Over the last seven years, Kraken Kratom has become one of the most successful US-based kratom vendors on the market. They have achieved this level of success by paying close attention to industry trends, investing in R & D and distributing only the purest and freshest Mitragyna speciosa tea.
Located in Portland, OR, they have earned their place as Rose City’s premier provider of kratom products. With loyal customers from all across the United States, this vendor has maintained their position as one of the top sources for OG herbals in the Western hemisphere.
Back in 2018, we talked all about why we dig the Kraken Kratom brand in our vendor review. But much has changed in the interim. Today we’ll walk you through all of the newest, latest offerings from this exceptional vendor. We’ll also rap about why they are head and shoulders above much of their competition.
But first…

Abso-freakin’-lutely! These guys are a company in good standing with the BBB (Better Business Bureau).
They are also approved by the AKA (American Kratom Association) thanks to their GMP compliance. Kraken Kratom manufactures an assortment of high quality products that are properly tested and stored in clean facilities.
In addition to their compliance with the AKA’s GMP Standards Program, this supplier strives to refund and/or replace any order that doesn’t mean customer expectation. They regularly withhold kratom batches that do not meet their own level of satisfaction, opting instead to roll out new additions that outperform their predecessors.
Aside from their exceptional plain leaf strains, this seller also stocks the following standouts:
This is but one of their many outstanding choices, a new and improved 11% formula of kratom extract that implements 52% Mitragynine extract to create a blend of White Sunda powder that results in a total of at least 11% pure Mitragynine.
Each batch is QC inspected and certified lab tested to ensure zero contamination and maximum yield. Gold Reserve Extract is available in five, 10 and 20 gram pouches with five grams going for $34.49, an industry low for extract. 10 grams will cost you $64.99 while 20 grams sells for $119.99.
This vendor stocks a myriad of remarkable strains for daytime use. These include Maeng Da Thai and White Vein Borneo.
For my money, their all-time best strain for daytime use is White Sumatra, a tea that’s akin to a particularly strong mug of Arabica coffee with the added bonus of optimizing your level of engagement. I always brew a cup of White Sumatra before working on any project that requires me to be especially present.
If I’m looking to stay focused and engaged, this is the one I turn to. White Sumatra is like inspiration in a pouch.
Red Vein Kali is my top pick for a nighttime burn as it’s a very mellow vein that’s finely powdered for use in a smoothie or even a late night ice cream float…obviously, someone’s enjoyed a “cheat day” recently, but let’s not digress.
Red Kali is sourced from West Kalimantan where it grows in the wilds of the rainforest. It bears the unique distinction of being the only red to contain the highest concentrations of 7-hydroxymitragynine. Read up on the science of kratom and you’ll see why this matters so much. 7-H makes quite the difference if you’re someone who’s looking to spend a lazy evening at home.
It’s a very mild tea which is why I’m quite enamored of it (I don’t really like the intensity of some nighttime stuff). A bit slow, but it really gets the job done. This one is long-lasting as well.
One of the most notable assets in this seller’s catalog is their line of kratom supplements. Not only do they offer the kratom caps that have become a mainstay among users who prefer not to rely on measuring spoons and digital scales but they also provide kratom tablets.
Kratom tablets differ from kratom capsules in that they are not encased in any extraneous material, rather the kratom powder is used to form solid, easy to swallow herbal tabs. No additives. No B.S.
Their Kraken Gold Tea Tablets contain approximately 45% mitragynine in each of their 500 mg tabs. A five count is available for $19.95 while a 20 count goes for $71.95. Their Gold Tea Capsules contain about 80% mitragynine and sell for a similar price point.
These cats have a number of powders that are perfect for noobs, many of them effective at micro-doses. IMHO, I’d have to say that their Bali OG Leaf is the top choice for anyone who’s never tried kratom before.
Bali delivers a well-balanced and moderate aroma that’s ideal for easing into the experience. If you’re just getting acclimated to the many attributes of speciosa then this is the one for you. You’ll get a wide spectrum that isn’t overwhelming.
New releases are introduced on a regular basis, adding to the allure of this ever-growing online store. Their latest additions include the following:
The Kraken Kratom Twitter account frequently features special deals to those who wish to buy bulk kratom powder and kratom capsules. The proprietors understand that there are hundreds of vendors to choose from, that’s why they show their appreciation to customers who order from them by delivering deep discounts and weekly promotions.
For instance, their Cyber Monday Deal enabled consumers to save an unprecedented 80% on select items. Previous markdowns have included a 70% off deal as part of an extended coupon offer. They also run a Rewards Program for return customers that provides even more perks.
Their latest methods of payment include Bitcoin (save 10% off your total), COD (Cash on Delivery) and PayPal. Crypto payments can be made by Coinbase or withdrawn from a mobile wallet or hardware wallet.
Pros
Naturally every customer experience will vary. This is true of any supplier and it’s certainly true of KK. However, it is worth noting that they have been in business for nearly a decade. In those seven years, they have only received seven complaints on the BBB’s site. That’s roughly one complaint per year among hundreds, if not thousands, of daily transactions.
This vendor is active on social media where they engage with curious parties via Twitter, Insta and so forth. This advanced level of commitment has paid off with many in the community heralding their versatile collection, effective product line and awesome customer service.
One user writes: “I bought from there a few times and it was very potent, and the shipping was fast as well. I would recommend the OG/PC Bali, it’s green vein, I was satisfied and never even tried another strain. Has the highest reviews out of all of them anyways.”
Elsewhere, another user says, “I have some white borneo from them. No complaints at all. Take 2.5 grams in the morning with a cup of coffee before work and I’m set.”
Over on I Love Kratom, seasoned reviewer Mad Max Night Rider wrote, “Kraken has some very good quality Kratom that is very fresh & potent as well. Customer service was as good as it gets. Shipping was about average at 4 days but isn’t slow by any means.
“I love their Pouches they use. Very heavy duty that seals really well. They have a good selection of all the main stains to choose from. The prices could be lower but you are paying for quality here. Their Maeng Da Thai is very expensive but I bet it is really good.
“I like the way that their website is layed out in 3 different categories. Makes it easir to find what you want. I can recommend Kraken Kratom to anybody who has no budget & interested in some good quality Kratom.”
Whether you’re a beginner who’s new to the space or a long-time user who’s eager to discover something stronger and different, Kraken K will have something to suit your needs. Give ’em a shot and let us know what you think in the comments. Be well. Peace.
