How to use

Powdered leaf 'toss and wash' or tea.

A worn timber kitchen table in late-morning light: a cream ceramic bowl of pale sage-green powder in the foreground, a brass spoon holding a little of it, a glass of water, and the labelled jar standing further back against a plastered wall.

Green kratom

Not a strain name. A vein colour.

Mitragyna speciosa is a tree in the coffee family. Ours comes off one organic farm in Uganda, and we sell the milled leaf in three vein colours; this is the green. No additives, no fillers, nothing blended into it.

A young kratom tree in bright sun photographed from below: large glossy leaves in opposite pairs along reddish woody stems, red earth at the foot of the trunk and other trees blurred green behind.

The tree

A tree in the coffee family

Kratom is Mitragyna speciosa, and its best-known relative is coffee — both sit in the Rubiaceae. It is a tropical tree rather than a shrub or a herb, and it puts out large glossy leaves in opposite pairs along reddish woody stems. The leaves are the product. Nothing else of the tree is used.

It is native to Southeast Asia and has a long history of traditional and ceremonial use there and in Africa. This jar is not from Asia. We buy from one organic farm in Uganda, in East Africa, and import from them directly — African-grown kratom is uncommon, and it is the part of this jar that is hardest to find anywhere else.

Three fresh kratom leaves laid side by side underside-up on linen over a timber bench, a hand holding the middle one flat. Two have pale green midribs; the third runs a clear red-brown from stalk to tip.

The vein

Where the colour comes from

Green, red and white are not three plants and not three recipes. They name the colour of the midrib and leaf stalk running down the centre of the leaf, which is either pale, or green, or flushed a clear red-brown. Turn a leaf over and it is the first thing you see. The rest of the leaf looks the same whichever it is.

In the trade that colour is read as a rough record of the leaf's life — when in its growth it was picked, and what happened to it between the tree and the mill. One thing it is not is the colour of the powder: milled, this comes out sage-olive, and the colour in the name belongs to the vein.

Vein colour only gets you so far, though. Strain names in particular are heavily marketed. The differences between batches are real, but ninety-nine times in a hundred they come down to where the leaf grew, which subspecies it is, how it was grown and how it was dried — not to the name on the jar.

That is why there are three of these and not thirty. We used to carry Green Borneo, White Maeng Da, Bali Gold, Red Borneo, Red Vein Horn, Yellow Maeng Da, Green Maeng Da and Green Vein Kapuas. Now there is one farm and three veins: this green, a red and a white.

A wide woven drying tray of whole dried leaves gone olive-brown and brittle, a hand lifting one clear of the pile, a cream ceramic bowl of milled powder in front of it and the labelled jar small and out of focus by the window behind.

The powder

Wind dried, milled, and lab tested

The leaves are wind dried rather than dried under heat, then milled to a fine powder. What ends up in the jar is leaf and only leaf — we use no additives and no fillers, and nothing is blended in to bulk it out.

Every batch is lab tested before it is sold: salmonella, E. coli, heavy metals and other foreign contaminants. That is the half of a bulk plant powder you cannot see and cannot taste, and it is the reason it matters which farm a jar came off.

A dose is stirred into a small amount of warm water or into a smoothie, drunk, and chased with something that tastes better — it is bitter. We suggest 30 to 60 minutes before food, and set our guideline at 1–2g mild, 3–4g moderate, 5–8g strong.

Use it sparingly. That is our own advice, and we would rather give it here than in small print at the foot of a label. We would also rather you came to this leaf after other plants than before them.

per jar
  • Green vein kratom leaf (Mitragyna speciosa) · wind dried and milled100%

Before you start

A note on informed use

Plant medicine deserves preparation. For most people this is gentle and uneventful, but some situations call for a conversation first.

Talk to someone first if:

  • You take prescription medication of any kind
  • You or your family have a history of psychosis, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder
  • You have a heart condition or blood pressure that isn't well controlled
  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You simply aren't sure whether this is for you

SSRIs and other antidepressants

They compete for the same serotonin receptors, and can dull the effect substantially. People who feel nothing at all are often taking one without having made the connection. It doesn't rule anything out; it does mean the timing is worth discussing with your doctor first.

Unsure where you sit? Email support@cosmicbazaar.com before you order — we would rather answer questions than take a sale someone regrets.

Our guarantee

If it isn't right, we make it right

Replace it, refund it, or talk it through — whichever leaves you better off. Reach us at support@cosmicbazaar.com and a person answers.
