We discuss the growing trend in the kava industry of marketing and selling "Single Strain/Cultivar" kava. A cultivar is a specific plant or group of plants intentionally selected for their desirable traits. In the case of kava, these plants are genetic duplicates of the original due to the plant’s inability to reproduce sexually. Different kava cultivars arise through somatic mutations, which result in variations such as internode height, leaf size, and chemical composition.
