Hey, I would like to warn everyone of the kratom that is being sold at headshops in the U.S. recently. Last year, I would buy extracts every other day from headshops, and it was a really good high. It was a typical kratom high and tasted like how kratom extract should taste. One day in February, I went to get the extract as usual. My favorite kind was called "Experience Kratom Blue Label". When I opened the bag, I smelled the strongest peppermint smell. It did not smell or taste like kratom, but was the same product I have been using for a year. I was very confused, but decided to try it anyways. I thought that they maybe did this to cover up the taste, but after taking the kratom, I am suspecting that it is laced with another drug. In about 20 minutes, I got shaky. I started getting trails and got extremely nervous. No euphoria, no happy feelings, no pain relief. Kind of like an adderall feeling without the euphoria. I looked at the ingredients on the back and it said it was 100 percent natural. I went back to the head shop and bought another kind of kratom from the same company. This one was called "Black Label" instead of "Blue Label". Same thing happened, it didn't smell the same, but I just threw it away because the effects from the last one were extremely unpleasant. I am very upset with this because they are not selling what they are advertising. I am suspicious that it is laced with MDPV because I heard that MDPV tastes and smells like mint. Has anyone had any experiences with the "Experience" brands of kratom at headshops? I am surprised to see that nobody knows about this.

I know, headshop kratom is not supposed to be good, but I tried kratom from all over the net (about 10 different suppliers) and I never got a high that was better than what this brand at the headshop gave me.
 
PV neither tastes nor smells like mint, and buying stuff from headshops and expecting it to be pure is a bad idea anyway.

It sounds like someone's replacing it with something else. If you've tried a bunch of other kratom vendors it is likely that the stuff you were buying before was adulterated in some manner too.
 
It does sound like its being replaced by something else, what it could be, however, we can only speculate about.

Because we can only speculate and that's the opposite of harm reduction, I'm going to close this.

OP, please PM me if you have any questions.
