Most people are familiar with the three primary kratom vein colors – red, white, and green. While yellow vein kratom isn’t considered one of those primary colors as it stands alone in a distinct category. Yellow vein kratom has a bit of mysterious history, but that doesn’t diminish how amazing its unique alkaloid balance is.

Yellow Vein – Summary

All strains of kratom originate in the hot, humid climate of Southeast Asia. Among the different countries in the region, kratom trees thrive naturally in the forests and jungles. While kratom may have started as a wild-growing tree, people began to cultivate it long ago, which is why now you find it primarily being grown on plantations. Experienced and skilled farmers tend to the kratom trees to help them grow healthy and strong, then handpick the leaves of the trees, which are often the most mature leaves for yellow kratom strains.

Part of what makes yellow kratom so special is the drying process it goes through after the leaves have been harvested. Yellow kratom strains are dried for longer than other strains of kratom, often dried directly in the sun. It is this drying process that creates the distinct alkaloid profile that makes yellow strains so unique and popular.

Yellow Strains – What Are They?

Yellow kratom leaves are typically harvested later in their lifecycle, at a time the leaves contain higher concentrations of the alkaloid 7-hydroxymitragynine. During the fermentation, or drying, process that the leaves undergo, chemical changes occur in these alkaloids, breaking down the 7-hydroxymitragynine into 5-hydroxymitragynine. It’s this shift in the alkaloid profile that creates a different type of kratom than what you would find in red-veined kratom, which is usually what type of kratom is made from older leaves.

It is thought that some yellow kratom is made by blending white, red, and green kratom powder, so it’s a good idea to investigate the kratom you’re purchasing to understand exactly what you’re getting.
