Mitragyna Speciosa has been cultivated in the Southeast Asian regions of the world since ancient times. How do these evergreen tree leaves turn into the powders that customers see in their packets, capsules, and jars?

Sunda Kratom, like most Mitragyna species, requires hot and humid conditions to grow the best. It breeds best in the region where the climate is tropical almost all through the year. Farmers in the Sunda Islands know the best cultivation practices that would yield potent and desirable Kratom of the highest quality.

The first step in the growth of Sunda Kratom is the coloration and harvesting of the Sundanese strain.

The leaf color of the strain depends upon the amount of sunlight it receives and the genetics of the plant and can also change with time. Once the healthy leaves of the plant have grown, farmers harvest the leaves and separate them based on vein color.

Farmers have long since growing the plant in soil that has sufficient aeration and receives maximum sunlight. They use traditional practices to ensure the Mitragyna on their lands has the best taste and high alkaloid content. Many vendors from the U.S. have partnered with these farmers for their quality Kratom.

The color, smell, and taste of any Kratom strain can be a telltale sign of the quality of the Mitragyna you are using. Something that all users agree on when it comes to Speciosa, it doesn’t have the best taste. Mitragyna is an organic herb that has rich alkaloid content. The same is true for Sunda Island Kratom. Although the strain has a large number of associated benefits, the taste is earthy and bitter. This taste also signifies good quality kratom.

If your Mitragyna is not bitter, it is probably not authentic. Many substandard vendors mix artificial flavors and tea leaves extracts into their Kratom powder to improve the taste, but this can interfere with the natural benefits the plant has.

Sunda Kratom can be emulsified into various drinks and beverages to improve the bitter taste, as mentioned below.

• Teas: The Sundanese Kratom can be boiled with tea leaves to make great tasting herbal teas. It enhances the flavor of your teas and increases the potential.
• Juices: This is the most commonly used method to enhance the taste of the Kratom powder. You can mix blends in juices like orange juice and pineapple, which mask the bitter taste.
• Soups and gravies: Adding your Kratom powder to soups works too! The bitter taste gets masked, and your food tastes the same with additional benefits of Mitragyna.

Certain factors allow you to choose the best Sunda Kratom. These include the following:

• Ensure that the Sunda Kratom you are buying has been sourced from the Sunda Islands and is 100% authentic and organic. Using synthetic Mitragyna can have deleterious effects on both your physical and mental well-being. 
• The alkaloid content is another telltale sign of good quality. These alkaloids are chemical compounds inside the ketum leaves that are responsible for all the plant’s associated benefits. Make sure that the Sunda Kratom you are buying has rich alkaloid content. 
• The color of the leaf veins is a major factor that comes into play when the quality of kratom is concerned. Every leaf has a specific color that allows you to figure out if your kratom is of good quality.

Sunda Island is one of the most well-balanced strains that have recently appeared in the market. The strain has several benefits, along with the authentic kratom feel to it. It originates from the home of already famous strains like Sumatra, Borneo, Bali, and can, therefore, be trusted when it comes to alkaloids and potency.
