Organic Maitake Fruiting Body
Birch Boys Maitake fruiting body is sustainably sourced from expert, organic growers in the USA.
- - USDA Organic
- - Third Party Tested
- - 100% US origin
Organic Cane Alcohol (22%)
- - We source our organic cane alcohol from a top-quality US distillery.
- - Alcohol is essential in order to extract the full range of Maitake's healing compounds - it comprises 22% of our tinctures.
Distilled Water
- Distilled water is the foundation of our tinctures. Pure water has the most capacity for extraction of bioactive compounds.

Why Alcohol?
We use both hot water and high-proof organic alcohol to extract the full range of Maitake benefits. (Maitake shares a lot in common with Shiitake mushroom benefits, but we find Maitake is even more potent!) Alcohol-soluble compounds like triterpenoids can’t be unlocked through water alone, making this method essential for a truly potent tincture.
