What is BalanceRitual™?
Our signature complex of functional mushrooms, carefully selected for their traditional roles in supporting clarity, balance and overall wellbeing.
The Mushrooms
Functional mushrooms have been used for centuries across traditional wellness practices, valued for their role in supporting balance, vitality and mental clarity. Today, modern research continues to explore the bioactive compounds within these mushrooms — including polysaccharides and beta-glucans — that underpin their functional properties. At MAD, we combine this growing scientific understanding with careful sourcing and extraction, selecting specific mushrooms for their complementary roles and blending them thoughtfully into coffee, so functional support fits naturally into the ritual you already trust.
Lions Mane | 10:1, 30% Polysaccharides
Used for centuries across East Asia, Lion’s Mane has long been valued for supporting mental clarity and a balanced state of focus. Modern research explores its role in supporting nerve growth factor (NGF) pathways, an area of growing interest in cognitive science. Our Lion’s Mane extract maintains the naturally occurring compounds associated with this traditional use.
Cordyceps | 4:1, 40% Polysaccharides
Cordyceps has been used in traditional wellness practices to support stamina and natural energy. Contemporary studies examine its potential to influence ATP production and oxygen utilisation, aligning with its long-recognised role in supporting physical vitality.
Reishi | 15:1, 30% Polysaccharides
Known historically as the “Mushroom of Immortality,” Reishi has been used for centuries to promote balance and a grounded sense of wellbeing. Scientific exploration continues to investigate its naturally occurring triterpenes and polysaccharides, which are of interest for their potential adaptogenic effects.
Chaga | 10:1, 30% Polysaccharides
Chaga has a long history in traditional Northern and Eastern European practices, often brewed as a grounding, restorative tea. Research into its naturally occurring polyphenols and beta-glucans aligns with its traditional role as a source of natural antioxidant support.
Tremella | 10:1, 30% Polysaccharides
Historically used in Chinese beauty and wellness traditions, Tremella is known for supporting skin hydration and a dewy, vibrant complexion. Modern interest focuses on its naturally occurring polysaccharides, which support moisture retention and antioxidant behaviour.
Crafted through Science.
The effectiveness of any mushroom extract depends on two things: the part of the mushroom you use, and how you extract it. We follow methods rooted in traditional practice and supported by modern extraction science to ensure each mushroom maintains its natural profile, without fillers, grain, or additives.
Designed to make a difference.
Functional mushrooms only matter if they work with the ritual you already love. That’s why BalanceRitual™ is crafted to integrate cleanly into specialty-grade coffee, preserving flavour, maintaining clarity and dissolving without grit or bitterness. No extra steps. No powders. No compromises.
Just your favourite brew, elevated through thoughtful formulation.
