Redefining What It Means To Get "Buzzed"
Kin Euphorics vs Alcohol
In our task-oriented daily lives, many of us turn to supplements or tinctures to support mood and energy. We take B-complex vitamins for sustained energy, Maca to boost libido, or passionflower and lavender to relax. But when it comes to social or recreational settings, the options at the bar often narrow to tequila, wine, or beer-flavored ethanol.
This disparity led us to ask: Why can’t we replicate the same intentionality and benefits in our recreational lives that we bring to our wellness routines? That’s where Kin comes in. We wanted a smarter, better buzz—a perceptible elevation in mood that enhances agency rather than diminishes it. Every Kin drink is designed with this goal in mind: to help us feel relaxed, present, grounded, and optimistic.
Many of our guests report experiencing a gentle warming sensation as they sip a Kin drink—their shoulders relax, their breath deepens, and they feel noticeably more aware of their surroundings. This shift isn’t just imagined; it’s the result of carefully chosen, science-backed ingredients. For instance, Rhodiola Rosea, a key component in some of Kin’s formulations, has been studied for its ability to increase oxygen absorption in the brain, enhance mental clarity, and boost stamina. In social settings, this translates to a sense of calm presence, less frenetic energy, and more meaningful engagement.
The euphoria Kin aims to create isn’t about escape or dissociation. It’s about feeling wholly embodied in your experience—energized yet calm, joyful yet grounded. Unlike alcohol, which often numbs and depresses the system, even Kin’s most calming tonics work to center and elevate without sedation or intoxication.
By redefining what it means to get "buzzed," Kin offers an elevated alternative—a buzz that aligns with presence, power, and intentionality, allowing us to show up fully for ourselves and others.
