Known as the “Diamond of the Forest”, Chaga grows slowly on birch trees across the cold northern forests of Siberia, Scandinavia and the Baltic. Its coal‑black, cracked exterior and rich amber interior have made it a familiar sight in Siberian, Baltic and Indigenous traditions, where it has been brewed as a warming forest tea for centuries.
Our Chaga Extract is carefully processed to a refined 20:1 concentration, standardised to 50% polysaccharides and 30% beta‑glucans, and is 100% water‑soluble, so it dissolves effortlessly into teas, tonics and ceremonial blends. Its smooth, earthy flavour with gentle vanilla and woody notes makes it a grounding companion for daily rituals, meditation and kitchen craft.
This extract is offered for human consumption, suitable for culinary use, ceremonial blends, and traditional enjoyment.
