Chaga Mushroom Chopped

Chaga Mushroom (Inonotus obliquus)
Earthy, woody, and deeply rooted in traditional Northern European and Siberian herbal practices, Chaga Mushroom comes from Inonotus obliquus, a fungus that grows primarily on birch trees in cold climates. Known for its dark, charcoal-like exterior and rich, earthy interior, chaga has been used for centuries as a traditional wellness tea.
