Pleasant taste and doesn't irritate the stomach. I took some to my parents to try and they really liked it, so the gift idea is sorted for a long time, because coffee always gets used up.

Exactly the product I've been looking for over the last few years! My problem has been that coffee irritates my stomach and gives me heartburn, but with this coffee I don't have those problems.
Another very positive surprise was how precisely the strength of the coffee has been set. After drinking it my head is clear and it perks me up more than a good quality matcha, but at the same time, no coffee jitters or other negative side effects. On top of that the taste is pleasant and I didn't notice any mushroom flavour in it...which is a plus :)Translated from Estonian

I drank this mushroom coffee. You can tell it's different from regular coffee. There's less of that heavy coffee taste and it's quite soft. Not bad, you do get a kick from it. But sadly I didn't start seeing a 6D world after the cup😢
Since I gave it to my son as a gift, I got his feedback today.

Lion's Mane Mushroom Coffee, Filter Grind 227 g -
I really like coffee in general - its aroma and taste and all those variations with cream and fats... Although I couldn't drink more than a couple of cups a day before, because I'd get a very strong, annoying jittery buzz.
Lion's Mane has taken my coffee enjoyment to a whole new level. You could say it has given me a coffee freedom I could never have imagined was possible! It's not even so much that I can drink more of THIS coffee - I don't really need more. But there's no longer that limit of physical jitters when I drink it. And I can easily have one in the late afternoon too if I feel like it. I don't even want regular coffee anymore :DTranslated from Estonian

Questions about lion's mane
The questions are written the way people actually search for lion's mane.
What is lion's mane?
Lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus) is an edible white mushroom with long, soft spines. Ra Hygge uses lion's mane fruiting body extract in coffee, alcohol free liquid extract, powdered extract and tea.
What is lion's mane used for?
Lion's mane is added to coffee, tea and drinks as part of a morning or workday ritual. In Asia it has been used in food and teas for centuries. Most Ra Hygge customers choose lion's mane for the morning or midday.
How and how much lion's mane should I take?
Coffee: 14 g per cup, we suggest two cups a day. Liquid extract: 1 to 3 ml (3 ml gives 360 mg of extract) in coffee, tea, juice or water. Powder: half a teaspoon (about 690 mg) in a drink.
When is the best time to take lion's mane?
Usually in the morning or at midday. The coffee suits the morning. The powder and drops are caffeine free, so they also suit midday and the afternoon.
Does Lion's Mane coffee contain caffeine?
Yes. Lion's Mane coffee is real Arabica coffee and contains caffeine like regular coffee. The mushrooms themselves contain no caffeine, so the alcohol free lion's mane extract is caffeine free.
How is mushroom coffee different from regular coffee?
Mushroom coffee is real roasted coffee with added extract from the fruiting bodies of edible mushrooms. Ra Hygge coffee is also low in acidity (Lion's Mane coffee has a pH of up to 6.0) because it is treated after roasting with a method patented in Finland.
Does Lion's Mane coffee taste of mushrooms?
Not really. In the cup you taste a medium roast, soft coffee and a light earthy umami. The low acidity makes the taste rounder.
What's the difference between lion's mane powder and liquid extract?
The liquid extract (100 ml) is concentrated 12:1 and dosed with a pipette; one bottle equals 150 g of dried lion's mane. The powdered extract (40 g, about 57 servings) dissolves instantly and suits smoothies, cocoa and coffee.
Can I take lion's mane with medication or during pregnancy?
If you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, talk to your doctor before using lion's mane products.
Where can I buy Lion's Mane coffee?
From the rahygge.ee online shop and selected Selver and Delice stores. The alcohol free lion's mane extract is available in Biotheka stores.
What are the benefits of lion's mane?
Lion's mane is known as the brain mushroom: people choose it for focus and a clear head, and for brain fog, mental fatigue and poor concentration. It is linked with nerve growth factor (NGF) and neuroplasticity. More in our mushroom guide.
Is lion's mane a psychedelic mushroom?
No. Lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus) is an edible culinary mushroom. It contains no psilocybin and has no intoxicating effect. In Asia it has been eaten as food and added to teas for centuries.

Latin Hericium erinaceus, English Lion's Mane, Estonian lõvilakk, Russian ежовик гребенчатый, Finnish siiliorakas, Latvian lauvas krēpes, Lithuanian liūto karčiai and German Löwenmähne. In Japan it is called yamabushitake.
