Appalachian Shroomery is a working mushroom farm—not simply a marketing company placing its label on generic products. Our hands-on experience growing mushrooms shapes the standards we use when selecting, extracting and blending ingredients.

We focus on fruiting-body mushroom extracts, straightforward formulas, small-batch preparation and products people can realistically enjoy as part of their daily routines.

We use fruiting-body mushroom extracts without myceliated grain or grain-based fillers.

The fruiting body is the recognizable mushroom itself. Mycelium is the network of fungal strands from which mushrooms grow. Some products are made by growing mycelium on grain and grinding the entire material together, leaving a considerable amount of grain in the finished powder.

Yes. Our mushroom ingredients are hot-water-extracted fruiting-body powders. Extraction separates water-soluble mushroom compounds from the mushroom’s naturally tough structural material.

This is different from simply drying a mushroom and grinding it into ordinary mushroom powder.

No. Our mushroom extracts are produced using hot water without alcohol extraction.

Our individual mushroom extracts contain no myceliated grain, grain-based fillers or unnecessary additives. For blended products such as our mushroom coffee, please review the product label for the complete ingredient list.

We use organic ingredients when practical and clearly identify products or ingredients as organic where applicable. We do not describe an entire product as certified organic unless that specific finished product carries the appropriate certification.

Most customers tell us it tastes like a rich, smooth cup of coffee—not like mushrooms. The mushroom extracts have naturally earthy characteristics, but they are balanced with coffee, cacao, MCT powder, lucuma, beet, chicory root inulin and mesquite.

Many customers who normally use cream or sweetener tell us they enjoy our coffee without adding anything.

Yes. Our Craft Mushroom Coffee is an instant beverage. No coffee maker, filter or brewing equipment is required. Add it to hot water, stir well and enjoy.

Add approximately 1 tablespoon, or about 6 grams, to 8 ounces of hot water. Stir well. You can adjust the amount of water to make the flavor stronger or milder.

Cream, milk and sweetener may be added according to your preference.

Yes. Original Craft Mushroom Coffee contains caffeine naturally present in coffee. Individual caffeine sensitivity varies, so consider the time of day and your personal tolerance when using it.

Decaffeinated coffee can still contain a small amount of naturally occurring caffeine. Our Decaf Craft Mushroom Coffee is intended for customers who want substantially less caffeine, but it should not be considered completely caffeine-free.

Our 180-gram Craft Mushroom Coffee bags contain approximately 30 servings when prepared using a 6-gram serving.

The 2-pound bag contains approximately 150 servings. The number of servings you receive may vary slightly depending on how generously you measure each tablespoon.

Yes. First dissolve the powder in a small amount of warm or hot water, then add cold water and ice. This usually produces a smoother drink than attempting to dissolve the powder directly in ice-cold water.

Mushroom extract powder can be mixed into coffee, tea, cacao, smoothies, broth or another beverage. Follow the serving directions shown on the specific product package.

Because the extracts have natural earthy flavors, many customers prefer mixing them into a flavored beverage rather than plain water.

Many customers include more than one mushroom in their routines. However, pay attention to the amounts already present in blended products so you do not unintentionally duplicate servings.

Our Craft Mushroom Coffee already contains Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi and Turkey Tail extracts. Our Focus + Energy 50/50 Blend contains both Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps.

It is an equal blend of Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps fruiting-body extracts. We created it for customers who want the convenience of using both mushrooms without measuring two separate powders.

That depends on what you want from your daily routine:

• Lion’s Mane is commonly chosen for focus, clarity and productivity.
• Cordyceps is popular among people interested in energy and an active lifestyle.
• Reishi is often selected for balance and an evening wellness routine.
• Turkey Tail is especially popular among customers interested in digestive and gut wellness.
• Focus + Energy 50/50 Blend combines Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps in one product.

Experiences vary considerably. Mushroom extracts are foods and dietary ingredients—not fast-acting medications—and individual responses depend on the person, product and pattern of use.

We recommend focusing on consistent use rather than expecting an immediate or dramatic sensation.

Store the package tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. Always reseal the pouch after use and use a clean, dry utensil when measuring powder.

No. Properly sealed dry powders do not require refrigeration. Refrigeration can sometimes introduce condensation when a package is repeatedly opened, so a cool, dry cabinet is generally preferable.

Powders can naturally absorb moisture from the air, especially in humid environments. Clumping does not necessarily indicate a problem with the product. Keep the package sealed and avoid introducing moisture with a wet spoon.

The best-by date and lot information are printed or labeled on the package. Contact us if you have difficulty locating them.
