Ketapang kratom differs from several other strains in that it is extremely fast-acting with most users agreeing that they could feel it kicking in within 15 minutes or less. Of course, every user is different and no two people will share the same experience with it, but the shorter wait time and prolonged duration of effects is largely undeniable. Red Ketapang is also distinctive because it is much less bitter, therefore, more palatable than other kratoms. Most people also have less reactions of nausea, even at a higher dosage.
