In this guide, we explore what makes Green Hulu Kapuas Kratom so unique.
What is Green Hulu Kapuas Kratom?
Green Hulu is a “Green-veined” strain of kratom that is both balanced and potent. Although more difficult to get your hands on, those who have experienced it often say everyone should try it at least once.
Although all kratom comes from the same parent plant, the Mitragyna Speciosa, Green Hulu is unique in its alkaloid content, concentration, effects, its method of cultivation, processing and more.
Where Does Green Hulu Kapuas Come From?
This strain of kratom comes from Borneo, the third-largest island nation in the world, and the largest island nation in all of Asia.
This large rugged island of Borneo is one of the last corners of the world left largely untouched by civilization, known for lush tropical ecosystems, Hulu Forrest, and the Kapuas River. It is along this river’s banks where the famed Mitragyna speciosa tree grows.
Mitragyna speciosa evergreens grown along the river are carefully cared for and cultivated by local farmers whose families have centuries of experience working with this majestic tree. At just the right moment of maturity, the leaves of the trees are hand-selected and picked.
It is from these leaves that Green Hulu Kapuas comes from.
What Makes Hulu Kratom a Rare Strain?
Although other strains of Hulu Kratom exist independently (such as Red or White Hulu), the “Green Hulu Kapuas” is a special breed. Grown along the secluded and isolated riverbanks of the Kapuas River, this kratom comes from where the Hulu Forrest meets the river’s murky waters.
Its relative difficulty of access makes it hard to grow, care for, and process, leading to a very limited supply. Adding to it’s allure, is that Hulu kratom powder is made only from the most mature leaves with visually green veins.
Combined with a seasonal growth pattern, the trees from which Hulu Kratom is made are both scarce and demanding.
How is Green Hulu Kapuas Made?
It all starts along the muddied banks of the Kapuas river, where the mighty and revered Mitragyna Speciosa grows. These trees are carefully looked after, using knowledge passed down throughout the generations by families of local farmers.
Only when the leaves reach between 5-8 years of maturity are they ready for selection. At this time each leaf is carefully inspected for size, composition, health, and most importantly, the color of its stem and veins. When ready, the veins and stems of these leaves will be green, giving the Hulu Kapuas its “Green” nomenclature (name).
After careful selection, each leaf is hand-picked and taken to a local shelter where they are spread out flat where they dry under careful observation and climate control. This process ensures they can be removed for further processing at the precise moment they have achieved the optimal alkaloid concentrations.
The dried leaves are then crushed and ground into a fluffy and consistent powder that can be used in a wide range of kratom products and applications, including but not limited to kratom capsules, raw kratom powder, topical solutions and more.
What Does Green Hulu Kapuas Taste Like?
Fresh Hulu Kapuas Kratom has a brisk aroma reminiscent of botanicals and earthy notes. The taste is similar to that of other kratom strains you may have experienced. Green Hulu Kratom has been described as tasting ‘herbal’, ‘grassy’ and ‘leafy’. Of note is kratom’s notorious bitterness which some find off-putting. This can be easily masked in sweet foods, blended drinks, or by taking it in tasteless capsules.
What is the Alkaloid Content of the Hulu Kapuas Strain?
Kratom’s effects are mostly due to it’s alkaloid content. Alkaloids are naturally occurring compounds that occur mostly in plants, and are usually involved in several plant biological processes.
Each strain of kratom contains a unique composition of alkaloids in varying concentrations and potencies, resulting in a wide range of different effects and potential benefits.
The two primary alkaloids present in Green Hulu Kapuas Kratom are 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine. These two alkaloids work synergistically together to elicit several desirable effects.
But these two leading candidates aren’t the only alkaloids present.
The effects of Green Hulu are complimented and potentiated by several other alkaloids including:
- 7-acetoxy mitragynine
- 3-dehydromitragynin
- Corynantheidin
- 3-isopaynanthein
- 3-isocorynantheidin
- Epicatechin
- Corinoxin
- Corynoxein
- MItraciliatin
- Isomitraphyllin
- Mitraspecin
- Mitrafolin
- Paynantheine
- Mitraphylline
- Mitraversin
- Speciogynin
- Speciofolin
- Specionoxein
Why is Green Hulu Kapuas Considered the Best By Many Users?
Although ‘green vein’ kratom is common among all types of kratom, the Hulu Kapuas is quite unique. Unlike other types of kratom, Hulu grows in three different leaves, with both white and red-veined leaves apparent on the same tree.
It is the green-veined variety of leaves on this tree that hold a special combination of alkaloids in just the right concentrations to elicit a unique effect that is adored by users around the world.
Heralded for it’s mild yet potent properties, Green Hulu is purported to be a smooth ride from start to finish, perfectly melding the best properties of red and white strains without being too overpowering.
It is this balanced experience that makes Green Hulu so sought after. Some find that it is the perfect accompaniment for kicking mornings off right, giving them the energy to tackle the day ahead. Others prefer it for social occasions and ‘taking off the edge’.

What Strains are Similar to Green Hulu Kratom?

Green strains tend to be more balanced, offering a blend of effects found in both red and white varieties.

Nice strain. Similar burn to green borneo but more soothing and relaxing, not as energizing.

I am a big Green Hulu kratom fan. It has a nice blend of everything I enjoy about kratom. Great daytime strain!
Holly –
Green Hulu Kapuas is by far my favorite kratom strain. I’m a middle-aged female with social anxiety and this strain allows me to enjoy myself without the buildup of nervous energy that usually happens in social settings. Also, it has quite unexpectedly increased my sex drive, which is amazing! I highly recommend it!
Todd –
I used Green Hulu for my first kratom experience as it was recommended by a friend. Nothing short of amazing.I am focused, and have an overall sense of well being. Although this was my first time trying kratom, I highly recommend green hulu and this company.
Donna –
Took two grams. It’s an hour later and I’m going to take another gram because I felt it for only 15 minutes total. By far the mildest strain I’ve tried and first green I’ve tried, all others were red. I hit pay dirt from taking that one extra gram. I have a sense of well-being that is light, calm, and steady. As opposed to the intense excitement of a quick euphoric rush. This Green Hulu is quiet, serene, and soothing. I’m stoked!!!!!

THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!
There are no words to describe my joy, relief and pleasure that I found something that actually really works!!! I’m still new to Kratom and have tried “Thai” and “Maeng da” at a local shop after learning about Kratom on an episode of “Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia”, very fascinating and informative! It was just by chance that I came across the tv show but it changed everything for me!! I was so very skeptical having tried just about anything and everything else possible!!! These two I tried were not nearly as potent or as effective (and cost me so much more)! While they did provide some relaxation and relief they were not nearly as effective as the product I received from you. The cost at the local business cost SO MUCH more I knew there was no way I was going to be able to continue and then I found your web site WOO HOO!!!! I learned so much more from both your descriptions and client reviews and I can actually afford it!
So very, very grateful!

Once again, another superior product from Kratom Connection. Great energy and lift, but seriously the quality you get from here is unrivaled. I’ve had Green Hulu I enjoyed from two others, but none at the same quality these guys offer. Definitely a must buy on my list.
Enrique Murguia –
Botanically, Hulu Kapuas Kratom is the good old Mitragyna speciosa, but its effects aren’t the same. It is a modified version of classic Kratom leaves. It originates from Southeast Asia and is famous for its miraculous benefits. The Hulu Kapuas grows in thick and dense forests of Indonesia, particularly the area near the Borneo Island. Green HULU is hard to find;The riverbank of Hulu is almost an isolated area. There is no native population, and it is not easy to go there. Even though Hulu Kapuas Kratom is an old strain, many people do not know about it. The reason is that it is difficult to access it. As a Ktratom advocate, please be careful about purchasig from shady retailers.
Monique –
Best strain they have!
JOSEPH DESTRO –
I can work outside all day, go golfing the same day and still come home to relax without issues. I find the Green Hulu blend comfortably energizing as well if you take more than normal. The Folks at Kratom Connection are also great to work with.
Jesse Renaux –
If I could give them 10 stars, I would. I love this Green Hulu so much!! It gives me a spike of energy during my midday lul and I’m good for the rest of the day. no jitters, and enough energy to get about twice as much done as I normally would be able to. The quality of this product is something I haven’t been able to find in years. These guys are awesome! Shipping is extremely fast as well!
Tiffany jones –
Excellence product!
Mary Jennifer –
Green Hulu is potent indeed. I was using 3 tsps of the stuff i got locally, or from another place in Canada, but this is so powerful, I only need 1 tsp! (too much and I get the wobbles.) Mixed w/oj & down the hatch, 20 mins later, it’s simply magical. And the service is stellar., which i’ll say again and again… One of the red strains I can’t remember the name of atm is really, REALLY good at night. I fell asleep on the sofa sitting up!
Thanks, guys! –Mary in Delaware

My wife and I have been using Green Hulu for almost two years. We have taken it every day since we started with kratom and the effects have been super beneficial. We’ve tried other strains but this is the best for us. 2 teaspoons a day and we both can be active which isn’t usual for people our age (93 and 86). We hiked to the top of Mt. Whitney using the face instead of the stairs and I feel like that accomplishment was only due to this wonderful plant and this company for proving me the ease of ordering this unusual product.
Maggie Bennett –
Thank KC for being a reliable, consistant supplier for the wonderful product that is Kratom!
benecio –
I have been switching strains regularly and also trying various suppliers. I have come to the conclusion that Green Hulu is my personal favorite. Seems like I need less green hulu to feel my desired effects that any other strain. And the kratom connection has very strong and fresh powder. feels like my body absords it better than the smoke shop kratom too. A+ guys thanks.
Raul Ruiz –
First time customer. Good customer service, fair pricing, and the product is high quality. Will be back

Driving truck all day takes a toll on the human body and it is a very necessary job. I was taking Red Bentuangie but was having a hard time staying awake and focused. The gentleman on the phone recommended Green Hulu as an alternative and I can’t be happier. Now I feel more comfortable in the truck and life on the road is going swell 🙂
