We especially recommend this variant to those who are looking for general benefits of mushroom extracts and powders, for every day and for the whole body.
Specialty organic coffee
The coffee for this blend comes from the mountains of western Guatemala, from the COMAL cooperative, which, among other things, focuses on equal rights for women among growers, of whom about half are in the cooperative. In addition to coffee, local farmers grow other crops, helping to conserve biodiversity and protect local ecosystems.
The coffee comes from an altitude of 1400-2000 m above sea level, is processed by the washed method and has the characteristics of apples, milk chocolate and nuts.
The coffee is selective, bought fairly, it is in BIO quality.
Organic extract and powder Chaga
Chaga (oblique rust) is a part of traditional Russian and Chinese medicine. People believe in its ability to revitalize and calm the body and spirit.
In the chaga mushroom we can find beta glucans, flavonoids, sterols, but also a number of vitamins, minerals, melanin and betulinic acid. In traditional Chinese medicine, chaga can be associated with the nutrition of Gan (liver), Shen (kidney) and Xin (heart), the transformation of Tan (mucus), the revival of Xue (blood), the calming of the spirit or the support of defensive Qi.

Organic extract and powder Hericium
Hericium (Lion's Mane) is a fungus that has a strong place in traditional Chinese medicine.
Like other vital fungi, hericium is rich in polysaccharides - beta glucans, minerals, but also hericium specific - diterpenoids. But we can also find palmitic acid or provitamin D2 in it.
In traditional Chinese medicine, we can find a connection with hericity to strengthen Wei (stomach), replenishment of Pi (spleen), aid digestion, or calm the spirit of Shen. Furthermore, the Lion's Mane is mentioned in this medicine is regards to strengthening the activity of the brain or acting on the organ systems.

BETTER COFFEE
Our coffee is fair and comes exclusively from smaller farmers. All grains are of organic quality and in their selection we also pay attention to aspects such as the support of agricultural polycultures, which help to preserve diversity. Growing coffee together with other crops offers space for the existence of local fauna and flora.
