our bar in San Bruno.

Bay Kava is the shop and supply side of Kava Bar in San Bruno. The name is new; the team is the same.

Rakesh, the owner

The farm

Our kava is grown on our family farm in Fiji, and we have exclusive access to it. Every plant is aged over six years before it becomes Bay Kava. Plants of that age carry up to 50% more kavalactones than younger plants. The root ships from Fiji whole. Rakesh, the owner, grinds it fresh to order in San Bruno.

Where kava comes from

Kava has been grown, prepared and shared across the Pacific Islands for generations. Ours comes from our family farm in Fiji.
