Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is one of nature’s most extraordinary fungi. Found growing predominantly on birch trees in the cold forests of Northern Europe, Siberia and other northern regions, it looks more like a piece of burnt wood than a conventional mushroom.
Chaga has a long history of traditional use, particularly in Russia and Siberia. Today, it is valued for its natural antioxidant compounds and immune boosting properties.
One of Chaga’s most interesting characteristics is its concentration of dark pigments, including melanin, alongside naturally occurring polyphenols and polysaccharides. Researchers have investigated Chaga for its antioxidant properties, immune signalling and inflammation reduction.
Our Chaga is made exclusively from the organic fruiting body — the actual mushroom — rather than mycelium or a concentrated extract.
Our Organic Chaga is sustainably sourced from China and certified organic by the Soil Association.
Chaga develops its characteristic dark, charcoal-like appearance while growing on living trees, particularly birch. Its unusual structure and relationship with its host tree distinguish it from familiar cultivated mushrooms.
Chaga contains polyphenols, pigments and other naturally occurring compounds that have attracted scientific interest for their antioxidant activity.
Our Chaga is sourced from China, certified organic by the Soil Association and encapsulated in the UK. Each bottle contains 90 vegan capsules, without any fillers or additives.
Chaga is a fungus that grows primarily on birch trees in colder northern climates. Unlike mushrooms with familiar caps and stems, the part commonly collected as Chaga is a hard, irregular black growth known as a conk. Its outer surface is dark and cracked, while the interior is typically a distinctive orange-brown colour.
Our Chaga is made exclusively from the organic fruiting body — the actual mushroom — rather than mycelium or a concentrated extract.
Chaga has traditionally been dried and simmered in water to produce a dark, earthy infusion. Our capsule format provides a convenient alternative to preparing Chaga tea.
Chaga’s dark exterior contains melanin-like pigments, while the fungus also contains a range of naturally occurring phenolic compounds.
Polyphenols are a broad group of substances found throughout the natural world in plants and fungi. Modern research has shown that Chaga has significant antioxidant properties.
Chaga also contains complex carbohydrates known as polysaccharides, which are common constituents of fungal material. These compounds have been investigated in research exploring how Chaga extracts interact with immune cells and other biological systems.

Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is a fungus that typically grows on birch trees in cold northern climates.
It is recognised by its hard, black, charcoal-like exterior and distinctive orange-brown interior. Chaga has a long history of use in traditional infusions, particularly in Russia and Siberia.
Chaga contains naturally occurring phenolic compounds and dark pigments that have demonstrated significant antioxidant activity in laboratory research.
Chaga is unusual because the part commonly harvested is a hard, dark fungal growth rather than a familiar mushroom cap.
It also has a distinctive chemical composition, including melanin-like pigments and other compounds associated with its growth on birch trees.
Chaga is a fungus that infects certain living hardwood trees, particularly birch, and develops a characteristic sterile growth over time. Its association with birch is an important part of its natural history, although Chaga may also occur on other tree species.
No. They are different fungal species with different appearances, natural compounds and traditional histories.
Lion’s Mane is particularly associated with nervous-system processes and cognitive support, Reishi with calming, mood and sleep support and Chaga with its dark pigments and birch-tree habitat, with potent antioxidant activity and immune support.
Chaga contains a mixture of polysaccharides, phenolic compounds and dark pigments, including melanin-like substances. Researchers have also investigated triterpenoid compounds associated with Chaga, although their amounts vary depending on the raw material and preparation.
Yes, Chaga preparations have shown significant antioxidant activity in laboratory testing.
Yes. Our Chaga is certified organic by the Soil Association.
Yes. Our Chaga is supplied in plant-derived HPMC capsules, suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
