Hmmmmm ... one of the books I referenced, makes mention of an "oral spray" but I haven't seen a nasal spray delivery system on the market yet. Personally, I don't think I'd try snorting the raw or freeze dried powder and I certainly wouldn't recommend it. My experience with the high concentration raw powder convinces me that kava can be extremely potent, and I'm really not looking for that level of effect. Also, I'd be somewhat hesitant since Kava is in the pepper family (as in black pepper, not capsicum). The powder even tastes a little 'peppery', and I don't rank a dose of pepper up the nose as a pleasurable experience (sneezing jokes aside). With that said, just out of curiosity, if anyone has tried it I'd be interested to hear their experience.
