Maitake (Grifola frondosa) Double Extracted

At Dancing Willow Herbs, we take pride in our extensive apothecary of single-herb extracts. Each plant is prepared with care, using extraction methods tailored to its unique chemistry and vitality. Depending on the botanical, we employ percolation techniques with precise alcohol and water ratios for optimal bioavailability, or fresh-plant maceration for herbs whose delicate constituents are best captured immediately after harvest. Every tincture is made in small batches to ensure freshness, potency, and a deep connection to the plants themselves.

Our Maitake tincture is made using a double extraction process- with alcohol and with hot water- to capture both the polysaccharides and triterpenes unique to this nourishing mushroom. Maitake, also known as “Hen of the Woods,” has long been revered as a tonic for vitality, balance, and immune system harmony. Traditionally used to support the body’s natural defenses and energy levels, this adaptogenic fungus offers deep nourishment that builds strength over time. Energetically, Maitake embodies grounded resilience—promoting steadiness, balance, and vitality throughout the changing seasons.
