Buzzy Dissociative Feeling

Which Kava gives you this ...well, buzz?
The heady vs heady dichotomy is not helpful at all.
I tried many different kavas and some pacific elixir charges had that, taveuni's secret too i think.
Palarasul had it to a small to medium degree, Melo melo did not, kela absolutely did not at all, completly absent.
What i mean is not that heavy body feeling, but that light body buzz, where it sort of feels like your soul has left your body.

Maybe a heavy leaning kava like Borogoru? Higher sedation coupled with the initial effects of kava may imitate that feeling to some degree.
I know they often use it in Pacific elixir so maybe that's where you were getting it from.

I know that high dose of some kava cultivars can start producing that kind of effect; that's basically how I am right now as I type this after a rather large Bir Kar session. Quite contrary to the "clear headed" review I gave it recently under normal circumstances!

Palarasul followed by Kelai and Melomelo indicates to me that you're looking for lower Kavain : DHM ratios based on what they did for you - thusly Borogoru is worth a try! KS also has a blend called Nakamal Nights which I thoroughly enjoyed some time ago.

(I may be quite wrong and hopefully a knowledgable vendor can confirm or deny this)

Thanks for your reply @Forretressqt !
Not sure i had pure Borogoru before, i always thought VKS Malekula Magic had it but now reading it was a blend with melo melo.
What im sure of is, that it is not headiness, otherwise kelai would be perfect. Its one of my least favourite kavas because the feeling is to clean, polished and unengaging.
Bir Kar i found also has this effect to some degree but to me it feels as if there are components working against each other...so weirdly enough i find it kind of exhausting.
One of my theories is that a the kava needs to have yangoning on position two or three.

I totally understand why the effect im seeking might not be as popular, years ago when it started with kava this effects always scared me, made me feel i had overdone it. Now its more like it hits the spot.

not entirely sure what buzz you are referring to, but it's a bit more dream/contemplative state of quiet detachment then perhaps Silesse might be a good fit?
