Ingredient Overview
Tiger milk mushroom is associated with Southeast Asian herbal traditions. Its characteristic underground sclerotium is the raw material traditionally sought for preparations of Lignosus rhinocerus.
The sclerotium forms the centre of this ingredient’s traditional identity. Processing that compact material into an extract makes it more convenient to include in dry botanical preparations. Tiger milk mushroom offers a Southeast Asian fungal ingredient with a different source structure from the fruiting-body mushrooms commonly used in blends.
