Are mushroom coffees actually worth the hype—or are we just paying $40+ for fancy dirt water?
In this episode of Flora Funga Podcast, KK and Karleen put two of the biggest names in functional mushroom drinks head-to-head: RYZE Mushroom Coffee and MUD\WTR Matcha.
We taste-test both, compare caffeine and mushroom content, dig into RYZE's six-mushroom blend versus MUD\WTR's chaga, reishi, lion's mane and cordyceps blend, and talk about the surprisingly important differences between whole mushroom powder, mycelium, fruiting bodies and mushroom extracts. We also get into why ingredient sourcing and third-party testing matter, whether you'd be better off adding mushroom extracts to coffee you already love, and even how you can make mushroom teas and dual extracts at home.
After plenty of questionable smells, earthy sips and brutally honest ratings, RYZE lands around a 6/10 while MUD\WTR Matcha takes the win at roughly 8–8.5/10. We also shout out Everyday Dose, Laird Superfood, Christopher Hobbs' mushroom extraction teachings and Schedule 35 along the way. If you've been staring at mushroom coffee in Target wondering whether it's actually worth your money, this one's for you.
