Mu-Err (Auricularia polytricha, Cloud Ear) 

The mu-err mushroom may be familiar to connoisseurs of Chinese cooking, as this "Chinese morel" is called for in many Chinese dishes. Although this mushroom does not have a particularly distinctive taste, it is highly regarded for its texture. In the European context, records reveal that variants of this mushroom have been used in herbal medicine since medieval times.

Auricularia polytricha can be found all over the world on deciduous trees, especially elder trees. As translated from Chinese, other names for this mushroom include cloud ear and hairy wood ear due to its fuzzy exterior. Auricularia polytricha is very closely related to Auricularia auricula-judae, and in both Europe and Asia they are often interchangeable. The latter, translated from Latin, is also known as "Judas's ear"; a name that stems from the myth that this mushroom was growing on the side of the tree from which Judas hanged himself.

Our vital mushrooms come from the most renowned Chinese region for vital mushrooms in Gutian County, Fujian (600-700m.a.s.l.). The cultivation of vital mushrooms is an ancient tradition here and produces mushrooms of unprecedented quality. The special soils, the sophisticated substrates and the climatic conditions in the untouched nature of this region protected by the densely forested mountains ensure a high concentration of the valuable mushroom ingredients. Our natural mushrooms come from purely organic cultivation from our EU organic certified partner farm. The mushrooms thrive naturally and are harvested by hand at the maximum of their ingredient content between July and October.

To further concentrate the beta-glucans contained in the mushrooms, the gently dried and finely ground fruiting bodies and stems of the mushrooms are processed into an extract. The extraction is carried out according to traditional methods using only water. Water extracts have been part of Chinese tradition and Western herbalism for centuries and have always been used to make plant extracts. They are among the gentlest extraction methods and result in a highly pure extract, free from any toxic residues of chemical solvents (such as acetone, N-hexane, methanol).
