Sovereign Kava is North Carolina's first kava bar — a founding piece of Asheville's alcohol-free social scene, open since 2010 (originally as Vanuatu Kava Bar) and on Biltmore Avenue since 2017. It serves hand-prepared traditional South Pacific ceremonial kava, kava cocktails, kratom and Mitra teas, and local Buchi kombucha in a late-night bar setting that stays open past midnight. It is alcohol-free but not substance-free — kava and kratom are the house pours — which it discloses openly.
