About The Position

At Botanic Tonics, we know our world is fast, noisy and distracting. It can easily leave us feeling tied up, strung out and not ourselves. Maybe you think the more supercharged you are, the better you’ll be. Maybe escape is the only way for you to truly feel free. We’re not judging — we just have a different point of view. Because we’re not a fuel for keeping pace with the rat-race of every day. We’re not an elixir that transports you through the clouds to a tranquil place. We’re kava products with blends of other naturally active ingredients, designed to bring you down to earth and into the present, so you can make the most of every moment. Why waste effort trying to quiet the noise when you can tune into it, to hear the one voice that matters? We believe choosing to engage with the here and now is more fulfilling. It makes us feel good, enriches our lives, and brings out our best selves. Be Present. Be You. When you can truly be there, you feel free.
