Guests and visitors to the beautiful state of West Virginia will be pleased to learn that the purchase and possession of kratom is 100% legal. While kratom is available to all adults in the state who want to experience and benefit from “Nature’s Cheat Code,” there are some lawmakers who are attempting to hinder its use. This fact stresses the importance for kratom users to stay informed on the topic.
Kratom advocates are fighting on a national level to keep kratom legal for all adults. However, they also favor setting some guidelines regarding its sale. On a more local level, in 2023, Senators from West Virginia introduced Bill 220, the West Virginia Kratom Consumer Act. It adds some regulations to the sale of kratom. However, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
The West Virginia Kratom Consumer Act regulates the preparation and sale of kratom. Specifically, it states that:
Advocates, like the American Kratom Association (AKA), are not only at the forefront of keeping kratom legal for adults but also advocate for its safe use, employing safety regulations and prohibiting its sale to minors. Product purity is also of importance, and they support regulations that prohibit the sale of adulterated kratom products.
Fortunately, there is no proposed future legislation to limit or ban the sale of kratom in West Virginia. Visitors and residents of the state, as long as they are 21 years of age or older, visitors and residents of the state have the freedom to experience this “octane for the soul” without fear of repercussions. However, fans of kratom should stay up to date on its future as a legally purchased product.
For the kratom industry and its audience, the West Virginia Kratom Consumer Act is a big step towards its protection. While at first glance, it may seem like any kratom regulations could lead to its demise, it’s actually the opposite. This act is beneficial by:
Whether you’re a long-time kratom devotee or a complete newcomer, Golden Monk has the perfect kratom product for you. West Virginians have their favorites, and here’s a look at the state’s top five best-selling kratom products.
Golden Monk’s Kratom Gummies are a top pick not only for their portability but also for their flavor. These easy-to-chew gummies each contain 10mg of premium kratom extract. Like all of our products, they’re packed in a GMP-compliant facility, so you’re assured of their high quality. Golden Monk’s gummies are a good choice for those who haven’t yet acquired a taste for kratom powders’ unique bitterness.
Kratom enthusiasts who want a more traditional approach to enjoying all that it has to offer choose Golden Monk’s Maeng Da Kratom Powder. This horned leaf strain of the Mitragyna Speciosa plant comes in white, green, and red-veined varieties. Originating from Indonesia, despite its name meaning “pimp” in the Thai language, Maeng Da kratom has grassy and bitter aromas that are common to most kratom powders.
Easy-to-swallow Kratom Capsules are a good choice for those on the go or those who don’t want to mess with mixing kratom powders into smoothies or brewed as a bitter tea. Each capsule contains 500mg of premium kratom powder, and purchasers can select between any of Golden Monk’s kratom strains. This convenient form of high-quality kratom is “mess-free,” and an easy way to avoid the bitterness found when using powders.
Originating from (yup, you guessed it!) the island of Sumatra, Golden Monk’s Red Sumatra Kratom Powder has been enjoyed by the people of Indonesia for longer than anyone can remember. Known for its beautiful red vein leaves, it’s a favorite of kratom veterans.
Hailing from Borneo, Golden Monk’s White Vein Borneo Kratom Powder is another crowd favorite for those who prefer measuring and mixing their kratom the traditional way. This white-vein variety is known for its beautiful appearance and intense aromatics. Its earthy scent has been described as having hints of pine and freshly cut grass. Like all of Golden Monk’s powdered kratom products, it’s available in 250, 500, and 1000-gram pouches.
Indigenous to Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia, kratom is derived from drying the leaves of the tropical tree Mitragyna speciosa. Long used in ceremonies for cultural practices, word eventually spread to the rest of the world, where it has been warmly received by many for its interesting properties.
The leaves of Mitragyna speciosa tree, native to Southeast Asia, are harvested. The leaves could be young, mature, or somewhere between the two, depending on the particular strain. Next, they’re either sundried or dried in modern processing facilities. Once dried, they’re ground into a fine powder. The final step is packaging. Golden Monk’s products come from verified farmers with whom we’ve built long relationships.
Fortunately, kratom is legal in most of the country, with a few exceptions. Please refer to the above infographic for more information about your specific state, or contact the American Kratom Association.
Despite having a similar appearance when viewed as a powder and both being used to brew as a tea, many of the similarities end there. Kratom originates from Southeast Asia and is derived from the Mitragyna speciosa tree. Matcha comes from Japan and comes from the Camellia sinensis plant.
