Is Kava The Same As Kratom?

No. They are two unrelated plants. Kava is the root of Piper methysticum, a plant in the pepper family from the South Pacific. Kratom is a leaf from a different tree in Southeast Asia. Rooted uses noble kava root only.

Will This Make Me Drowsy?

Focus is made for the day and includes caffeine. Unwind is made for the evening. Everyone responds a little differently.

How Long Do I Keep It In?

Place it between your gum and lip and leave it. It is strongest in the first 15 minutes and lasts for up to 45 minutes. No chewing or swallowing your pouch.

Is There Nicotine In This?

No. There is zero nicotine in every Rooted pouch.

How Many Pouches Are In A Tin?

Every tin holds 15 pouches. The Day + Night bundle includes one tin of each, so 30 pouches total.

Our Standard

Quality you can check.

We believe you should know exactly what is in every pouch. That is why we do not grade our own homework. Our formulas are tested by an independent laboratory for purity, safety, and label accuracy.

We publish the complete results, not a summary of the good parts.

Independent and accredited

Testing is performed by Swift Laboratory, an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited lab. The lab has no stake in our results.

ANAB Certificate AT-2969

Microbial safety

Each formula is screened under USP <61> and USP <62> methods. All six tested pathogens, including E. coli and Salmonella, were absent in both formulas.

USP <61> and <62>

Heavy metal screening

Lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury are measured by ICP-MS. Every result came in within the lab specification limit.

ICP-MS

Label accuracy

Caffeine, Cognizin®, L-theanine, and theobromine all measured at or above the amount on the label. Kava and ashwagandha identity was confirmed.

From The People Who Use It

What they say

Let customers speak for us

from 312 reviews

Perfect after a full day

This has become my go-to when I want something more mellow. I reach for it when I want a more mellow feel without making a whole ritual out of it. The pouch is slim enough that I can forget it is there. Really well done.

Rooted Botanicals UNWIND Kava Pouches (Mint)

09/21/2026

Good clean feel

The mint is crisp and the whole experience feels really clean. I like it before a long planning session or when I need to stay on task. The tin looks premium and the pouches are easy to keep with me. I can see myself keeping this stocked.

Jamie Z.

Rooted Botanicals FOCUS Kava Pouches (Mint)

Smooth mint

I was curious about a nicotine-free pouch and Focus genuinely surprised me. I like having it around for meetings, writing sessions, and long to-do lists. I like that the overall feel is smooth rather than over-the-top. Definitely ordering again.

Leah P.

Great way to shift gears

Unwind feels like the right choice when I want to bring the intensity down a notch. I reach for it when I want a more mellow feel without making a whole ritual out of it. The mint flavor is fresh without being too sharp. Definitely one I will reorder.

Riley Z.

Calm without checking out

This has become my go-to when I want something more mellow. It works just as well for a quiet weekend afternoon as it does at the end of a workday. Nothing about it feels too sweet or too intense. This one is staying in rotation.

Ashley A.

Clean mint and easy feel

This has become my go-to when I want something more mellow. Great for a slow evening, but I also like it during low-key afternoons. The pouch is slim enough that I can forget it is there. I like this more every time I use it.

Megan Q.

Easy choice

I ended up using both more than I expected, just at different times. Focus is what I grab when I want more lift; Unwind is what I grab when I want something calmer. Great way to keep both options on hand.

Caleb P.

Rooted Botanicals DAY + NIGHT Kava Pouches (Mint)

Really smooth

This has become my go-to when I want something more mellow. It is easy to keep around for moments when I want to dial things down. The packaging feels premium and the mint profile is really balanced. Unwind absolutely earned a spot in my routine.

Bailey N.

Unwind is the one

Unwind feels like the right choice when I want to bring the intensity down a notch. I reach for it when I want a more mellow feel without making a whole ritual out of it. The pouch size feels discreet and comfortable.

Nora Z.

If you are new to Rooted, I think the bundle is the easiest way to figure out what you like. Both tins feel polished and the contrast between them is exactly what I wanted. Both earned a place in my routine.

Jordan Y.

Really impressed

This is exactly the kind of pouch I wanted for long work blocks and busy days. I like it before a long planning session or when I need to stay on task. The tin looks premium and the pouches are easy to keep with me. Simple, clean, and easy to work into my day.

Cameron T.

Feels thoughtfully made

Unwind is calm without making me feel checked out. I like that I can decide when it makes sense instead of treating it like a sleep product. The mint flavor is fresh without being too sharp.

Nate X.

Best way to try Rooted

I like having both tins around and picking based on what I want from the moment. Focus feels more dialed-in to me, while Unwind is the one I reach for when I want to slow the pace down. The packaging is simple, premium, and looks great together. Really happy I tried both.

Hayden Z.

Focus stays in my bag

I wanted something simple I could use during the day, and this checks that box. I like having it around for meetings, writing sessions, and long to-do lists. The mint is cool and clean without taking over. Simple, clean, and easy to work into my day.

Alex Y.

Both feel distinct

The two formulas actually feel distinct enough that the bundle is worth it. It is easy to keep one at my desk and one in my bag depending on what I want. The mint flavor is consistent across both and neither one feels bulky. Really happy I tried both.
