Red Vein Kratom

Red Vein Kratom – All You Need To Know

 Of all the types of Kratom, of all the varieties of Kratom strains – perhaps the most respected and sought-after is the Red vein Kratom. The Red vein Kratom is sold widely throughout the US as well as around the globe. Because of high demands throughout the year and a huge fan-base, the red vein Kratom is imported in huge quantities from Southeast Asian countries – primarily Indonesia. This popular variety of Kratom is also commonly found in Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Brunei, Myanmar, and Papua New Guinea.

In this detailed article, we will apprise you about its history, origins, variations, and all the products that are derived from it. We will also tell you little tricks-of-the-trade that will assist you in buying great quality Red vein Kratom products at a great price. After all, in this age when there are so many Kratom vendors operating in the US, it is very important to know how to tell a good Kratom product from a not-so-good one. After reading this article we are sure that you will know a thing or two that will help you identify the authenticity of Red vein Kratom, or for that matter any other Kratom product.

Let’s start with explaining what is Red vein Kratom.

What is Red vein Kratom?

Red vein Kratom is one of the three primary Kratom colors. For those of you who are new to the Kratom scene, the color of Kratom does not mean the color of the final product (Kratom powder). Instead, it refers to the color of the central vein within the Kratom leaf at the time it is harvested.

Why the color of the central vein matter? And what does it indicate? Before we dig deeper into the explanation of Red vein Kratom, it is pertinent to answer these two questions. For that let us talk a bit about the tree from which Kratom is sourced.

The Kratom tree, which is scientifically known as Mitragyna Speciosa, is an evergreen tree that is found abundantly throughout Southeast Asia. The hot and humid climate of this region in the world is particularly well-suited for these trees that absolutely thrive. The Kratom trees give out leaves throughout the year. These leaves are processed into Kratom powder (we’ll talk about that a bit later). But not all Kratom leaves are the same. This is where things get interesting!

The main component within the Kratom is the set of alkaloids. The quantity and quality of these alkaloids actually determine a lot of factors for which Kratom is known. When the Kratom leaves are younger, the level of alkaloids present within them is quite less (low volume). Nature has selected a way to display this low volume by color-coding. These young Kratom leaves with less alkaloid concentrations have a green-colored vein running through them. The Kratom product that is sourced from these Kratom leaves is known as Green vein Kratom.

As they age and grow older – at about half their average lifespan – this vein color changes to that of a white. This indicates slightly higher levels of alkaloids. These Kratom leaves are termed as White vein Kratom or simply White Kratom. In their final stage, when the leaves are fully mature and well-aged, their vein displays a red color. This means that the alkaloids and flavonoids have the highest possible concentrations. The Kratom that is sourced from these leaves is named as Red vein Kratom.

Here are our detailed blogs on the subjects if you want to know more about the two main alkaloids in all Kratom strains: Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine.

Red vein Kratom has a unique and distinct set of characteristics. Its impressive alkaloid profile is what makes it so popular among the new and experienced Kratom buyers. It is quite understandable that many people term Red vein Kratom as the quintessential Kratom variety.

Etymology

The historians and etymologists are not quite sure what are the origins of the word Kratom but one thing is for sure, it is not known in the native areas with this name. In fact, there are many names that it is referred to in different regions of Southeast Asia. These different names are Biak-Biak, Cratom, Creatum, Gratom, Ithang, Kakuam, Katawn, Kedemba, Ketum, Krathom, Kraton, Kratum, Madat, Maeng Da Leaf, Mambog, Mitragyna Speciosa, Mitragynine Extract, Nauclea, Nauclea speciose, Thang, and Thom.

In the contemporary online discussion forums where Kratom enthusiasts are found discussing various aspects of this herb, such as Reddit Kratom, you will also see many people misspell it as Krat9m. We don’t mind them calling it with any name as long as they are the Kratom fans and supporters!

Where Does Red vein Kratom originate From?

Short answer – all over Southeast Asia. But the most renowned country that produces and exports huge quantities of Kratom including Red vein Kratom is Indonesia.

Indonesia is the largest producer of Kratom in the world. It is also the number one exporter of Kratom to the US as well as the rest of the world. Even though the internal sale of Kratom is not allowed in Indonesia, the export of this herb earns the country valuable foreign exchange. This herb is also a staple for a big number of growers – all from rural regions – helping them earn their livelihood. Not just that, the high demands in the western world of this herb has actually helped these tribal families turn around their lives, improve their living standards, and generate a dependable income for themselves.

Here is our blog that talks about the Kratom effects on Indonesian economy.

Now the question arises. How do these native farmers and growers do it? For your information, just so that you are able to appreciate the amount of effort and time that goes into the production of Kratom, let us go over the entire manufacturing process involved in the production of Kratom.

Manufacturing Process

The manufacturing process of Kratom is easier said than done. Luckily, we don’t have to go through that process physically to understand it. But in our opinion, we should at least understand it so that we can be more appreciative of this botanical herb. Understanding this Kratom manufacturing process is also important to understand the nitty gritties and tell the difference between a good Kratom product and a bad one.

Growing

The traditional farmers select the most suitable ground, with perfect exposure to sunlight and the right ground gradient, to plant Kratom seeds. These seeds become plants within a matter of weeks but these young plants are not able to give out any Kratom. The farmers have to wait several years for the trees to grow and become tall so that they are old enough to give out enough Kratom leaves that can be converted into Kratom powder.

The older the trees, the better is the quality of the leaves and the final product that is produced from them. Hence, it is a long term investment for these patient farmers. It is particularly hard for the new farmers to enter the business because of the same very reason. There is no getting around this waiting game. Whether it is Red vein Kratom or any other Kratom product that you buy, you can be sure that it is coming from trees that took years to mature and finally be ready to produce Kratom.

Knowing all this is a little humbling, isn’t it!

Harvesting

When the trees are mature enough to give leaves, the harvesting process begins. The hard-working harvesters spend a good part of their days out in the scorching sun and humid climate to pluck the Kratom leaves. The Red vein Kratom leaves are quite visible to the keen eyesight of these harvesters who pluck them either by hand or in some cases, an expert swing of a long bamboo stick that never misses its target leaf without any damage to adjacent ones.

After that, the red vein Kratom leaves, along with other ones are gathered in one place to be separated and categorized. This is yet another time-consuming process that involves a team of workers, working at a blinding speed to separate different Kratom leaves based on their vein colors. The Red vein Kratom leaves are gathered at one end of the room whereas the White and Green ones are separated at a different corner.

Once the leaves are categorized, they are taken to the next and perhaps the iconic process – Drying!

Drying

This process is not as physically demanding as other processes but it requires no less amount of skill and expertise!

The drying process is what follows the harvesting process. It involves drying the Red vein Kratom (and other varieties) naturally, without involvement of any artificial techniques. There are two ways in which it is usually done. Indoor drying and outdoor drying. Both have their pros and cons and selection of one depends entirely on the choice of the farmer.

When done outdoors, the leaves are piled up on a mat laid out in the open. Thereafter, our separated Red vein Kratom leaves are periodically exposed to direct sunlight for several hours in a day so that the water content within their molecular structure is evaporated to a considerable extent. This process goes on for a few days until the Red vein Kratom leaves are so dried that they become extremely brittle – ready to break at even the slightest of touches. And this is exactly how those farmers want them to be ready for the next stage in the manufacturing process.

Crushing

The dried-up Red vein Kratom leaves are taken to the next step of the process that involves crushing them into a very fine Kratom powder. This process, traditionally speaking, was carried out by hand using two a primitive hammer-like tool made out of wood. The leaves were poured into a thick wooden bucket, strong enough to take the blows. With the help of the hammer-like tool, the dried Red vein Kratom leaves were hammered upon again and again to crush them into a fine powder.

Of course, this was a physically challenging way of obtaining Kratom powder out of Red vein Kratom leaves but, there was no other option. Thanks to technology, this problem is now solved to a great extent. Electric crushers have now replaced those physically demanding manual crushing tools that were used in the past – with absolutely no drop in the quality of the Kratom powder.

Most of the modern farmers now use the latest crushing techniques but some stick to old traditional ways of doing it. There are even some who use a mix of both techniques. They say that they initially do it physically for their own satisfaction.

Of course we respect their choices, after all, we are only concerned with the quality and purity of the final Red vein Kratom product. As long as we are satisfied that we are getting authentic Kratom for our customers, we are okay with any crushing technique they use.

Quality Testing

When the Red vein Kratom powder is ready, before it is shipped to the US, we have it quality and purity-tested using a basic testing method on random samples collected from the shipment. The results of this preliminary test are obtained on the spot. If the sample Kratom is found to be below the required quality standards, the whole shipment is rejected.

We never compromise on the quality of our Kratom for sale. We boast that our customers are the most satisfied when it comes to the purity and authenticity of the Kratom they buy from us. We do not just maintain our standards, we continually make efforts to improve upon them.

Shipping Red vein Kratom Powder to the US

Our Red vein Kratom, after being checked for quality and purity, is packaged and shipped to the United States in airtight containers that protect it from the adverse effects of weather and humid air. The airtight packaging ensures that the Kratom stays fresh throughout the time it takes for the shipment to arrive to us.

But that is not it, before we accept the Red vein Kratom at our warehouses, there is another quality check.

Quality Testing in the US

This check is more thorough and done by the experts. The Kratom, is not only tested for its authenticity and purity – but also the presence of heavy metals or any other synthetic compounds. Unless the Red vein Kratom product we receive from Southeast Asia qualifies for our strict Quality Control mechanisms, the batch is not accepted. It is rare but to maintain the high standards that our customers expect from us, we sometimes have to reject entire batches. A price we are always ready to pay to keep our customers satisfied!

Storage

After receiving the shipment and testing it for quality, the Red vein Kratom along with all other types of Kratom is taken straightaway to our warehouses for storage without wasting any time. The exposure time is intentionally kept minimal so that the freshness is not compromised.

Our state-of-the-art warehouses are equipped with modern climate control systems that ensure that the Red vein Kratom is kept at the optimum temperature for its longevity.

Brand Packaging / Encapsulation

The last stage, in this long chain of processes, is the packaging. We, at Buy Kratom Bulk USA, not just have an attractive packaging for all our Kratom products including Red vein Kratom capsules and Red vein Kratom powder – in fact, our good-looking packaging has a very practical purpose.

Moving on, let us discuss all the different Red vein Kratom strains that are commercially available in the US market today.

Red vein Kratom Strains

The Mitragyna Speciosa has several subspecies that are better known as Kratom strains. These Kratom strains, varying from one geographical region to another, have subtle differences among them. These differences are mainly the slight differences in the molecular structure of all the Kratom strains, including varying levels and types of alkaloids. Each of these Kratom strains come in all the three vein colors. Red vein Kratom variety is also found in all the Kratom strains. Virtually unlimited combinations of the vein colors, strains, forms, and varieties of Kratom is what makes this herb so interesting!

Let us now tell you about all the different Red vein Kratom products that you can buy for yourself from any Kratom brand.

Red vein Kratom Products

Here are all the Red vein Kratom products that are available on the market today:

Red vein Asia Kratom

This strain is one of those Kratom strains that are not commonly available in the US. It originates from the jungles oft the native South Asian regions but now a few private farms in Indonesia have also begun the farming of this strain owing to its increasing commercial demand overseas. As the world began to recognize Kratom, more hidden strains including this one surfaced which were not as common before.

As stated earlier, the Asia Kratom is only grown at a limited number of farms or private forests in limited quantities. Quality Red vein Asia Kratom products are directly sourced from the mature leaves of the Kratom trees located in the private or hidden forests in Indonesia. To preserve the rare Asia Kratom trees from overburdening through additional harvests, the traditional farmers who grow them refuse to harvest the immature leaves for temporary financial gains. Through this selective and careful harvesting of their Asia Kratom trees, they ensure the longterm sustainability and survival for this rare strain.

Red vein Bali Kratom

Bali Kratom strain comes from the scenic island of Bali, Indonesia. About this strain, the historians and researchers disagree on its true origins. While some cite that it originated from the island of Bali, others opine that it actually comes from the islands of Borneo and Sumatra, with Bali just being used as a shipping port for this strain of Kratom and hence the name.

The Red vein Bali Kratom strain is typically high in demand all year round. This variety is a personal favorite of many Kratom enthusiasts in the US and across the globe as well. The popularity is attributed to the strong alkaloid structure within the molecules of the Bali Kratom leaves, thanks to the nutrient-rich soil of the native jungles from there this strain is traditionally grown and the most mature leaves that are sourced to manufacture this variety. Bali Kratom strain is also particularly resistant to adverse weather changes that can impact other strains adversely. Therefore, the Bali Kratom strain is readily available with the Kratom sellers, making its price relatively stable as well.

Red vein Borneo Kratom

Borneo Kratom strain, a very intriguing Kratom strain that originates from the third largest island on the Earth in terms of land area. Shared by three Southeast Asian countries of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei, the island is home to tens of thousands of plants and animal species, some of them found only on this island. Kratom trees are a common sight all over the island, thanks to the suitable hot and humid tropical climate. Kratom is popular with the local and native people of the island as it is a source of livelihood and an integral part of their culture as well.

Before this strain was made famous by the early pioneers of Kratom in the US, this strain was already popular with the local tribesmen inhabiting the island. Like other Kratom strains, the Borneo Kratom strains come in three varieties that are: red, green, and white. The properties and characteristics of Borneo Kratom strain changes with the increase in the alkaloid concentration in its leaves. The Red vein Borneo Kratom is sourced from the most mature Borneo Kratom leaves, hence it has the most impressive alkaloid profile of all the Borneo color variants.

Red vein Elephant Kratom

A very interesting name for a very unique Kratom strain. The Elephant Kratom strains gets its name from the shape of its leaves. The leaves, when mature, are relatively bigger as compared with leaves of other Kratom strains. Because of their additional weight, they give more of a droopy look like the ears of an elephant. That is how the name caught up. But talking about its characteristics, it has one of the most desirable alkaloids make up in the entire Kratom strain inventory, making it one of the most sought-after Kratom strains. In addition to the green and white color variations, the Red vein Elephant Kratom strain is readily available both in powder and capsule forms.

Red vein Horn Kratom

This Kratom strain is as elusive as it is fascinating. The reason is: it is particularly hard to grow as it requires several external environmental factors to be just perfect, if the horned Kratom leaves are to grow optimally. For this reason, not many Kratom farmers are willing to risk their income from annual Kratom produce by growing this Kratom strain. Subsequently, good quality Horned Kratom strain is not easily available from the Kratom vendors in the US.

A bit of research into the etymology of horn Kratom strain establishes that it was named after the characteristic kinks or spikes that are present all around the edges of the mature Kratom leaves. Out of the three varieties of the Horn Kratom, it is the Red vein Horn Kratom that is very famous for having one of the highest alkaloid concentrations among all the Kratom strains.

Red vein Indo Kratom

Coming from the mainland as well as many of the smaller islands of Indonesia, the Indo Kratom strain is named after its geographical origins. It has been well known to the native tribal people living in that area. However, the widespread popularity in the West is quite a recent phenomenon. Understandably, the demand of the Indo Kratom strain has been growing rapidly in the US over the past few years. The Red vein Indo Kratom is the highest in demand, owing this rank, to the highest level of alkaloids present within its molecules among all the three color variations.

Red vein Maeng Da Kratom

Unlike most of the other Kratom strains that are usually named after the places of their origin like Bali, Sumatra, and Borneo, the Maeng Da is not a name of any place of the region but rather a slang-word of local language that is loosely translated as the “pimp grade” or ‘the best grade”.

The showstopper – among all the Maeng Da color varieties – is undoubtedly the Red vein Maeng Da Kratom. The Red vein Maeng Da Kratom is extracted from the most mature, aged leaves and is one of the top-selling Kratom products across the US.

Red vein Malay Kratom

Malay Kratom strain takes its name from its land of origin, Malaysia. The color of Malay Kratom leaves are characteristically a darker shade of green. The leaves are oval-shaped and the Kratom extracted from Malay trees is locally known as ‘Keetum’. Generally speaking, the larger the leaf is, the higher the alkaloid concentration in it.

Malay Kratom has been able to get a lot of recognition among the US Kratom enthusiasts during the last five years or so. Among the green, red, and white Malay Kratom, different Kratom connoisseurs prefer different varieties based on their personal choices. But of course, the most-selling one is Red vein Malay Kratom. Both powdered and encapsulated Malay Kratom products are equally popular.

Red vein Sumatra Kratom

The Sumatra Kratom strain is etymologized after the vast Indonesian island of Sumatra. Located west of Java, the island of Sumatra is well known for its thrilling landscape comprising of smoldering volcanoes, rugged mountains, and lush green forests. Among those forests, one plant subspecies is commonly found which is known as the Sumatra tree belonging to the species of Mitragyna Speciosa.

Red vein Sumatra Kratom variety, among all the three varieties, is the most popular with new Kratom enthusiasts as well as the experienced ones.

Red vein Vietnam Kratom

Traditionally, Vietnam has never been famous for being one of the powerhouses of Kratom. But recently, as a result of some legal changes in the laws of the country, they have stepped into this industry big time. Many farms and private forests are coming up and supplies have started pouring in from Vietnam besides other Southeast Asian countries.

Having said this, the Kratom trees have always been present abundantly in Vietnam. The locals have been very much aware of the Kratom that is extracted from Mitragyna Speciosa leaves. With the start of Kratom business activities, the world has seen the addition of a new variety of Kratom strain known as Vietnam Kratom strain. The Vietnam Kratom is famous among the old-timers and the novices equally and is quickly gaining the recognition it deserves.

Out of all the three Vietnam Kratom color varieties, Red vein Vietnam Kratom is indeed the most popular.

Red vein Thai Kratom

Red vein Thai Kratom is sourced from the most mature Mitragyna Speciosa trees in Thailand. The Red vein leaves from this tree are harvested, crushed, and manufactured into Red vein Thai Kratom products. This strain is relatively new but is quickly gaining popularity in the US.

Watch out for this new kid in the block!
