Description
Borneo is one of the world’s most fascinating islands. Not only is Borneo one of the largest islands in the world, it’s one of the few territories that belong to three nations. Beyond Borneo’s intriguing natural and historical features, it also happens to be a hotspot for kratom tree cultivation. Indeed, many of the most popular kratom farmers originate in this subtropical region.
While many kratom cultivars originated in Borneo, the signature “Borneo” strain is the most iconic. For many kratom plant collectors, White Borneo kratom is the most desirable version of the Borneo strain. Customers interested in a white-vein strain with a powerful reputation should take some time to research White Borneo kratom powder.
What Is White Borneo Kratom Powder?
White Borneo refers to a white-vein kratom strain that was discovered on the Indonesian part of the island of Borneo. White kratom strains are named after the bright vein colors found on their leaves. Although every kratom hybrid has green leaves, the vein color often signals different traits, such as alkaloid composition, harvest time, and age.
Indonesian cultivators need to harvest White Borneo early in the season to capture these white veins. As kratom strains like Borneo mature, the leaves’ veins will change from white to green to red veins. Customers often see White Borneo sold alongside its “relatives” Red and Green Borneo.
Since White Borneo is so specific to the Borneo region, customers must double-check where their kratom comes from. If a kratom vendor isn’t working with native Indonesian farmers, chances are you aren’t getting authentic White Borneo kratom powder. Golden Monk has spent years building relationships with cultivators throughout Southeast Asia to ensure the authenticity of our kratom strains.
What Makes This Strain Unique?
Many kratom customers who buy White Borneo kratom are blown away by its intense appearance and aromatics. White vein Borneo has a reputation for its many powerful attributes, which may be due to its unique genetic composition. While we don’t know precisely how Borneo compares with other kratom strains, White Borneo’s alkaloid concentration likely has something to do with its intense properties.
White-vein kratom strains have higher amounts of the alkaloid mitragynine rather than 7-hydroxymitragynine. We can’t say for sure why or how these alkaloids affect White Borneo kratom, but many customers suggest they may help distinguish it from similar strains.
People who buy kratom consistently rave about White Borneo’s intense attributes. Experienced kratom collectors may most appreciate the eye-catching features White Borneo powder brings to the table.
How Does White Borneo Kratom Powder Smell?
White Borneo’s predominately earthy scent may mimic odors like woods, pine, or fresh-cut grass. Customers also use words like “sharp” and “bitter” to describe White Borneo’s aromatics.
Please remember that White Borneo kratom doesn’t undergo a lengthy fermentation process like many red-vein kratom hybrids. Instead, White Borneo leaves are harvested very early in the season. Since White Borneo kratom leaves don’t have time to mature, they won’t take on any of the “funky” notes often associated with fermentation. Instead, White Borneo powder will likely have a clean earthy “bite” that can be a bit off-putting if people aren’t used to kratom.
What Kratom Strains Resemble White Borneo Kratom?
If you can’t find White Borneo kratom powder for some reason, White Bali is the best substitute strain. Confusingly, Bali kratom strains originate in the same region as Borneo. Kratom vendors only named this strain “Bali” because it was closely associated with Bali’s trading port. In reality, all authentic Bali cultivars grow in Borneo’s Indonesian territory.
White Borneo and White Bali are so similar that many experienced kratom collectors have difficulty separating the two. Not only do these strains come from the same region, they’re harvested at the same time. Plus, both White Borneo kratom and White Bali have similarly high concentrations of mitragynine.
It’s unlikely you won’t find White Borneo and White Bali on a reputable kratom website. However, if you’re still looking for a White Borneo substitute, it’s best to stick with any white-vein kratom cultivar. There’s a better chance your kratom will mimic White Borneo if it has the standard properties in a white-vein strain.
Please resist the urge to buy a Red or Green Borneo powder hoping that it will mimic White Borneo. There are significant distinctions between red, green, and white strains, even if you’re shopping within the same kratom family.
Who Should Buy White Borneo Kratom Powder?
Generally speaking, White Borneo is best suited for experienced kratom customers. This isn’t to say new shoppers can’t buy White Borneo kratom, but this strain tends to have intense attributes. People not already accustomed to kratom powder may find it tough to deal with White Borneo’s aromatics.
Most first-time kratom buyers have an easier time appreciating green-vein kratom strains with a more even mix of alkaloids. For instance, new customers often gravitate to Green Malay, Green Bali, or even Green Borneo before trying a white-vein strain.
After a few months of learning the distinctions between various kratom strains, you will probably be in a better position to appreciate White Borneo kratom powder. Again, it’s not necessary to start with green kratom strains, but some people find that White Borneo’s scent is too abrasive for fresh kratom customers.
Why Buy This Strain From Us?
Despite the rapid growth in the kratom sector, customers must remember the FDA doesn’t oversee the supplements market. Unfortunately, this has led to many disreputable companies offering unverified kratom extracts. When shopping for a popular strain like White Borneo kratom, customers need to go with a quality kratom vendor with a long history of success and transparency.
Headquartered in Las Vegas, Golden Monk is on a mission to bring pure & lab-verified kratom powders to the USA. We only work with approved kratom farms in Southeast Asia that meet our high standards for farming practices. Golden Monk also sends every batch of kratom in our catalog to third-party labs for alkaloid, purity and microbial analysis.
While kratom laws are constantly changing, a few states that have particularly restrictive policies include the following:
- Alabama
- Arkansas
- Indiana
- Rhode Island
- Sarasota county
- Vermont
- Wisconsin
A few cities like San Diego and Oceanside also have local restrictions on the sale and shipment of kratom. Please check your local laws as city and county status is constantly changing.
Golden Monk is also proud to have many accreditations in the kratom community. Most notably, Golden Monk is a member of the American Kratom Association, and we always follow the AKA’s latest recommendations for manufacturing and testing.

I’ve tried several vendors, and TGM has been the best value for money by a pretty wide margin. I’ve had a few issues with shipping, mainly receiving the wrong order, but TGM refunded the difference in the orders AND sent the correct one afterwards, basically giving me my original order for free.
There has been some inconsistency in the grind (sometimes super fine, sometimes has a lot of grit and plant matter, especially in full kilos) but the excellent customer service and high quality otherwise more than make up for it. I still try other brands now and then, and the only ones that rival TGM are $20-$40 more per monthly order. There’s also a pretty generous points system that gives me around 10% back every time I order, strongly recommend creating an account if you’re a regular buyer.
As for the strain itself, this has been my favorite so far, along with Red Bali. The Green Maeng Da, usually my go-to for other brands, can be hit or miss (probably due to the sheer volume they go through compared to other strains). The only reason I mention the issues I’ve had is that their service is so good otherwise!

The white Bali has been a real help They blow me away with their service. Highly recommend this company. Keep up the outstanding work.
Dante Modaffari (verified owner) –
One of the better white strains. Every day I alternate colors, then strains, so I go red, green, white, and interlocked with that is Bali, Maeng Da, Borneo, etc. So I try to get as many different colors/strains as I can lay my hands on. Golden Monk offers a gangload, which is good. Honestly, I never order anywhere else, ever, except for Trainwreck.
Hint, Hint, Golden Monk: create a Trainwreck strain and sell it!

Brett Buffone (verified owner) –
Every strain that ive ever purchased from Golden Monk has been top shelf, the highest grade quality ive ever come across!!!
Thanks for taking those extra steps in supplying your customers with the highest grade Kratom like you guys do!!
I have purchased lots of Kratom over the years and can easily say that I haven’t come across a Kratom vendor yet that even comes close to sharing such high quality Kratom like you guys do…….and I definitely can’t forget to mention the incredible shipping speed that you guys provide along with that.
I rarely take the time to write reviews for anything but when I come across the kind of service that you guys provide, it is the very least I can do to show my appreciation! BiG UP!!!! Much Respect!!

This is the 2nd time l bought White Borneo blend of kratom. I have only bought kratom from 1 other company before. I bought White Borneo from another company. Since I am a senior on fixed income, I asked for a discount which they gave and I bought 2 more blends of kratom. When I was almost out of kratom capsules, I asked them for a coupon again. l waited 4 days before I heard from that other company. When l tried to place an order for three blends of kratom, I found out the coupon code was no good. I searched on line and by chance, I found the Golden Monk Kratom Company. Golden Monk Kratom sent out my supplies on the SAME day and sent me emails to keep me informed about the shipping of the delivery. I received my package in 2 days. Many thanks to everyone at Golden Kratom Company. Also, the quality of White Borneo Kratom from Golden Monk Kratom are far more SUPERIOR than the other company I bought from before. I think Golden Monk Kratom has made a lifelong customer out of me…

I am a long time kratom user and have purchased from many venders over the years. The price and quality was excellent, as was delivery. I was very pleased with the product.

I had been ordering from a couple of different companies before I decided to order from these guys. I guess the biggest reason was I didn’t want to order 250g of only one strain yet. I wanted to “find my strain”. My experience has led me to find, all that matters is the color and the quality. I thought white Brunei was my favorite from a different company and had tried their white Borneo, this is way better then the Brunei and Borneo from the other company.
The golden monk has what matters, high quality effective Kratom. I don’t care at all the only have a few strains, if their good that’s all that matters.

This review is for an order placed on December 03, 2018. I was really happy with the White Vein Borneo I ordered. Just like all my other orders from The Golden Monk, the quality was awesome and the delivery was very quick. The kratom had a nice, pleasing aroma and the powder itself was very fine without any problems. I must admit, I’ve shopped for kratom from many different sites and vendors over the years, but The Golden Monk is definitely the best. This is a terrific company that has quickly turned into my go-to source for kratom. This company also has great customer service and awesome products in general. I won’t be shopping anywhere else in future. Thanks!
