Reishi Mushroom Tincture – Signature Dual Extract
Ganoderma lucidum
Reishi, dual extract
Our Reishi tincture is a dual extract made from UK-grown Reishi fruiting bodies and prepared in small batches.
Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is instantly recognisable by its kidney-shaped cap and deep red, lacquered sheen. Too woody and bitter for the kitchen, it has instead been prepared as teas and extracts for well over two thousand years. Known as lingzhi in China, it appears throughout Chinese art as a symbol of longevity and good fortune, and today it is often part of people's evening routines.
We extract the fruiting bodies in hot water, using ultrasonic extraction, and in plant-derived ethanol, then combine the two extracts into a single tincture. Nothing else goes in: no fillers, no grain-grown mycelium, no preservatives.

Our extraction process
Every bottle passes through the same careful stages, in batches small enough to watch closely.
Step 1: Selected
Carefully selected mushrooms: UK-grown fruiting bodies, and wild chaga from Finland.
Step 2: Extracted
Extracted in hot water with the help of ultrasound, and separately in ethanol.
Step 3: Combined
Each extract is carefully brought together into the finished formulation.
Step 4: Bottled
Prepared in small batches in Dorset.
How it's made
Fruiting body first
We use whole fruiting bodies rather than grain-grown biomass. Our chaga, which grows differently, is wild-harvested from birch.
Small-batch preparation
Prepared in deliberately limited batches in Dorset, so each one can be looked after properly.
Dual extraction
Hot water with ultrasonic extraction, and ethanol, each draw out different mushroom constituents.
Carefully sourced
Lion's Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps and Oyster are grown in the UK. Our chaga is wild-harvested in Finland.
