Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) or the King of Medicinal Mushrooms, is the second most antioxidant-rich food in the world.
Chaga has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries, but also in shamanic medicine in Siberia, and Russia in general.
We use Chaga to make our Chaga Tea and Chaga Kombucha.

Chaga is also the biggest source of melanin, as it contains up to 25% by volume (Melanin concentrates in the dark, outer part of the mushroom).
Melanin performs many important functions in the body, like working as an strong anti-degenerative component combating premature aging.
