The Best Chaga?

Oh Chaga, how I love thee...

I introduced you to one of my favorite healthy foods in Do You Chaga?  As I learn more and more of all the health benefits behind this magical mushroom, I am becoming more and more obsessed with including it in my daily routine. Yes, even on a 90-degree day, I Chaga!

Sadly, my daily routine was rudely interrupted when my dealer supplier up and changed their recipe!  I used to love the mellow flavor of Four Sigma Food's Chaga, but now I can't stand the taste of it.  I do still travel with it because the convenience of the instant powder & travelability of the single serve packets can't be beat, but it's not as enjoyable.  That being said, it's a little on the pricey side, so maybe this was the Universe's way of telling me to keep searching...

So search I did...

And that lead me to Siberian Chaga Mushroom Loose Tea Exclusive blend of raw and extract powder.  I adore the flavor of this brewable tea, sadly it does not play well with Mr. Manatea; some, OK a lot of the particles are so fine that they slip through the holes of Mr Manatea, making for a not so pleasurable end game.

The search continued...

Which brings me to my new love...Maine Chaga Tea Chunks.  Sure, the thought of brewing what looks like a piece of wood may seem a little odd at first, but you get over it fast. The yummy taste, the no mess/no fuss brewing and economics of indulging Chaga this way will have you stocking up. $22 bucks for a 4-ounce bag or $5.50 an ounce seems like a steep price tag until you factor in that each delectable Chaga chunk can be brewed up to 4-6 times! That means one bag can brew up to 30 - 40 cups of tea! How cool is that?!?! And the brewing could not be simpler; all you do is drop one chunk into mugful of boiling water and steep up to 15 minutes or leave it in for a stronger brew like I do - add a little coconut sugar and it's Zen time. Then just let the Chaga chunk air dry between uses and it's good to go for another round. Bye, bye strainers, ta-ta tea bags...
