Many Kratom enthusiasts question whether Bali Gold – or any other Gold strain – really exists. The reality is that there are true Gold strains, but they may not be made the way you’d think. In this Bali Gold Kratom review, we’ll look at the pros and cons of this particular strain. Additionally, we’ll provide more details on how Gold strains come to life.
Also known as Gold Bali, this strain comes from Red Bali leaves. So, why isn’t it just called Red Bali? The secret is in the way its grown and prepared. To become Bali Gold, the Red Bali leaves must first grow in the wild, followed by a unique sun drying process. Alternatively, a highly intricate fermentation process can provide the same results. Interestingly, each batch of Bali Gold will vary based on which process the grower utilizes. Either way, though, this strain always presents a unique blend of Green and Red Bali properties.
Now that you have a better idea of how Bali Gold comes to life, it’s time to look at the most important part. How well does it perform? According to Redditors, Gold Bali offers a relaxed, sedate, mellow performance. In another Reddit thread, forum members said, “I love Bali Gold” and characterized the strain as “effective and easy going.” Of course, everyone’s experience varies, which helps explain why one Redditor said it’s a “pretty perfect coffee replacement for me in the morning.”
Bali has earned a spot among the most popular Kratom strains. There are four veins under the Bali name, and they each have something unique to offer. Which one should you check out next? Find out below!
Gold Bali isn’t quite as prevalent as the other Bali veins, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find it from a reputable online vendor. We’ve looked through many vendor sites to provide a list of options for your convenience.
There’s a large array of prices for Bali Gold. In the past, this strain was so hard to find that many vendors set their prices exorbitantly high. Now that Gold Bali’s more commonplace, you’ll find a mixture of reasonable and old-school pricing.
On the powder side, 1 ounce typically sells for anywhere from $5 to $15. Midrange pricing (100g – 250g) comes in around $20 and runs up to $46. If you want to buy in bulk, 1 kilo runs between $79 and $240. As always, we remind you that buying the most expensive won’t necessarily give you the best quality, nor will the cheapest always be the worst. However, if something seems way too inexpensive too be true, you should probably trust that instinct.
Moving on to Bali Gold capsules, we find a much smaller selection of vendors. Those that do offer this strain in the capsule format tend to start at around $14.99 for a 30-count bottle. In the midrange, you’ll find bottles with 180 to 200 capsules for $74.99 – $88. If you prefer bulk quantities, you can find 500 capsules for less than $200.
Now that you know all about Bali Gold, you’ll probably want to add it to your list the next time you buy Kratom. Many enjoy this strain for its nice blend of Red and Green Bali properties. If you’re looking for a relaxed, mellow, yet somewhat energetic performance, Bali Gold is the perfect choice.
