Ingredients
What's actually in the bottle
The whole Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) fruit body, wild harvested.
Recovered from the same mushrooms and returned to the tincture in the final spagyric step.
Used to draw out the alcohol soluble compounds.
Used in the hot water extraction, which draws out the water soluble compounds.
Rooted in tradition
Flowing beauty on the forest floor.
Turkey Tail grows in thin, overlapping shelves on hardwoods, banded in cream, rust, brown, green, and faded blue. Its Latin name, Trametes versicolor, means thin and many colored, and what looks like a cluster of many mushrooms is often one connected organism.
It is one of the most widely used medicinal mushrooms in the world, and it appears in the Shennong Bencao Jing, the oldest surviving Chinese materia medica. It has long been used to support immune and digestive health.
Planetary correspondence
Venus
Turkey Tail is associated with Venus. Its concentric bands of color flow into one another like ripples on water, a signature of the beauty and harmony Venus governs, and Venus also rules the reproductive system, one of Turkey Tail's traditional affinities.

What sets us apart
Why our extracts are different
The part of the mushroom used traditionally.
We start with the mushroom itself, U.S. grown or wild harvested, never mycelium on grain. A tincture can only be as good as what goes into it.
A Complex Whole Mushroom Extract.
Alcohol draws out the compounds water leaves behind, like triterpenes and sterols. Hot water draws out the water soluble beta glucans. We run both, so the finished tincture carries both.
Mineral salts returned.
In the final spagyric step, we recover the mineral salts from the spent mushroom and return them to the tincture, so the extract is completed with the mushroom's own minerals.

FAQ
Questions? Here are your answers
Everyone is different. Mushrooms are traditionally taken daily as part of a routine, so consistency matters more than any single dose.
A tincture is quick to take and easy to adjust. Take it under your tongue or add it to a drink. Our spagyric tinctures carry the alcohol soluble, water soluble, and mineral parts of the mushroom in one bottle.
Many people take our extracts alongside other supplements. If you take prescription medication, are pregnant or nursing, or have a medical condition, check with your healthcare provider before adding a new supplement.
Earthy and mild, true to the mushroom itself. It mixes easily into coffee, tea, or juice.
Yes. Many people add it to their morning coffee or tea.

Keep it in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Best if used by the date on the label.
Yes. Every batch is tested by a third party lab for microbes. We also test for pesticides, heavy metals, and identity on a skip lot schedule, and we confirm the identity of every raw material when it arrives.
Not yet! While we have tested multiple rounds of tinctures, we have experienced inconsistency with current labs and methods. The Megazyme protocol, typical for beta glucan assays, was initially designed for yeast, and the method is for powders. It is a destructive method that gives general beta glucan content, but does not distinguish between beta glucan types. It also is not effective in most cases for liquid extracts, and most labs process them inconsistently. As for secondary metabolites, there are currently no validated methods for secondary mushroom metabolites on the market. We have preliminary data on quality we are happy to share, but we will not publish COAs on metabolite profiles until we are confident in the information that is being represented.
