Chaga tincture

C$28.00

• Medicinal: Ethically and sustainably harvested Inonotus obliquus (chaga) from the boreal forest , mushrooms 5:1 – double extraction.
• Non-medicinal: alcohol, spring water.
☞ The complete process for making tinctures is done by a certified herbalist, from harvest to bottling.

☞ All our tinctures are made from medicinal plants grown on our farm and carefully selected during our harvests, always done by hand. We harvest chaga mushrooms ethically from our forest and surrounding forests. Harvesting is done in winter, when the chaga is at its highest potential. We only take part of the fungus from the tree.

☞ The mushrooms are then spread on grids and inspected a second time before being cut into pieces and infused in small batches for a long period of several weeks in an alcohol appropriate for the plant and stored in a cool, dark room. When the right time is right, we filter the mushrooms and do the double extraction in water. Once this procedure is completed, we filter everything but we do not use a micro-filter, thus letting interesting but slightly larger molecules pass, such as resins, polysaccharides, etc. The result: a product full of active ingredients with a few small deposits!

☞ Behind every dye pot there is a lot of sunshine, clean and fresh air, irrigation from the sky or by human intervention as well as a passionate thunder team that puts a lot of energy from the first seed in the ground to the month of February, to the thousands of small seedlings transplanted in the greenhouse all spring, to the big harvests and the arduous weeding under the radiant sun of the summer months, until the gardens close during the cold autumn months to prepare them to be reborn again next spring, reminding us that everything has a cycle.
