Reishi Tincture – Complete Guide to Extraction, Use, and Sourcing
This page serves as a complete reference for Reishi tincture, including how it’s extracted, how people use it, how long it lasts, and how it fits alongside the other mushroom tinctures we produce.
This guide refers to our Reishi tincture, which is produced using our dual-extraction process and available here.
Reishi has been cultivated and used for centuries, known for its distinct appearance and long history in traditional herbal practices. This page explains how we extract Reishi into a dual extract tincture using organic sugar-cane alcohol, with transparent ABV targets, recorded extraction steps, and traceability from substrate to dropper.
What Makes Our Reishi Tincture Different?
We follow a controlled dual extraction process that combines water decoction and organic alcohol extraction. Solvent volumes, ABV readings, dilution measurements, and extraction ratios are recorded for each batch. Only fruiting bodies are used, and extraction consistency is maintained across production runs.

How We Extract Reishi
Reishi fruiting bodies are dried, milled, and extracted in two stages. The long water decoction extracts water-soluble compounds, while organic alcohol extracts ethanol-soluble constituents. After extraction, both solvent fractions are combined and diluted to a measured ABV.
-
Long water decoction
-
Ethanol extraction
-
Decoction + alcohol fractions combined
-
ABV verified with hydrometer
How to Take Reishi Tincture
Because tinctures are concentrated extracts, a small amount is typically sufficient. Many people add Reishi tincture to cold beverages or take it directly. Adjusting gradually based on personal response is a common practice.
-
Standard serving: 1–2 droppers daily
-
Take once or twice per day
-
Shake before use
-
Avoid hot beverages
Alcohol Content & ABV Transparency
After both solvent fractions are combined, we dilute to a controlled ABV target and verify the percentage using hydrometer readings. This ensures that solvent strength remains consistent between batches rather than relying on estimates.
-
Final ABV targeted around 30 percent
-
Hydrometer-verified dilution
-
Organic sugar-cane alcohol only
-
Water volume comes from decoction
Frequently Asked Questions
Each batch follows a consistent extraction ratio and controlled ABV.
Many people take 1–2 droppers daily, adjusting gradually as needed.
Different compounds dissolve in different solvents. A dual extract combines both fractions into one tincture.
We target a final ABV precisely at 30 percent and verify it using hydrometer readings.
Yes. We cultivate Reishi fruiting bodies and track substrate inputs throughout production.
Yes. Many people stack tinctures. It’s common to adjust based on personal response.
