Borneo Kratom
The leaves of the red senetol are called kratom. Although Thailand is the origin of red plants, today kratom trees are mainly grown in Indonesia for commercial purposes. Depending on the exact area of origin and the composition of the leaves, different types of kratom are distinguished. One of them is Borneo kratom, which you can find in our store.
History of Borneo kratom
Borneo is an island in the Malay Archipelago in Southeast Asia. Borneo is the third largest island in the world after Greenland and New Guinea and is the largest island in Asia. The climatic conditions on the island are very suitable for Red Senetol. The Borneo Kratom part comes directly from the equatorial region that cuts through the middle of the island. Tropical climatic conditions, swamps and nutrient-rich soil create ideal growing conditions. The center of the island is the third largest lowland rainforest area in the world. Of particular note is the life of the kratom tree in the region. As the leaf composition of each kratom species depends on the growing conditions of the tree, the kratom variety convinces Borneo customers of its outstanding performance due to the ideal conditions typical of the island.
Once kratom is exported from Indonesia to the West, it will move to Bali and await shipment at the port. Retailers do not necessarily call the kratoms stored in Borneo "Borneo", but sometimes "Bali Kratom". Various people buy Borneo or Bali kratom in our store. Whether artists use it for painting, scientists use it for research purposes, collectors order the substance or beauty users use it to dye their hair: Kratom art is one of the most popular arts in the West. Borneo kratom includes several varieties as its main category. Like all other types of kratom, Borneo kratom is mainly distinguished by the color of the veins. Leaf veins are the most important quality standard for any type of kratom. Depending on the color, the buyer can draw a conclusion about the leaf content.
The individual veins
Borneo kratom with red veins is called Borneo Red Vein. Borneo white veins are called Borneo White Vein, and Borneo leaves with green veins are called Green Vein. In folk medicine in Southeast Asia, different leaf vein colors can draw conclusions about the alkaloid content. In any case, the height of the leaves differs from the kratom tree. The climatic conditions and harvest time influence the concentration of alkaloids in the leaves. The color of the leaf veins also plays an important role in the Western world: although kratom is not used medicinally here, more and more Western artists are buying leaves to produce color. Kratom Borneo is expected to have a strong henna-like brown tone with red veins. By using leaves with white veins, the artist can obtain a lighter tone.
Borneo Maeng Da is one of the most popular Borneo kratom varieties in the West. The Munda variety does not come from a tree, but from a different plant. Therefore, Borneo Maeng Da corresponds to the fusion of Borneo leaves and has the highest stability in terms of leaf composition. When it comes to kratom blends, an improvement in quality is usually mentioned. Although the price of the corresponding blend is slightly higher due to the high quality, customer demand is significantly reduced compared to other types of Maengda strains. Customers can also benefit from the improved quality of Kratom Art Borneo Red Vein Enhanced. After harvesting, this powerful kratom with red vein color is refined. When exposed to heat, the density of the ingredients increases. Only after processing into kratom resin is the Borneo Red Vein Enhanced Kratom made from this substance into powder.
