The Science

Cacao comes from the Theobroma cacao plant and is naturally rich in theobromine - a compound similar to caffeine but with gentler, longer-lasting effects. Unlike caffeine, theobromine provides a steady release of energy without overstimulation, supporting sustained focus and mental clarity while promoting a calm and uplifting mood.

Cacao is also a natural source of magnesium, a key mineral involved in relaxation, muscle function, and stress regulation. This makes cacao an excellent choice for unwinding while still maintaining alertness and focus.

We blend our cacao with Lion’s Mane, Tremella, and Reishi to amplify its benefits:

  • Lion’s Mane enhances cognitive function and mental clarity, making cacao a brain-boosting ritual. Contains >40% beta glucans.
  • Tremella hydrates and supports skin health with its natural polysaccharides, complementing cacao’s antioxidant properties.
  • Reishi is revered as the “mushroom of immortality” for its adaptogenic properties, helping to balance and promote relaxation.

Together, these ingredients create a nourishing blend designed to support focus, resilience, and overall well-being - perfect for any time of day.

How to Use

  1. Add a 6g scoop of DIRTEA Cacao to a cup
  2. Pour in 100ml of hot water and stir well
  3. Steam 150ml milk of your choice
  4. Pour the steamed milk into your cup, mix, and enjoy!

The DIRTEA Standard

Tell me more about DIRTEA Cacao

Our customers love DIRTEA Cacao for its rich, chocolatey taste and calming, focus-enhancing properties. Despite its delicious flavour, it's healthy and clean and comes with the additional benefits of Lion's Mane, Tremella and Reishi together with MCT and Moringa.

How does DIRTEA Cacao promote calmness and better sleep?

DIRTEA Cacao releases anandamide, also known as the bliss molecule. Anandamide is a neurotransmitter that binds to cannabinoid receptors in the brain and body, stimulating a sense of happiness and mental wellness. This effect is enhanced by the added Lion's Mane and Reishi. Cacao is also a good source of magnesium, an essential mineral that regulates neurotransmitters such as serotonin and can support a sense of calmness. Together with raw cacao, these ingredients promote a sense of calm and relaxation, making it ideal for evening consumption to support better sleep.

What makes DIRTEA Cacao a healthier hot chocolate?

DIRTEA Cacao is made from raw cacao, providing a deep, rich flavour without the added sugars and artificial ingredients found in many traditional hot chocolates. The inclusion of functional mushrooms like Lion's Mane, Tremella, and Reishi provides additional health benefits for the mind and body.

How does it support immunity?

Cacao is also rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids and polyphenols, which can assist a healthy immune response. (1) The added Reishi and the B6 from the B Vitamin complex, contribute to the normal function of the immune system

What does DIRTEA Cacao taste like?

DIRTEA Cacao balances subtly sweet tones with a light bitterness from the raw cacao.

What are DIRTEA Super Blends?

Our Super Blends have been formulated to offer you a powerful mixture of DIRTEA Mushrooms in your favourite drinks so that you can easily enjoy a range of benefits in the flavours you love. Our mushrooms work synergistically together so combining them maximises their benefits. 

What are functional mushrooms?

Functional mushrooms are types of fungi that are known for their health benefits beyond their nutritional compositions. The exact benefits differ depending on the mushroom. We use 3 different functional mushrooms within our Super Blends - Lion's Mane, Reishi and Tremella.

Do the DIRTEA Super Blends contain vitamins?

Yes! We've been working hard on our mission to continue providing the best products that enhance and fuel our bodies naturally. After gathering research, we have decided to make these changes to enhance the flavour and provide the most impact from DIRTEA Mushrooms and to your health. 

Do the vitamins alter the flavour of the mushrooms?

No, we’ve tested several iterations to achieve the exact same taste as our original recipe, with the added benefit of vitamins. 

Why did you choose the Vitamin B complex? What does it do?

We use an Organic Vitamin B complex, which contains 8 key B Vitamins all with incredible benefits. B Vitamins support the functioning of our immune system, support normal brain function, and maintain healthy skin and nails, to name just a few! We have added 30% of the recommended daily intake, so each of our Super Blends are high in vitamins with every serving. 

Why is Lion’s Mane the only mushroom in DIRTEA Coffee?

We constantly want to improve the products we offer to our customers.  We’ve combined our two most popular ingredients into one recipe, creating a focus coffee. The strong partnership of Lion’s Mane and Coffee together provides a boosted sense of clarity, enhanced focus and a calm energy. We’ve combined them so that you get all the benefits enhanced in one great drink.

What do the Super Blends taste like?

DIRTEA Chai is made with 6 Indian spices which balance together warm, aromatic flavours with sweet notes of cinnamon. Our DIRTEA Coffee is made from premium 100% Arabica beans and Lion’s Mane creating a rich, nutty flavour. Our Cacao is made with raw cacao for a deep, rich flavoured healthy hot chocolate, and our Matcha is made with 100% ceremonial-grade Japanese Matcha for a balanced, smooth velvety flavour. 

When is the best time to take DIRTEA Super Blends?

There are no firm rules around when to drink DIRTEA. Our DIRTEA Coffee and Matcha both contain caffeine so may be better suited for during the day, whilst Chai and Cacao support calm energy for both day and evening. 

What is a good Super Blends routine?

DIRTEA Coffee kick starts your morning with Lion’s Mane to strengthen your focus and boost your energy.

DIRTEA Matcha either in the morning or during the day for long-lasting energy.

DIRTEA Cacao at night to calm the nervous system and nourish our mind before a restful sleep. 

How much mushroom is in each serving of each Super Blend?

Per serving, you’ll get 1,000mg of Mushrooms in DIRTEA Coffee, and 2,500mg in DIRTEA Matcha and Cacao. 

What is the serving size?

We suggest a serving size of 2.5g for DIRTEA Coffee, and 6g for DIRTEA Matcha and Cacao. 

How does the strength of your Coffee compare to other coffees?

Our DIRTEA Coffee has 1.4g of Coffee per serving. Our blend purposefully has 80% less caffeine than regular coffee to provide a milder alternative to coffee all while retaining the same great taste with added mushroom benefits. 

Are DIRTEA Super Blends vegan?

Yes, all our Super Blends are 100% vegan. 

Is there any sugar in DIRTEA Super Blends?

Our Matcha has 0.7mg of Coconut sugar per serving which provides a smoothness to the blend and is a natural, plant-based sweetener that keeps your energy levels up without the spikes. 

Are DIRTEA Super Blends gluten-free?

Our Super Blends are free from gluten however, they are packed in the same premises as products that handle nuts, seeds, cereals, and soya products containing gluten which may pose a risk of cross-contamination.

How many cups of Super Blends can I have a day?

Our recommended daily serving size is 2.5g of Coffee and 6g of Cacao and Matcha. Each person is different and you may like to adjust your serving to what best suits you. 

Can I combine DIRTEA Super Blends?

Yes, you can combine different DIRTEA Super Blends, either in one cup or throughout the day.

Can I have Super Blends if I am pregnant?

Please consult your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a medical condition or are taking medication.

Can I take them with other supplements?

Please consult your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a medical condition or are taking any medication.

How should I store my Super Blends?

It's best to store your Super Blends at room temperature and away from direct sunlight. Avoid getting any moisture into the tin and always use a clean, dry spoon. 

How and where are they made?

DIRTEA operates out of London and our products are all manufactured in the UK and are then distributed from our centre in Northampton. Our mushrooms are sourced from the best mushroom forest farms on the planet from China and Siberia.

Do you have any samples?

We don’t offer samples at the moment but we hope to offer them in future. 

Can I take DIRTEA Super Blends with other DIRTEA products?

Our products are complementary when taken together, and we love combining different DIRTEA products for their individual benefits. 

Can children have them?

There is plenty of evidence to support the benefits that functional mushrooms can offer children, but it’s worth noting there is no definitive research on the topic. Meanwhile, there is also no indication that they pose any danger to children.

We recommend it not be given to children under 10 years of age. At this early stage, children’s bodily systems are still developing and adapting to their environment.

As a general rule of thumb, it’s always a good idea to consult your child’s paediatrician before introducing any supplements into their diet particularly if they’re on medication. 

Are there any allergens?

While our Super Blends don’t contain any allergens, they are packed in the same premises as products that handle nuts, seeds, cereals, and soya products containing gluten which may pose a risk of cross-contamination. 

Are they organic?

Yes, all our Super Blends are 100% certified organic by the Organic Food Federation.

Can I take them if I take medication?

Please consult your doctor if you have a medical condition or are taking any medication.

Do you offer a decaf Mushroom Coffee?

Not at the moment. If this is something you’d like us to make, please drop us a line to let us know! We’re always looking to keep creating the products you want.
