The newest reishi tincture from Dragon herbs. Organically Grown Purple Reishi mushrooms grow in the Chang Bai Mountains, north of North Korea in Jilin province. They are extremely rare. They are beautiful specimens. They are not entirely purple. They have both red and purple elements. In fact they look like red Reishi at first glance, but upon examination they have a significant purple coloration in the heart of the mushroom cap. These are revered in much the same way as wild Chang Bai Mountain Ginseng. Many people believe that Reishi originated in the Chang Bai Mountains and that Purple Wild Reishi is the great ancestor of all Reishi. It is a Purple Wild Reishi upon which the White Snake legend was based. It is the only Reishi that is a Jing tonic, and is a Shen stabilizer, actually considered to be the ultimate Shen tonic.
