When you buy kratom online, you'll see three vein colors: red vein, green vein and white vein. Here's what that means.
What the vein color means
The color refers to the central vein of the kratom leaf, which changes as the leaf matures and is processed and dried. It's the main way kratom strains are categorized:
- Red vein kratom — from more mature leaves.
- Green vein kratom — a middle option, popular for everyday preference.
- White vein kratom — from younger leaves.
Preference between red, green and white comes down to the individual — many people try each and settle on a favorite.
Where colors meet strains
Vein colors combine with strains and regions — you'll see Red Bali, Green Malay, White Maeng Da, Red Borneo and more. All come as powder, capsules, extracts and shots.
