Well for now.. at Chi Chaga headquarters, In the spring of 2021 Chi Chaga’s harvest team while deep in the woods somewhere in the Northern region of Quebec found not only the largest single piece of Chaga we have ever seen..BUT the biggest one that has been recorded as a world record SIZE! the true “King” Of Medicinal Mushrooms.
This perfectly shaped “Diamond Of The Forest” weights a whopping 78.2 pounds with a 42-inch circumference, and we estimate that its somewhere between 70 to 80 years old, while the the average size of a full-grown mushroom is 15 to 20 inches, weighting 10 to 15 pounds and is 10 to 20 years old.
Because of Chi Chaga’s commitment to ethical harvesting practices, an additional 15 to 20 pounds was left fixed and untouched thus allowing the Chaga to re-grow and not damage the tree.
