PurKratom Brand Review [2023 Update]

Choosing the right kratom vendor is crucial to having a safe and satisfying experience. Unfortunately, not all brands are up to standard on product quality and transparency. However, PurKratom has established a reputation as a brand you can trust.

In this review, I will discuss why PurKratom is highly regarded in the kratom industry and the wider community. I will touch upon the company’s ethos, the various products they stock, and why PurKratom is more credible than many of its peers.

Let’s set the tone for this in-depth analysis with an introduction to PurKratom. 

PurKratom is a Florida-based kratom vendor trading in the retail and wholesale markets. According to the PurKratom website, the company has a physical address in Doral, Florida. But don’t worry: you can purchase their products anywhere that kratom is legal.

PurKratom’s ‘About Us’ page states that the team first learned of kratom’s benefits in 2012. They set out to bring the finest and freshest kratom products to market, sourcing the herb from the best farms in the world. And that can only mean one place: Indonesia!

The farms that PurKratom has teamed up with follow traditional practices. After being hand-picked, the kratom is dried in the sun and pulverized before being swiftly shipped to the United States. This ensures the kratom retains its freshness and potency.

I am impressed by the effort PurKratom has put into its website. The store has a professional appearance, is easy to navigate, and is teeming with information about the vendor and kratom in general. They even have a blog packed with all kinds of knowledge.

PurKratom embraces the old and the new with its product collection. Classic products such as kratom powder and capsules still have a place, while kratom-infused gummies and liquid shots make for exciting recent additions. Let’s dive deeper into the Floridian vendor’s kratom range.

Kratom powder will never go out of fashion. Despite its bitter flavor and lack of convenience, powder has remained a popular product type thanks to its versatility and affordability. Regardless of where you buy, kratom powder is invariably the cheapest product type.

And PurKratom is no different, with 2oz of powder available for a mere $9.99. Newbies will appreciate that every strain has a detailed product description. And with myriad kratom strains and vein colors for sale at PurKratom, all shoppers can home in on a perfect pick.

The vendor markets its kratom powder as premium-grade, 100% all-natural, and free from additives and fillers. And PurKratom’s powder is loaded with active alkaloids and flavonoids. This is all encouraging to see, and the independent lab results support these claims. Choose from more than a dozen strains and three tub sizes.

Strains: Gold Vein, Green Bali, Green Horn, Premium Bali, Premium Maeng Da, Red Kapuas, Red Sumatra, Red Thai, Super Green Indo, White Bali, Yellow Vein, and many more!

Buying Options: 2oz tub (56g), 6oz tub (168g), 9oz tub (255g) 

Even loyal kratom fans will admit that the herb hardly tastes fantastic. But don’t let that turn you away. Kratom capsules are an effective solution to the flavor conundrum - and these products make up a significant percentage of PurKratom’s total stock.

They sell an array of kratom capsule products, with sought-after strains such as White Borneo and Red Maeng Da taking center stage. PurKratom also has a selection of premium capsule strains. Thankfully, their site has plenty of information to guide you in the right direction.

The ingredients list shows PurKratom uses gelatin capsules, which is bad news for vegetarians and vegans. I could not determine the capsule size, but the label notes a 1000 to 1500mg serving size is equal to two to three caps. So, I would hazard a guess at 00-size capsules.

Looking for a pure, potent, and portable kratom product? These convenient, mess-free capsules from PurKratom could be just the ticket. All strains are sold in 100-count bottles.

Strains: Green Maeng Da, Red Maeng Da, White Maeng Da, Premium Green Malay, Premium Maeng Da, Red Bali, White Borneo, and many more!

Brands are always searching for ways to make kratom consumption easier - and that is what you get with PurKratom’s gummies. Tropical fruitiness replaces herby bitterness in the flavor department, ensuring these edibles aren’t merely convenient, but great tasting, too.

Each gummy contains 15mg of full-spectrum kratom extract, with PurKratom suggesting two gummies per serving. There are 10 gummies in every container and, therefore, five servings per purchase. Kratom edibles aren’t the cheapest, but these fruity chews are priced fairly.

Judging by the FAQ section, PurKratom creates its kratom gummies with vegan-friendly ingredients. Upon taking them, you may notice an improvement in energy levels and overall performance.

Kratom extract shots are also associated with convenience, portability, and discretion. And PurKratom brings that to customers with its unflavored, caffeine-free Maeng Da liquid shot. It’s organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, certified vegan, and free from additives. What’s not to like?

PurKratom’s Maeng Da Kratom Shot comes in a 15ml bottle, ideally divided into three 5ml servings. Each serving delivers more than 40mg of mitragynine and 3mg of 7-hydroxymitragynine. Vegetable glycerin, reverse osmosis water, and citric acid also feature on the ingredients list.

Potency is the best-known characteristic of Maeng Da kratom, so prepare for an alkaloid-rich experience if trying this one. And if unflavored kratom products don’t float your boat, PurKratom also offers an Espresso version of this shot.

PurKratom has been a constant presence in the kratom industry for more than a decade. “Where Quality is Our Priority” is the company’s slogan - and there is reason to believe them.

Let’s start with the big one: PurKratom is an American Kratom Association (AKA) GMP-qualified vendor. Brands can only become GMP-certified if they follow strict manufacturing and processing standards. And PurKratom lives up to these standards year after year.

However, AKA approval is still only one part of the puzzle. PurKratom strengthens its legitimacy further with rigorous third-party testing. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) doesn’t regulate kratom products, so it is up to independent labs to conduct checks.

PurKratom publishes batch-specific certificates of analysis (COAs) for their kratom products. And customers can access this data by searching for their product’s lot number on the PurKratom website.

I could not find a way of pulling up lab results before purchasing, but that is a tiny downside. Overall, PurKratom comes across as a legitimate and responsible vendor.

With more than 29,000 verified product reviews, PurKratom sure is popular in the kratom universe. I scanned Reddit to discover more about the brand’s reputation. With several subreddits and many passionate kratom users, this is often a good place to mine for information.

Redditor u/Regular_Bee_5605 posted a detailed and mixed review about PurKratom on the r/Vendorsofkratom subreddit. While they did not think much of the Green Horn and Red Thai strains, they described the vendor’s White Indo and White Maeng Da as “phenomenal.”

In a post on r/kratomreports, Redditor u/Piercedprincess72 spoke highly of PurKratom’s Red Sumatra strain, saying it “had a nice to kick it” and that it boosted their mood.

Indeed, I could not find any publicly negative comments about PurKratom. And not only do kratom users like the quality of their products, but they are also fans of their customer service and speedy shipping.

PurKratom is not a cheap vendor. While 2oz of kratom powder for $9.99 is decent value for money, paying more than $40 for 9oz is less palatable. The brand’s other products are relatively expensive, too, although not necessarily more so than other AKA-certified and lab-tested vendors.

You can get sizable discounts with PurKratom by purchasing products on a bi-weekly or monthly subscription. It is also possible to pay for products in installments via Sezzle. These options are potentially attractive to regular kratom users with limited funds.

And if you don’t know where to start, PurKratom has Variety Packs and a Beginner’s Bundle for sale. This is the best way of sampling several strains and products without having to spend big. However, you must spend more than $75 for free shipping.

Considering the subscription savings, loyal and returning customers will likely find PurKratom’s products worth the money. But less frequent shoppers may prefer to look elsewhere.

PurKratom is an excellent company and a credit to the kratom industry. They respect both the herb and consumers by curating a first-class product range and being transparent and open to scrutiny. That said, these perks come at a price.

If you are happy to spend extra, PurKratom could work for you. But if you are scouting for bargains, this vendor might not be what you are looking for.
