For those of you new to Kratom in general, Thai has traditionally been considered to be a better quality product than our Bali Premium Commercial. It offers a nice middle ground for those who don't want to pay the higher prices of 15x but prefer a slightly better quality. Our Thai Red Vein De-stemmed is a step above our Green Vein. The quality and rarity of the plant itself, in addition to the extra effort that goes in to, de-stemming and de-veining, makes for a noticeably superior product.
