21+ only. Kratom isn't FDA-approved for any use and is banned in some states and cities; see our state guide. This page compares vendors; it isn't medical advice. We did not buy or test products.
"Green" is the leaf-vein color vendors assign, which they tie to when the leaf is harvested and how it is dried. "Maeng Da" is a trade name, not a separate species: all of it is Mitragyna speciosa. Vendors often market green Maeng Da as a "balanced" middle option between white and red; that is marketing language, effects aren't established, and the FDA hasn't approved kratom for any use. Background: kratom strains explained.

Per-gram and per-capsule figures are our arithmetic from listed prices. Sources, checked September 28, 2026: Kats powder, Kats capsules, Kats COA lookup; Golden Monk powder, Golden Monk capsules, Golden Monk COAs; Happy Hippo powder and capsules; Super Speciosa powders, capsules, kilo deal, lab lookup; Kona Green Maeng Da.
Kats ranks first on our method (8.8/10), and its Green Maeng Da is its most-reviewed powder. Its product page discloses the recipe: 80% Green Maeng Da and 20% White Vein. The capsule page lists the same 80/20 split. If you want green vein only, that matters; if you want Kats's lot-number lab lookup and 30-day guarantee, it's the most transparent option here. The powder starts at $8.29 for 35g; capsules are $25.99 (90 ct) or $59.99 (250 ct). "Super Maeng Da Green" is a separate, enhanced product that we don't cover. Our link gives $10 off a first order of $40+.
Kats Botanicals review · Visit Kats Botanicals
Golden Monk's Green Maeng Da comes in 250g ($23.99) and 1 kg ($52.99) bags, and capsules in 250, 500 and 1,000 counts ($60.99 to $71.99). At about 7 cents per capsule, the 1,000-count bag was the cheapest per capsule we found. There's no trial size. Its COA page posts reports by vein color and package size ("Green Kratom Powder 250g"), not by strain name.

Kona Kratom review · Visit Kona Kratom
The FDA has not approved kratom for any medical use and warns consumers not to use it. Kratom is banned in several states and some cities (state guide). Avoid "enhanced" and concentrated 7-OH products; see what is 7-OH.
FAQ
On September 28, 2026, we confirmed plain-leaf Green Maeng Da at Kats Botanicals, Golden Monk, Happy Hippo, Super Speciosa and Kona Kratom. We couldn't confirm a Green Maeng Da at Kraken Kratom or Left Coast Kratom, and MIT45 sells extracts only.
No. Kats's product page lists it as 80% Green Maeng Da and 20% White Vein. The other four vendors describe theirs as single-ingredient leaf without a blend.
Golden Monk's 1 kg bag at $52.99 (about 5 cents per gram) was the lowest one-time price we found. For capsules, Golden Monk's 1,000-count bag at $71.99 works out to about 7 cents per capsule.
It is the same species, Mitragyna speciosa. Maeng Da is a vendor trade name, and green refers to the vein color vendors assign. Compare batch lab reports rather than names.
