The DIRTEA Mushroom Coffee blend has been hailed for its energy-giving properties, without the jitters associated with caffeine, all thanks to its Lion’s Mane extract and adaptogens
Coffee drinkers are getting excited over an innovative Arabica coffee that’s designed to “enhance the mind and body” with the power of functional mushrooms. DIRTEA is gaining acclaim for offering the classic buzz of coffee without the undesirable jitters and subsequent slump in energy.
At the heart of DIRTEA Mushroom Coffee is a blend containing 100% Arabica beans infused with 1,000mg of Lion’s Mane mushroom and a host of B vitamins, such as B6, B12, Pantothenic Acid, and Folic Acid. It’s believed that these ingredients collectively bolster mental sharpness, vitality, and even the nervous system.
Lending her expertise as both a neuroscientist and medical doctor, not to mention holding positions as an executive advisor and Senior Lecturer at MIT Sloan, Dr Tara Swart, who also serves as the brand’s Chief Science Officer, commented on DIRTEA saying: “We stand for health, education and community. I have used adaptogenic mushrooms for many years and this is the brand I love on so many levels.”

DIRTEA’s Mushroom Coffee contains Lion’s Mane and B vitamins (B5, B6, Folate and B12) which work together to support mental clarity, nervous system health, and energy metabolism, delivering a revitalising experience that promotes overall well-being
The trend of adaptogenic coffee is on the rise, evidenced by brands like London Nootropics and Javasu offering their own takes on the concept, priced from £15 and £36 respectively, and amassing dedicated followers along the way. Impressions about these new brews can also be found at the Mirror, where we too have shared our experience.
While coffee is seen as a source of caffeine to sharpen concentration and enhance focus, most conventional brands has an oft-reported side effect profile, which includes heightened anxiety and a steep decline in energy following consumption.
DIRTEA is making waves with their coffee blend that combines caffeine, Lion’s Mane extract, and adaptogens, promising a smooth energy kick without the usual crash. The unique mushroom coffee is also noted for having up to 80% less caffeine than your average brew.
With more than 17,000 five-star reviews on their site, customers are sharing their love for the product. One satisfied customer commented: “Love the flavour of this coffee, and the fact that it offers healthy benefits is an added bonus.”
Another user shared: “This is the best coffee ever, if I happen to run out of my Dirtea Coffee and have an instant shop bought coffee, the jitters I get. You notice a considerable difference.” Expressing their enthusiasm, another customer said: “I’m sharp, aware on this coffee with loads of energy, without the cons. Highly recommend.”
Meanwhile, “I love it. I can have as many cups in a day as I like and don’t get the jitters or a crash.”
However, not all users are completely sold on the taste. One person revealed their initial impression: “The taste was something to get use to. I have now mixed it with a spoonful of regular coffee to help drink it. But I think it had helped me focus and increased my energy.”
In contrast, for some devoted coffee lovers, DIRTEA’s creation has been a game-changer: “As a coffee addict, this is lovely. Smooth, and no longer hitting a wall when the caffeine wears off. Mentally I feel better.”
