There are strong distinctions between Vanuatu and Fiji kava, both culturally and the end product. Traditionally Fiji kava is drunk over an extended session, where each participant drinks numerous shells over the space of a number of hours. This being the case noble Fiji kava strains such as Waka and Lewana are normally milder both in taste and strength. A lot of people who are used to Fiji kava find the Vanuatu kava is too strong to what they are used to, thus it is wrong to right off Fiji kava as a lesser quality kava, simply put into context it is used differently.
