Maeng Da Thai Kratom Powder (Yellow Vein)

Maeng Da Thai Yellow-Vein Kratom powder is from the leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa kratom tree. The leaves have a characteristic network of white veins on the back of the leaf.

Maeng Da translates literally to “pimp grade” in Thailand, where it originated.

The Mitragyna speciosa Kratom tree contains the alkaloids mitragynine and 7-hydoxymitragynine. The yellow vein Maeng Da Thai strains have one of the higher alkaloid content levels found in the species.

The kratom tree has been cultivated and its leaves harvested by experienced growers for generations, using techniques passed down over the years.

The drying method will change the final chemical composition of the leaves. The final product depends completely on what type of process the leaf went through when it was grown to when it was dried after harvesting. All of the differences of kratom varieties come about during these parts of the process!

Kratom has been used in the areas where it is native for hundreds of years, if not longer. The tree has many traditional and medicinal uses in the areas where it is native, and the local cultures have found ways to incorporate it into their belief systems and rituals for a long time.

Our raw powders, leaf, and encapsulated products test at an average of >1.5% mitragynine.
