a ritual for
every hour of
your day.
Four cozy drinks, built around functional mushrooms we grow ourselves. Sharpen the morning, steady the afternoon, soften the night.
four drinks, one honest supply chain
the whole ritual, in one box
All four blends — mocha, cocoa, golden milk and reishi tea — so you can find the hour that's yours. Free shipping included.
two fungi, doing two very different jobs
vertically integrated, spore to bag
Most mushroom brands buy powder from a broker and print a label. We start with a culture in a petri dish and finish with a bag on your counter — every step under one roof, in our own facility. That's the only way to actually guarantee what's inside.

Not like caffeine does. The mocha has real coffee in it, so that part you'll notice. The mushrooms are the slow, cumulative part — most people say the difference shows up after a couple of weeks of daily sipping.
No. Lion's mane and reishi are culinary and functional mushrooms — the kind you'd find at a farmers market or in a tea shop. Nothing here is intoxicating.
The mocha is a full coffee drink. The cocoa has the small amount naturally present in cocoa. Golden milk and reishi tea are caffeine free — that's the point of them.
If you drink coffee, the mocha slots straight into your morning. If you want something for the evening, start with golden milk. If you can't decide, the ritual kit exists exactly for that.
It means no middlemen between the culture and your cupboard. We keep our own strains, mix our own substrate, fruit the mushrooms, dry and mill them, blend the drinks and fill the bags. If something isn't right, there's nobody else to ask.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when Shiitakes are ready to harvest?
Shiitakes are ready to harvest when the caps have opened and flattened but still have a slight curve — the edges should still be slightly rolled under. Don't wait until the caps go fully flat.
How do I harvest Shiitakes?
Gently twist your mushrooms from the base to harvest, or cut at the base with a sharp knife. All mushrooms should be washed and cooked before consumption.
Why is the cold water soak important?
The cold water soak is essential for Shiitakes — it triggers fruiting. Don't skip it. Submerge the block in cold water (40–50°F) for 8–12 hours before starting. Re-soak between flushes for consistent results.
Why do I remove the entire bag for Shiitakes?
The bag comes off completely for Shiitakes, unlike oyster and Lion's Mane kits. Shiitake naturally fruits from all surfaces, so removing the bag exposes the entire surface and maximizes yield.
My block has a bumpy, popcorn-like texture. Is that normal?
Shiitake blocks often develop a bumpy, popcorn-like texture on the surface as the mycelium matures. This is completely normal and is actually a sign that the block is ready to fruit.
How do I get a second or third flush?
For second and third flushes, let the block rest 1–2 weeks between harvests, then re-soak overnight in cool water. You can often get 2 to 4 flushes from a single block.
What temperature do Shiitakes prefer?
Shiitakes fruit best at 60–75°F. If your home is warmer, try a cooler spot. Avoid placing your block near direct heat or air conditioning.
Where can I learn more?
Check out our Strain Catalog page for variety-specific information. You can also read our blog post on what to do with your block after it's done fruiting, or visit our FAQ page for even more information.
