Description

A small-batch dual extract of wild-harvested chaga (Inonotus obliquus) from Finnish birch forests, made in Dorset by Spore & Bloom.

About chaga

Chaga doesn’t look like a typical mushroom. It grows on birch trees as a hard, black, cracked mass with a rusty orange-brown interior, and it’s this growth, rather than a cap and stem, that is harvested. For centuries it has been brewed as a tea in Finland, Russia and across northern Europe, where birch forests are common.

How it’s made

Our chaga is wild-harvested from birch in Finland. We extract it twice: in hot water with the help of ultrasound, and separately in ethanol. Each solvent draws out different naturally occurring constituents, and the two extracts are combined into one tincture at a 1:3 ratio.

How to take it

Shake well. Take 1–2ml daily, directly or added to water, juice or tea. Do not exceed 3ml per day. A 50ml bottle lasts about 25 days at the suggested amount.

Ingredients

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) extract, water, plant-derived ethanol (30% alcohol).
