Reishi Mushroom

Ganoderma lucidum · Líng Zhī Neutro

Bitter, woody adaptogenic mushroom extracted into teas and hot cocoa, rich in triterpenes and beta-glucans.

Reishi is a glossy, woody medicinal mushroom too tough and bitter to eat whole — it is simmered into extracts, sliced into broths or blended into cocoa and coffee alternatives. It is treasured for its triterpenes and beta-glucan polysaccharides.
