A Cup Worth Rising For
Every great morning starts with a great cup. Lion’s Mane Coffee pairs hand-selected Arabica beans, roasted in small batches by local roasters here in central Pennsylvania, with lion’s mane mushroom powder and a touch of cacao. The result is smooth and full-bodied, with a deep, earthy character and a soft cacao finish.
Just Three Ingredients
Ground Arabica coffee. Lion’s mane mushroom powder. Cacao powder. No fillers, no sweeteners, no flavor tricks. Ground for automatic drip, so there’s nothing new to learn.
Tasting Notes
Smooth. Earthy. Nutty. Cacao finish.
How to Brew
Use 2 Tbsp per 6 oz of water in your automatic drip machine. Shake the sealed bag gently before opening, since natural ingredients settle. The powders are finer than coffee grounds, so brew an additional 5-7 minutes longer than usual so they fully extract, (time may very per machine). Adjust to taste, because coffee is personal.
About Lion’s Mane
Lion’s mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a shaggy white mushroom that has been used in East Asian cooking and traditional practice for centuries. Today it’s one of the most studied culinary mushrooms.
What the Research Says
Researchers are studying lion’s mane, and here’s an honest summary of where the science stands:
- In a 2023 randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study at Northumbria University, 41 healthy adults took 1.8 g of lion’s mane. An hour after a single dose they were faster on a cognitive task. A trend toward lower stress after 28 days didn’t reach statistical significance, and the authors urged caution because the study was small.
- In a 16-week Japanese trial of older adults with mild cognitive impairment, the lion’s mane group scored higher on a cognitive scale than the placebo group. The scores declined after the supplement was stopped.
- Published reviews describe the human evidence as promising but small, short, and mixed, and call for larger studies.
These studies used measured amounts of concentrated lion’s mane and did not test this product. We’re sharing the research because we think it’s interesting, not to promise any result.
