Organic Shiitake Mushroom Tincture

• Dual Extracted, No Heavy Metal Residues, Manufactured in Finland and Bottled in the UK.

  We dual-extract dried shiitake at a ratio of 1:20. This ensures each bottle of liquid extract is potent with all the important compounds extracted. Compounds of interest in shiitake include:
  ● Beta-glucans
  ● Eritadenine
  ● Sterols

• Only Fruiting Bodies Used

  We don’t sell mycelium-based products and only use the mushroom fruiting bodies.
  What are those, you might ask? Fruiting body is the above ground actual mushroom, and mycelium is the underground root network of the mushroom. We believe you can’t rush great quality, and while mycelium can be cultivated in laboratory conditions and claimed as mushroom, it can lack those good-for-you compounds you are after.
  It is important to make sure where your mushrooms come from and how they are made because it can make a significant difference in the quality and the healing properties.

• Organic Farm

  We use mainly birch logs in our outdoor mushroom farm to cultivate Reishi, Maitake, Shiitake, and Turkey tail mushrooms – just to name a few. Logs take a long time to fruit, but are famous for producing the most potent fruiting bodies.
  We don’t take shortcuts to rush Nature!
  When purchasing our organic mushroom extracts, you are guaranteed the best quality of functional mushrooms crafted with precision and advance science to ensure that you are getting all medicinal benefits that will improve your well-being and also ensure the health of our forests and our beautiful planet.

• Why Finland?

  Mushroom growing outdoors need a suitable environment to thrive. Luckily Finland excels in all elements needed by mushrooms: air, soil, and water. WHO measured the purest air in Lapland, Finland, and Finnish water is said to be the best water in the World by UNESCO.
  When it comes to mushrooms, the further North you go, the more potent mushrooms’ medicinal compounds get. Finland’s long and harsh winters force plants and fungi to utilize the short summers to the fullest. This makes a unique touch to Finnish outdoor grown food products.

• Forest Growing Network

  Our suppliers of mushrooms use only continuous cover forest management in their forests. Our mushroom substrate, which means healthier more biodiverse forests.

• Two Mycological Laboratories
  Our mycological laboratory is where the magic starts. We isolate mushroom mycelium into a petri dish and then grow mushrooms in a FSC certified, organic birch wood substrate.
• Indoor Growing Facilities
  Indoor mushroom growing & supply chain network Partnered with two additional companies to assist in securing and quickly increasing mushroom supply.

We grow organic shiitake (Lentinula edodes), outdoors on our mushroom farm in Karjalohja, Finland. Our Shiitake grows in birch logs, which is a 1,000 years old Japanese technique. This method ensures the highest quality fruiting bodies are used. We inoculate the birch logs in the spring, then shiitake colonizes the log and fruits the following year.
