Nova Kratom Brand Review [2023 Update]

Nova Kratom is an established kratom vendor, known for stocking an array of strains at affordable prices. Of course, the company isn’t alone in offering that, but is Nova doing it better than other brands in the kratom industry, or are they one to avoid? Find out in this review.

I am here to give you the lowdown on all things Nova Kratom, so you can form a well-rounded opinion of this vendor. Keep reading to learn more about their products, whether their claims add up, and if you can consider Nova a genuine and trustworthy brand.

Without further ado, let’s start with an introduction to Nova Kratom.

Nova Kratom is an online retailer of kratom powder and capsule products from the United States. The company has no specific ‘About Us’ page but styles itself as a proud small-batch vendor focused on product quality and customer service. Pretty generic stuff.

Oddly, I could not work out where Nova Kratom is based. The company website mentions a United States Office and Warehouse and has hours of operation based on Mountain Standard Time. It is not a dealbreaker, but Nova lacks the personal touch that many top vendors have.

The ‘Contact Us’ page indicates that Nova Kratom is owned by Monica, who also authors several of the site’s blog posts. There is also a comprehensive FAQ section covering product, order, and shipping queries. So, while the Nova website is a little sparse, it still has plenty of valuable info.

You could be forgiven for thinking that Nova Kratom has a limited range, given the vendor only stocks kratom powder and capsules. However, what this brand lacks in product types it makes up for in strain and vein color variety. Indeed, the Nova store has an impressive level of choice.

Let’s go over the crucial details of these kratom products. Any prices referenced were correct as of June 2023 (the time of writing). 

The kratom industry may have changed over the past 20 years, but finely-ground powder is still the most widely available and affordable product type. If you don’t mind kratom’s taste or preparing the herb before use, this versatile, low-cost kratom product is a brilliant option.

The Nova Kratom store features an array of powder strains, including green, red, white, and yellow vein kratom. They also stock the Trainwreck blend. Perhaps you favor an uplifting and energizing white kratom, or maybe you fancy the slower effects of a red.

Whatever you prefer, you will find it here. Nova Kratom claims to use premium-grade, alkaloid-rich kratom with at least 1.5% mitragynine. They also provide a rundown of each strain’s effects to help you get up to speed with the differences between your Malays and Maeng Das.

You can also purchase a two-way or four-way split kilo from Nova Kratom for the same price ($88) as a kilogram of a single strain. This offer should attract those who like to customize their experience and enjoy several kratom strains simultaneously.

Strains: Green Borneo, Green Maeng Da, Green Malay, Red Bali, Red Dragon, Red Gold, White Borneo, White Maeng Da, White Thai, Yellow Elephant, Yellow Vietnam, and many more!

Buying Options: 250 grams, 500 grams, 1000 grams

You can also purchase all the strains sold at Nova Kratom in capsule form. Many people opt for kratom capsules over powder, despite the higher price tag. You might consider the increased expense worth it for a product that eliminates kratom’s flavor and is easy to take on the go.

According to Nova Kratom’s FAQ page, Green Maeng Da is the strongest strain, but they deemed the lightest a subjective question. If you aren’t sure where to start, take some time to read through Nova’s descriptions of different strains.

Nova fills the capsules with finely-ground kratom powder but never mixes in additives or fillers. Unfortunately, I could not find details on the capsule material, size, and the quantity of powder in each capsule. With any luck, this information is provided on the product packaging.

Strains: Green Dragon, Super Green Indo, Super Green Malay, Red Borneo, Red Maeng Da, Red Thai, White Dragon, White Sumatra, Super White, Yellow Maeng Da, and many more!

Buying Options: 250 capsules, 500 capsules, 1000 capsules

Nova Kratom talks the talk on product quality, lab testing, and being a trusted vendor. But I am somewhat skeptical that they walk the walk. As of June 2023, I could not find lab results for any strain, which is evidently a reason for concern.

Furthermore, the vendor is not certified as GMP-qualified by the American Kratom Association (AKA). And while only a small percentage of kratom brands have this approval, it is another example of why I do not have 100% confidence in Nova Kratom’s collection.

That said, Nova's products come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Even opened products are still eligible for a refund if 85% or more of the contents are remaining. This is not the policy of a company that doesn't think its products are up to standard.

While I still have reservations about Nova Kratom, this guarantee reflects upon them well - it shows that they operate as a genuine vendor and aren’t trying to scam you. As a customer, you can take a chance on this brand without putting yourself at much financial risk.

In addition, Nova Kratom publishes product reviews from verified buyers, although there is no indication these are third-party authenticated. But still, the brand has taken some vital steps to build transparency and trust, so I cannot be too critical here.

With the jury still out on Nova Kratom, I wanted to get a better understanding of what the kratom community thinks of them. And by that, I mean perusing through Reddit for the thoughts of passionate consumers.

I found a peculiar post discussing Nova Kratom on r/kratomreview101. Redditor u/Mama_miyaaaaaa described the brand’s kratom as having an “almost spicy like” taste! But more importantly, they said, “It still hits.” However, not every commenter was a fan of the vendor.

I spotted another thread talking about Nova Kratom on r/Vendorsofkratom and saw an intriguing comment from u/Ikickedagator1ce. They said Nova was “maybe not premium quality, but they’re consistent, affordable, fast to get you your stuff, and have great customer service.”

These were revealing comments that highlighted how people seek different things from vendors. It seems that Nova Kratom gets the basics right, offers a solid shopping experience, and won’t cost you a fortune. And that is all some kratom users are looking for.

Firstly, Nova Kratom is an affordable vendor. They sell kilos and split kilos for less than $90, and orders over $39.99 come with free shipping and two 50-gram sample packs. That is excellent value and service from a kratom brand that also helps you expand your horizons.

I cannot determine whether Nova’s kratom capsules are worth the money without knowing the size of the caps. But considering what the vendor charges for powder, I imagine these products are also marketed at a fair price.

Ultimately, the kratom quality is the deciding factor. With no immediately accessible lab results, purchasing from Nova Kratom involves some level of risk. But the money-back guarantee means you won’t be left out of pocket if you have an unsatisfactory experience.

Overall, Nova Kratom is a no-frills vendor promising high-quality kratom and great customer service. Provided they are shipping out consistently decent kratom, I would say this company’s products are worth the money.

While I am not completely convinced by Nova Kratom, many users talk highly of this U.S.-based vendor. Transparency-wise, there are multiple areas for improvement. But if you find a strain you like and get regularly good results, Nova Kratom could suit your needs well.
