Highlighting the reishi mushroom, also known as the mushroom of immortality, this delightful benefits-rich mushroom tea blend brews into a delicious, easy-to-drink tea.
Known as the Mushroom of Immortality, the reishi mushroom enjoys an ancient reputation as somewhat of a miracle fungus. Revered as the most powerful tonic in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine, this rare medicinal mushroom is considered a foundational substance, a tonic that practitioners recommend enjoying daily. We have incorporated cinnamon and rooibos into this blend to maintain all of the benefits of reishi while providing a sweet, nurturing flavor.
This highly respected fungus makes its home in East Asia, and has been an important part of Chinese culture for more than 2,000 years. In fact, reishi is the oldest mushroom to be used among herbalists the world over. Reishi mushroom likes dead things … really! Reishi prefers growing on trees that are either dead or dying, and, ironically, sometimes grows off a particular type of hemlock. (Socrates is said to have committed suicide by ingesting a drink made with hemlock.) It boasts a shiny, red hue that gets darker as it ages. These mushrooms are loyalists, committing to growing on the same tree for years.
