Known as “The King Of Medicinal Mushrooms”, Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is a slow-growing fungus with a deep relationship to the forests it comes from.
Found growing on mature birch trees in cold northern climates, Chaga has been gathered for centuries across Northern Europe, Russia, and parts of Asia. Traditionally, it was valued not for quick results or stimulation, but for its steady, grounding presence and its association with long-term resilience and balance.
Unlike faster-growing fungi, Chaga develops over many years, shaped by cold, wind, and time. Folk traditions describe it as deeply earthy and robust in character, often prepared patiently as part of daily or seasonal routines rather than used occasionally or in haste.
Our Chaga powder begins life as whole, wild-foraged Chaga, harvested by hand from remote Scottish birch forests, far from roads, agriculture, and pollution. The dried chunks are then carefully ground into a fine powder, making Chaga easier to work with while staying true to traditional preparation methods.
Powdered Chaga offers a more accessible way to build this slow, steady fungus into everyday rhythms — whether prepared gently in hot water or incorporated into longer infusions over time.
This is Chaga in a form that fits modern routines, without losing its ancient patience.
Wild Scottish Chaga (Inonotus obliquus)
Chaga powder is traditionally steeped gently in hot water or simmered briefly, then strained before use.
• Wild foraged in the Scottish Highlands
• Finely ground from whole Chaga chunks
• Deep, earthy, and grounding in character
• Prepared slowly, without shortcuts
