Testing Our Product

Botany Evolution is proud to announce that we test all of the products that we import and distribute, to ensure top-notch quality. We stand behind all of our products and have Certificates of Analysis available to back our products 100%.

Traceability is important to us, so each bag has a batch number. From that batch number, we can trace the powder back to its origins. You can also browse below all of our COAs from the previous (2) two years (they are updated regularly). Simply match the batch number on the front of your bag to the serial number below. Here, you can view, download, and print your Certificate of Analysis. If you need to request a COA from a batch of kava more than 2 years old, please email us. 

Also, If you recently purchased Kava from a different vendor and are unsure of what you bought, you can send it to use for testing, and we will provide you with lab reports on its composition. Click Here for More Information
