Transcendence Freeze Dried Mushrooms

Transcendence Freeze Dried Mushrooms Overview

Transcendence is a Psilocybe cubensis that has been freeze-dried instead of air-dried. The pieces are white underneath with a heavy blue-grey speckle over almost every surface, so the whole bag has a frosted, stone-like look to it.

Most of what you get is chunks rather than tidy whole mushrooms: thick sections of cap and stem with a rough, crumbly surface. That is normal for this format. Freeze-dried mushrooms come out light, crisp and airy rather than leathery, and they break apart easily when handled.

Freeze-drying is a gentler way to dry a mushroom. It holds onto more of what is inside, and more of the taste and texture too. Transcendence sits in our magic mushrooms range alongside our regular whole dried mushrooms.

How Strong Is Transcendence?

Treat Transcendence as at least as strong as a regular dried cubensis of the same weight. Freeze-drying keeps more of the mushroom’s strength than air drying does, so a gram goes a little further than you might expect. It sits with our potent magic mushrooms. Strength varies from batch to batch, so start low and take it slow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does it look speckled?

The speckle is bruising. Cubensis turns blue wherever it is touched or pressed, and freeze-drying locks that colour in rather than fading it. On a pale mushroom it shows up as blue-grey flecks and patches. It is not mould and not a sign of age.

Why are they in pieces instead of whole?

Freeze-dried mushrooms are very light and brittle, so they break up during packing and shipping more than air-dried ones do. Pieces and whole mushrooms weigh the same and work the same. Nothing is lost.

Do freeze-dried mushrooms need to be rehydrated?

No. Eat them as they are, grind them, or make them into tea, the same as regular dried mushrooms. They are lighter and crunchier than air-dried, so the same weight looks like more in the bag.

How long do freeze-dried mushrooms keep?

Years, kept sealed, cool, dark and dry. Freeze-dried mushrooms hold their strength longer than air-dried ones. An airtight jar in a cupboard is all they need. You can buy magic mushrooms online in Canada in both formats from MyHigh.
