Frequently Asked Questions
Why is your brand called Donuts Kratom? Do your products actually taste like donuts?
The Story Behind the Name: Donuts Kratom
While we’d love to share a grand backstory about how Donuts Kratom came to be, the truth is much simpler—and a bit serendipitous. One morning, during the early stages of developing the perfect flavor for their kratom shots, the founders were deep in conversation about how to make kratom more enjoyable. Then, a friend walked in with an unexpected treat: a box of donuts.
The founders, who didn’t typically indulge in sweets, were surprised by the sight and curious about the visit. As the friend sat down, they explained their latest challenge—trying to balance the taste of kratom with something palatable. With a grin, the friend quipped, “Well, eat a donut—maybe it’ll help!”
In that lighthearted moment, the name clicked: Donuts Kratom. The playful suggestion captured exactly what the founders wanted for the brand: a fun, enjoyable twist on an otherwise challenging product experience. From that day forward, they embraced the name, and Donuts Kratom was born.
And just to set expectations—no, the shots don’t taste like donuts. However, the team is toying with the idea of dessert-flavored kratom shots. Whether those flavors ever hit the market is still uncertain, but it’s a delicious possibility they’re actively exploring.
What is Kratom?
Mitragyna Speciosa, commonly referred to as kratom, is a tropical tree indigenous to Southeast Asia and belongs to the coffee family. These kratom trees thrive in the lush forests of Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Papua New Guinea. Notably, all kratom imported into the United States originates from Indonesia. The leaves of the kratom tree are carefully harvested from mature trees, subjected to a drying process, and then crushed. For centuries, the locals of Southeast Asia have been utilizing kratom leaves in their cultural practices and daily lives.
Donuts Kratom is intended for experienced kratom users. If you do not have experience with kratom please do not use this product. There can be risks associated with using kratom. Please do research and consult with your healthcare provider prior to using this product. Kratom may not be right for you.

Is your kratom lab tested?
At Donuts Kratom we uphold some of the most stringent standard operating procedures in the kratom industry.
Our commitment is exemplified through our rigorous three-step testing protocol conducted at accredited, third-party laboratories. This comprehensive process encompasses testing for alkaloid potency, heavy metals, and microbial safety.
Do your products have different strengths?
Donuts Kratom shots are available in two distinct strengths:
The Original 100mg
Each bottle of The Original 100mg contains 100mg of our premium kratom extract.
This extract contains an approximate 45% Mitragynine concentration, providing about 45mg of Mitragynine per bottle.
The recommended serving size is 10mL, equivalent to 1/3 of the bottle, delivering 15mg of Mitragynine.
The Gold Shot 250mg
Every bottle of The Gold Shot 250mg contains 250mg of our premium kratom extract.
This extract contains an approximate 45% Mitragynine concentration, providing about 112.5mg of Mitragynine per bottle.
The suggested serving size is 10mL, equivalent to 1/3 of the bottle, delivering 37.5mg of Mitragynine.
Understanding the strength of kratom products is crucial, particularly for newcomers to this botanical world. At Donuts Kratom, we specialize in crafting products using kratom extract, a concentrated form of kratom leaves that boasts significantly higher alkaloid potency compared to standard kratom leaf powder.
Our method of indicating strength involves specifying the total amount of extract used in each product. For instance, our kratom shots are expertly prepared with our exclusive "Golden Kratom Extract," which consistently contains approximately 45% Mitragynine concentration. While the exact Mitragynine concentration may vary slightly from batch to batch, it typically falls within the 45-50% range. This equates to approximately 45mg of Mitragynine for every 100mg of our extract.
To accurately gauge the potency of kratom products, it's essential to examine whether the product identifies its strength based on total extract or total Mitragynine. This distinction can significantly influence the product's potency. For instance, other kratom products may use extracts with 70% Mitragynine concentration, meaning you'd get 70mg of Mitragynine per 100mg of extract. Conversely, there are also 30% Mitragynine concentration extracts, where 100mg of extract yields 30mg of Mitragynine. As you can see, the potency level of a kratom product can vary significantly based on the Mitragynine concentration of the extract.
Unfortunately, not all kratom products clearly label their potency, leading to confusion for consumers. To ensure you make an informed choice, we encourage you to reach out to the manufacturer for clarification if you are uncertain about a product's strength before consumption. If the manufacturer cannot provide a clear answer, it may be best to consider alternative options. Your safety and satisfaction are of utmost importance to us.
