Description
Maeng Da has the most eye-catching name in the kratom industry…especially if you speak some Thai. Interestingly, this kratom strain roughly translates to “pimp” in Thai, which supposedly refers to Maeng Da’s super pungent aromatics. With a name that salacious, is it any wonder so many customers can’t wait to get their hands on Maeng Da powder?
While Maeng Da’s marketing helps draw in new customers, the quality of this hybrid keeps bringing people back. Maeng Da kratom has a particular chemical consistency thanks to a unique Indonesian grafting technique. Only a few master kratom cultivators know the exact proportions to make authentic Red, White, and Green Maeng Da powders.
Customers who want exceptional Maeng Da powder need to work with kratom vendors with solid relationships with these select Indonesian farms. Golden Monk sources our Maeng Da directly from master Indonesian cultivators. Customers curious about Maeng Da kratom will find plenty of high-grade powders and capsules on our site.
What Is The Best Maeng Da Kratom?
Although the term “Maeng Da” is Thai, most accounts of the Maeng Da strain suggest it originated in Indonesia. Interestingly, Maeng Da kratom isn’t a “single strain.” Technically, Maeng Da kratom strains contain specific percentages of various kratom leaves. Indonesian farmers must use a special grafting technique with different kratom varieties to create their final products.
It’s also significant to mention that “Maeng Da” doesn’t refer to just one kratom vein color. People could find Maeng Da kratom cultivars in the red vein kratom powder, white vein, and green vein families. However, unlike other kratom strains, please remember the vein color associated with your Maeng Da isn’t related to a “Maeng Da” plant. Instead, cultivators use a unique blend of red, white, yellow Maeng Da, or green kratom strains typical to the Maeng Da mix.
Since making Maeng Da is a trade secret, there’s little known about how farmers go about the grafting process. All that we know is that authentic Maeng Da comes from a few historic Indonesian farms. Please double-check that any Maeng Da kratom powder you order comes from a reputable vendor who works directly with Indonesian cultivators.
What Makes Maeng Da Kratom Different?
Although many kratom strains use grafting, Maeng Da is one of the most notable examples of this technique. Maeng Da is also a bit more mysterious than many other popular kratom strains.
Despite Maeng Da’s popularity, there’s a lot of mystery surrounding this strain. Only people who have a deep familiarity with kratom cultivation know the exact leaves and percentages that go into Red, Green, and White Maeng Da kratom powders.
Unfortunately, there’s still a lack of high-quality scientific data on various kratom hybrids. It’s difficult to say what separates Maeng Da from other similar kratom strains. People unfamiliar with kratom may overlook significant distinctions between Maeng Da kratom and other popular kratom powders. However, most kratom customers argue Maeng Da powders have similar alkaloid percentages to those found in traditional red, white, or green strains.
In the case of red Maeng Da kratom, most of these strains have higher traces of the alkaloid 7-hydroxymitragynine, while white kratom has more mitragynine. Since green-vein kratom is harvested in-between white and red strains, it often has a balanced mix of these alkaloids. Maeng Da probably follows this model in terms of its alkaloid percentages.
What Are The Strain’s Aromatics?
There aren’t any reports that suggest Maeng Da kratom has unique aromatics compared with other kratom strains. Generally, people find that Maeng Da powders have grassy and bitter aromas, which is common in most kratom products.
Thankfully, since Maeng Da is such a hot hybrid, it’s easy to find the three varieties of this strain in capsules. Those who can’t stand the smell of kratom in their home may want to check our Maeng Da capsules. The Maeng Da powder in these capsules has a gelatin coating, which dampens this strain’s pronounced pungency.
Who Should Buy This Kratom Strain?
With a name that means “pimp,” Maeng Da may scare off new kratom customers. Although Maeng Da has a reputation for pronounced aromatics, that doesn’t mean it’s a bad choice for beginner kratom collectors. However, it’s probably best for new kratom buyers to focus on Green Maeng Da before researching White or Red Maeng Da.
Green-vein kratom tends to have the best blend of alkaloids, which gives it a more balanced chemical composition. Since White and Red Maeng Da lean on different ends of the alkaloid percentage, they may not be the optimal choice for people just starting their kratom collecting journey.
A positive feature of Maeng Da kratom is that it’s readily available at most kratom vendors. Due to Maeng Da’s popularity, it’s one of the most accessible kratom hybrids. No matter your familiarity with kratom, you should have an easy time adding Maeng Da to your collection.

I ordered a kilo of white meang da first and and added 250grams of green so I could try it and the white was very good stuff but I really liked the green. I ended up mixing the white and green in little container and it was a very good mix. All around great stuff for a great price.

I use white Maeng Da. I’ve tried so many brands. I used to use Choice Botanicals, which was the top of the line for the tobacco shop near me. I’ve used Klarity, BumbleBee, and Earth. I’ve used one that is sold only locally where I live. Not only are the above brands super expensive, their quality is so-so. Choice is the best from a shop, but it’s so expensive.
Golden Monk really blows them all away. Not only are their prices extremely fair, the quality beats out anything you can buy at a shop. If someone told me they would give me a free bag from one of the other brands if I would not buy from Golden Monk I swear I wouldn’t do it, no way. That’s how superior GM is.
I buy the powder It’s smooth and very finely milled. To me it doesn’t have a strong odor either, some of them have a smell that is almost offensive.
They also ship my order the same day I order it if I order by noon I’ve found. I’m on the east coast so maybe that has something to do with it. The shipping is always fast, it’s usually at my door in 3-4 days. Only one time it took I think 9 days, but that was in the summer when the post office was an even hotter mess than it is now, so it wasn’t the fault of Golden Monk.
The prices are so fair, so really what have you got to lose by trying them out?

I’ve tried many suppliers, I’ve never found a price nor quality to beat this. You won’t beat the price nor the quality of The Golden Monk. White is my strain personally. Thank you Golden Monk.

I’ve ordered from many other Kratom sellers and always run into some type of trouble with the price the product running out or them being shut down I’ve been ordering now for a Year or so and never had any problems if I order it today are usually always get it the next day which is incredible product is always fresh I couldn’t ask for more thank you golden monk

Arrived a full day early, Text-message updates were actually accurate, tracking this package was the most precise & updated thing I’ve ever had shipped to me (don’t order much of anything over the web) and came to me vacuum sealed and fresher than any other kratom I’ve ever bought anywhere. Two tablespoons of powder brewed 7 full mason jars’ worth of tea, and retained its orange/yellow color through & through each steep. I don’t even review things that often, but this kratom has got to be one of my most satisfying purchases of 2020. Will be ordering again. And again. And again. Thank you Golden Monk!!!

I made an error on my order, received, promptly, the item I ordered, but not the one I had meant to order. With Edgar’s assistance at Golden Monk, I was able to return the (unopened) “wrong” product and get a replacement for the product I actually wanted. All with no fuss and with reasonably quick response. Thank you Edgar et alia. The product itself, as I had noted on an earlier purchase, is quite fine, as represented and well handled. And priced somewhat cheaper than my local brick-n-mortar source. Thanks all around.

Great quality and customer service. Fast shipping unless post office looses your order. Best prices especially with coupon codes and E-check. All the Maeng Da. has been very good.

I have ordered kratom from many different websites for almost 2 years now, but this one is my absolute go to. The first day I found this website I had a quick question, and they answered very quickly with great customer service. The quality of the kratom is up to par with some of the top rated websites on the internet right now in my opinion. This price for the quality is pretty much unbeatable, and I have stopped using other overpriced vendors completely. If you are considering buying from this website, I highly recommend at least trying a small quantity out. Lastly, the point system and discounts that are offered on holidays and special occasions, are a very nice addition to everything else I have mentioned. Thank you all for the great experience, and I will continue to order from here as long as I use kratom.

I started out by buying an 8 oz bag of Super Green Malay and Green Maeng Da. Both were of excellent quality. I opted on Green Maeng Da. I have purchased 2 kilos in the past two months. I actually made a small an error on my last order. I called and within 30 seconds it was fixed. I will never purchase from any other vendor.

I’ve tried many vendors online and off. This is the best kratom I’ve ever tried. The price is great, too. I use kratom to help with bipolar, and has honestly been a miracle for me. I’m on meds for it, but kratom is the only thing I’ve found to bring me out of the really awful lows.

I had been buying locally and gave golden monk a try and its is some of the BEST I’ve ever had. Packaging is great and the product is dry NOT CLUMPY like what I was buying in town so you actually get what you pay for.
randall.s.dukes (verified owner) –
I have tried 3 other companies and this is the best. Fastest shipping, best prices, great quality Kratom, and excellent customer service with very fast and kind responses. I bought red and green Maeng Da, both are excellent! Bad reviews for this company are hard to find. I would definitely recommend you give it a try. I’m trying white Borneo next. Only thing I wish is they had more strains, but if it’s good Kratom I guess it doesn’t really matter.

Key points.
Excellent product.
Vacuum sealed.
Extremely fast delivery, even when I used ACH.
Price was the best anywhere I found.
Customer service was very quick and professional.
Using the website was a breeze, only wish the rest of the world vendors would follow the same format.
Will buy again, thank you Golden Monk.

Long time Kratom buyer. I switched to TGM a couple months ago. Sorry to say I’ve been overpaying for products of far less quality until now. Absolutely recommend TGM to anybody superior product, superior website navigation, unbelievable prices!! Finally able to talk to a human when I have questions too. That earns superior customer service! White maeng da is awesome.
Josh Vogel (verified owner) –
could not be happier with this vendor I have went through five different other vendors and these guys are by far the best package came within 3 days was is vacuum-sealed and very good quality I would recommend this vendor to anyone
brutalsacrifice2018 (verified owner) –
Definitely the best! I have ordered from many vendors but hands down this is the best! One place was from Purkratom out of Florida which is a top rated vendor. I ordered White Maeng Da from there twice. The Golden Monk is ALOT cheaper and higher quality. I am very picky trust me! The customer service is super awesome! Give The Golden Monk a chance and you will never regret it.

Like most people I always bought in town locally which is Tulsa Oklahoma. I was nervous about buying from a new place and man quality is the best I have ever had and I have been taking kratom for 3 years and this is the best and the price is the best and love the cod delivery. 5 stars I’d give it 10 if the scale was bigger
Erik Morgan (verified owner) –

Ordered Thursday and received it Sunday, yeah that’s right Sunday, I can’t say anything bad about the product WMD, first time ordering from the internet and first time using golden monk, the only thing that I was disappointed with is that I bought a kee and didn’t get anything extra, no samples not even a spoon, and I figured that since I was a first time customer I would of got something.

I really REALLY enjoy this product. I’m big on white strains and this White Maeng Da does a nice job. I’ve been a long time kratom buyer, and it’s nice to finally have found a company with some decent stuff! Plus you can tell they care about helping out with questions, or finding a solution. The only thing that’s weird is my poor mailman is so confused about COD. But now it has given him an excuse to come to my door and make some conversation! 😃
But again, this is a great product, and the people behind the company are great. Thanks! PS. I never write reviews.

Always nervous ordering from a new place for the first time. Especially when the product is this cheap. I figured give it a shot and if it does not work out, oh well. Live and learn. Let me tell you. First the product is worth twice what they are selling it for. Period. Second, this is a quality product at an amazing price. Delivery was SUPER smooth and easy. Paying COD was a little weird the first time but something I have zero problems doing from now on. If you are considering purchasing from TGM, just pull the trigger. You will be glad you did. Might as well do it now before they realize they can charge more for their products!!! I am about to place my second order just because they sent me an amazing discount email. I don’t really need any right now but can not pass this up. I will review that one as well but expect it will be positive also.

First time buyer with golden monk. I was skeptical at first as with ordering anything online. The package was able to be tracked from vegas to long island ny every step of the way. Discreet packaging was actually vacum sealed and done very well. There is a customer service number i called twice and actually spoke to a real live human!!!! Prices were phenomenal (especially on kilo). Overall great experience. From ordering to shipping traking and product is great. The only thing for me was that it came a day late due to leaving their facility 1 day late. Small price to pay for excellence!!!!! Golden Monk just gained a lifelong customer!!!(and i got free samples of the color strain i requested)

I’ve been taking kratom for about 7 years now and have been through a multitude of distributers, online and retail with varying results both good and bad. I heard about this site from a stranger I met in a vape shop and thought I’d look it up when I got home ……..I’m SO GLAD I DID!!! I had never gotten anything C.O.D. before and I didn’t know what to expect but after watching their short video which explained it clearly I figured ‘what the hell’. I placed my order on Friday and had the postman at my house ON MONDAY with my package!!!! Not only was it super fast but this is probably the most exceptionally good kratom I’ve EVER DONE! After trying the product I called the company on their (855) number just to tell them how happy I was with the whole experience and found the person that answered my call to be extremely friendly and knowledgeable, able to answer any and all questions I had and of course was very pleased when I told him that they now had a new permanent customer

I was quite nervous about ordering a kilo of my regular green maeng da from a new source but thought I would give it a go and I’m glad I did. Fastest shipping I’ve ever seen for anything. I ordered on Tuesday and it was here on Thursday. That’s quite a feat from Nevada to North Carolina. Thanks a bunch Golden Monk! I’ll be in touch!

I’ve ordered from the same vendor once a month for the past seven years then the quality of their product began to slip and the past few months it became unbearable, I spoke to them about it and all I was told was “we’ll do the best we can” my last order was the worst ever. I had been ordering from them so long that I hadn’t really kept up with other vendors and dreaded trying to go through weeding out the low quality or over priced and thought it may be a painful process, then I ran across Golden Monk and they came to the rescue! GM’s prices are good, their quality great and customer service is A1! There was a small error with my shipping time and tracking number, but they kept me updated every step of the way and was very apologetic and helpful. Thanks Edgar and Golden Monk, you’ve earned a happy and loyal customer for years to come.
