Description
Kraken Kratom started sourcing this white vein variety due to the overwhelming popularity of Red Maeng Da products, and it has quickly become another bestseller. Maeng Da means "Pimp Grade," and this product definitely lives up to that name. Native to Thailand, these leaves are harvested before they've been exposed to much sun and when their veins are still white, giving them a very preferable alkaloid profile.
Kratom trees have grown for millennia in the hot, humid climates of Southeast Asia, especially around the islands of Indonesia, and have been consumed in leaf or leave form by native people there for centuries. This botanical has become increasingly well-known in the West, with an estimated 10-15 million people in the US consuming kratom on a regular basis, and is now available in a variety of forms including leaf, powder, capsules, liquids, and even concentrated extracts.
Kraken's raw powders, leaf, and encapsulated products test at an average of >1.5% mitragynine.
