Description
A new addition to the Kraken catalog, this fan favorite comes directly from an exclusive, mature plantation in Southeast Asia. Here, the climate and soil come together to produce a strain renowned for its alkaloid content and balanced profile. Definitely one of the most sought after kratom varieties on the market - if you've tried others, you'll be blown away by Kraken's Red Dragon.
Kratom trees are also known by their Latin name, Mitragyna speciosa, due to the combination of the compounds mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine that are found in their leaves. Naturally occurring chemicals that are common among many plants, these compounds are called alkaloids. Found especially in flowering plants, some alkaloids you might recognize are caffeine, quinine, nicotine, and tomatine.
Kraken's raw powders, leaf, and encapsulated products test at an average of >1.5% mitragynine.
