Thrilled shoppers are swearing by an arabica coffee that blends mushrooms and vitamins to ‘enhance the mind and body’. DIRTEA aims to give all the energy of coffee without the jitters and energy crash.
Inside the DIRTEA Mushroom Coffee blend is 100% arabica beans alongside 1,000mg of Lion’s Mane and B vitamins (B6, B12, Pantothenic Acid, and Folic Acid). The brand says these additions work together to support mental clarity, energy and even the nervous system.
Dr Tara Swart is a neuroscientist, medical doctor, executive advisor and Senior Lecturer at MIT Sloan as well as the brand’s Chief Science Officer. Talking about the brand, she said: “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.” Typically £38 a pouch, DIRTEA Mushroom Coffee drops to £26 with a subscription that also includes a free mug and storage jar.

Adaptogenic coffee has become more popular in recent years, with other brands like London Nootropics, starting from £15, and Javasu, £36, building up a fanbase. Here at the Mirror, we’ve even enjoyed it in the past, which you can read about here.
Coffee is one of the most widely consumed sources of caffeine, known for its ability to enhance alertness, focus, and mental performance. However, normal traditional coffee can sometimes lead to jitters and energy crashes.
DIRTEA says that when you mix caffeine with Lion’s Mane extract and adaptogens, people get smooth, sustained energy without the crashes. The mushroom coffee also has up to 80% less caffeine than an average cup.
This coffee blends the rich, smooth flavour of premium 100% arabica beans with Lion’s Mane mushroom extract and an organic B vitamin complex to enhance the mind and body.
The website boasts an impressive more than 17,000 five-star reviews. One shopper said: “Love the flavour of this coffee and the fact that it offers healthy benefits is an added bonus.”
A second wrote: “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.
“I’m sharp, aware on this coffee with loads of energy, without the cons. Highly recommend.” A third wrote: “I love it. I can have as many cups in a day as I like and don’t get the jitters or a crash.”
It’s worth noting some buyers have struggled with the taste, with one saying: “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.”
However another person wrote: “As a coffee addict, this is lovely. Smooth, and no longer hitting a wall when the caffeine wears off. Mentally I feel better.”
