Our best-in-class adaptogen extracts have good synergies with caffeine to optimise your day

Zen

L-theanine

Our L-theanine is meticulously extracted for purity and high bioavailability. It is valued for its potential to promote relaxation and mental clarity, especially when paired with caffeine.

Studies suggest that L-theanine may help balance out caffeine's stimulating effects by promoting relaxation without drowsiness and potentially helping to mitigate an increased heart rate often associated with caffeine, contributing to a more balanced, calm state of mind. Ongoing research also explores its role on caffeine's effects on sleep quality, as well as its potential role in reducing stress and anxiety.

There are on-hold health claims regarding its potential role in supporting cognitive function, alleviating stress, and maintaining sleep, based on traditional uses and ongoing research.

Zen

KSM-66 Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha, has been used in Ayurvedic practices for thousands of years, valued for its association with balance and overall wellbeing. We use KSM-66 Ashwagandha®, the highest concentration full-spectrum root extract available today, standardized to 5.5% Withanolides. This specific extract has been the subject of 24 clinical studies, exploring its potential applications for supporting mental and physical balance.

There are on-hold health claims related to Ashwagandha, particularly concerning its potential role in helping the body manage stress and promoting general wellbeing. These are based on traditional uses and ongoing research.

Adaptogenic coffee vs Regular Coffee

Caffeine is a nootropic, which increases our alertness and our cortisol levels - our stress hormone - which can result in jitters/anxiety.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are adaptogens?

Adaptogens are plants, herbs, and fungi that support our body and mind in adapting to various stressors - physical, mental, emotional, and environmental. They help restore balance and enable us to function at our best 💪

What is adaptogenic coffee?

Our adaptogenic coffee blends premium coffee with best-in-class adaptogen extracts to elevate your daily routine. There are good synergies between adaptogens and caffeine - together, they can help us to enjoy the benefits of coffee whilst minimising side effects such as jitters/anxiety by helping to balance our cortisol (stress hormone). We can also enjoy coffee without a crash as adaptogens can help give us sustained energy in our day.

We use the highest-quality medicinal mushrooms and other adaptogens, each blend is designed for a specific purpose - Flow for mental clarity and focus, Zen for calming energy and Mojo for a natural boost! 🍄✨  

Do your blends contain caffeine?

All of our blends contain 80-110mg of caffeine per serving; this is about the same as one regular cup of coffee - caffeine varies naturally in coffee. We love the synergies between adaptogens and caffeine to help us stay balanced and in flow. Our Zen blend is popular with those sensitive to caffeine with L-theanine and Ashwagandha to promote calming, balanced energy 🧘‍♀️

How do I make the perfect cup?

We recommend using a large mug with 300ml of hot water per sachet. Add a splash of your favourite milk for a creamy coffee, or enjoy it black if you prefer! Some customers enjoy a stronger brew and use less water, or add more milk or water to suit your taste preference - it’s all about finding what works for you! For a delicious iced adaptogenic coffee in summer, pour 200ml of milk over ice, mix a sachet of your favourite blend with a splash of hot water, and pour it over the milk. For a black iced coffee, use 200ml of cold water instead. Enjoy! 💫😍 

Do your blends taste like mushrooms?

Our blends are delicious, and taste like regular coffee. Each sachet contains an effective amount of best-in-class adaptogen extracts, rich in active compounds. If adaptogens are new to your palate, they may add a slight earthiness to our delicious and flavourful blends 💜

How do I use each blend in my daily routine?

We’ve crafted our adaptogenic coffee to be easy to incorporate into your daily routine, with best-in-class clinically studied extracts rich in active compounds. Choose the blend that suits how you feel and what you need in your day ✨ 

🧠 Flow: Boost mental clarity and focus with Lion’s Mane and Rhodiola. Enjoy Flow in the morning to clear brain fog or during work, study, or creative tasks for a productive edge.

🧘‍♀️ Zen: Stay calm and balanced with L-theanine and Ashwagandha. Perfect for those sensitive to caffeine, Zen provides a gentle lift for focused mornings and stress-free days.

🚀 Mojo: Energise naturally with Cordyceps and Siberian Ginseng. Mojo is ideal for a morning lift, workouts, or travel, helping with stamina, endurance, and jet lag recovery.

🍄 Mush Love: Elevate your mornings with Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps & Chaga. Created with Fantastic Fungi, this limited-edition blend supports focus, energy & immunity.

How many servings are recommended per day?

We'd recommend 1-2 adaptogenic coffees per day, depending on how you feel and what you need. For example, you could enjoy a Flow or Mush Love in the morning to help clear brain fog and have a productive start to the day, and then have a Mojo in the early afternoon for a natural boost or a Zen for calming energy.

We're all unique - listen to your body's cues and find what works best for you! Due to the sustained energy from adaptogens, many of our customers reduce their overall caffeine intake to just 1-2 adaptogenic coffees per day 🤗✨

What amounts of adaptogen extracts are used per serving?

Flow contains 250mg of Hifas da Terra Lion’s Mane, with 45% beta-glucan fruiting bodies, and 83mg of a branded Rhodiola extract called RhodioLife® (grown from the Siberian Altai), standardised to 3% Rosavins & 1% Salidroside.

Zen contains 153mg of L-theanine and 110mg of KSM-66 Ashwagandha® (vegan extract), known as the "Gold Standard" extract, standardised to 5% Withanolides.

Mojo contains 305mg of Hifas da Terra Cordyceps, standardised to 5% Cordycepin & 25% beta-glucan fruiting bodies, and 102mg of Siberian Ginseng (with 0.8% Eleutherosides) extract.

Mush Love contains 160mg of Hifas da Terra organic Lion's Mane extract, with a minimum of 45% beta-glucans, 160mg of Hifas da Terra Cordyceps extract, with at least 5% cordycepin and 25% beta-glucans, and 160mg of Hifas da Terra organic Chaga extract, with a minimum of 45% total glucans. 

With adaptogens such as functional mushrooms and other plant extracts, we receive the many health benefits from their active compounds. That’s why we ensure our highly bioavailable extracts are rich in active compounds and source all of our adaptogen ingredients ourselves. The active compounds listed above are for our latest batch, and each batch is unique using best-in-class adaptogen extracts 🍄

Reviews

Great for stimulant takers! (Audhd/adhders)

"I really enjoy not getting the jitters and being Audhd having almost daily stimulants (when I remember to take them mornings) I find I can have this coffee whenever I would like one and it does not give palpitations or interfere with sleep medications."

Stacey P. (5/5)

Love it!

"I’ve been enjoying Zen when I crave a coffee late in the afternoon. It gives me calm focus without the side effects of my continental habit :) It also tastes great!"

Preslava S. (5/5)

Zen vibes all round!

"I love this product it’s a different type of vibe I usually find coffee too much but this just makes it all better and smooth and rich."

Joanne G. (5/5)

Love love love!

"I use full fat barista milk with my Zen and it tastes AMAZING!"

Kelly M. (5/5)

Great Taste

"Zen coffee is 5 stars. The best coffee I have ever had. I have swopped Nescafe Cappuccino for Mushroom. The best change ever. It is just perfect. The taste. The smoothness and just refreshing. I am not suffering anymore. I would tell everyone to swop from high street coffee to London Nootropics. I am now doing a subscription :-)))"

Miss N. (5/5)

Zen for mellowness

"Zen makes a late coffee an indulgence rather than a risk! Where other brands too late in the day can leave you feeling wired, Zen does the exact opposite. No jitters, no wide awake at night, this blend gives you confidence to enjoy a calm coffee at any time of the day or night, when you want to keep your mellow mood or help induce it."

RACHEL H. (5/5)

Zen- I love it!

"I am pleasantly surprised with how well I am getting on with this product. Over the years I have been increasingly becoming more and more sensitive to coffee. I switched over the decaffeinated over a year ago and that honestly didn’t make that much of a difference. I have been trialing these coffee for a couple of weeks now and I love them! I’m not getting any of the unwanted side effects when I drink coffee. I have really grown to love the “Zen” coffee sachets and I have placed an order for more. I am a Physical Therapist working in two busy clinics and I have found it has helped keep my inner platform steady. I am quite prone to being on the more anxious side of things and currently in recovery from a traumatic time which has left me with PTSD. I add this piece of information in because It’s really nice to be able to enjoy a lovely cup of coffee knowing that it is offering me health benefits instead of making me feel awful!"

Molly (5/5)

Love the coffee

"Absolutely love the taste, smell and texture of the coffee. It is the best"

Gisela P. (5/5)

Pretty expensive for what essentially

"Pretty expensive for what essentially tastes like instant coffee. Also overpackaged."

Jerilu B. (3/5)

Lovely Coffee

"A really smooth and comforting coffee. The ashwagandha blend gives a calm, relaxed focus without any jitters. A lovely mindful cup."

Q&A

I’m interested in purchasing this but I have a possible stomach ulcer not confirmed waiting on a test. Will this be ok to take with tummy troubles like gastric? I suffer a lot with indigestion and reflux sometimes heartburn.
Hi, Amanda! Thanks for your message and interest in our adaptogenic coffee 🤗✨ Our blends are designed to give you the benefits of regular coffee whilst minimising negative side effects. Our adaptogenic coffee is low in acidity and our blends are known to be quite smooth ☕️ Many of our customers report our blends being helpful for their stomachs due to their balancing properties, Lion’s mane (in Flow) for example, is known to be incredible for our digestive system. That being said, all our blends contain caffeine (80-110mg), and it’s known to affect the digestive system (positively in lots of cases, however, can be negative for those who have sensitive stomachs already), I’d be conscious of this 💚 Lots of our customers who are sensitive to caffeine or new to adaptogens find half a sachet works better for them, to help them stay balanced throughout their day. Zen, in particular, is our most balancing blend and contains Ashwagandha, known to work on our adrenals and can help balance our cortisol (stress hormone), it helps to reduce inflammation too👌✨ Of course, we're all different and as a brand, with anything health-related, we have to advise you to seek professional advice from your GP or functional medicine doctor to help you find what works best for you 🙏 Hope you can enjoy the balancing impact of our delicious adaptogenic coffee and we're here for you anytime 😊🍄
I'm interested in trying these coffees but I just wondered if any of these are caffeine free? Thanks
Heyy, Jen! Thanks for your questions and interest in our adaptogenic coffee 😊☕️ All of our blends (Flow, Zen & Mojo) contain 80-110mg of caffeine per serving - this is about the same as one regular cup of coffee ☕️ There are good synergies between adaptogens and caffeine, together they help us to enjoy the benefits of caffeine whilst minimising side effects such as jitters/anxiety by helping to balance our cortisol (stress hormone). We can also enjoy coffee without a crash as adaptogens can help give us sustained natural energy 🤗🌿 Overall, Zen is our most balancing blend and is most popular with those sensitive to caffeine 🙏☕✨ Hope this helps and that you enjoy our delicious adaptogenic coffee!!
Hi, I was wondering how big the box is? This is part of somebody's Christmas and I'll need to know what kind of size gift bag I'll need for all of their items. Thank you
Heyyy Alex, thanks for your order and message!! Appreciate you thinking of us for your Christmas gift, our blends make wonderful presents and hope they go down a treat🙏✨💫 Our small boxes are 22x9x3 cm and hope this helps!! Hope you can also enjoy the balancing properties of our adaptogenic coffee blends soon and if you have any more Qs just drop us a line at care@londonnootropics.com🍄💚🍄💚
Will this coffee keep me up at night - how late should i have it? I usually stop caffeine at noon as keeps me awake. thanks
Heyy Dena, thanks for your order and message - excited for you to try our blends!! 🍄🥰✨ They're designed to help give you all the benefits of regular coffee whilst minimising side effects such as jitters, anxiety and a crash. Each is for a specific purpose, depending on how we’re feeling and what we need. Flow is best for mental clarity and focus, Zen is best for balance and for promoting some calming energy, it’s popular with those sensitive to caffeine. Mojo is best for a natural boost, if we’re feeling fatigued or before exercise 💚🙏 All our blends contain 80-110mg of caffeine per serving (including Zen), this is about the same as one regular cup of coffee - caffeine varies naturally in coffee. As caffeine has a half-life of 8 hours, we’d recommend sticking to the same rule that you have when drinking your regular coffee (noon for you!) and enjoying our blends in the morning/early afternoon. Hope this helps and that you find the best time for you to enjoy an adaptogenic coffee🤞🥰🤝 Have a lovely weekend and we're here for you anytime x
I have just bought your trial box and wondered about mixing the powder into yoghurt and then perhaps drinking water after it? I didn’t mind the taste but nor did I like it that much when I used hot water. Does it have to be brewed?
Hi Susan, thank you for trying our blends!☕️💫 We recommend a large mug with 300ml hot water per sachet - and a splash of your fav milk if you like them creamy👌 Some of our customers prefer a stronger taste and use less water. An iced adaptogenic coffee is also delicious😋🧊 We use an effective amount of the highest-quality adaptogen extracts in every sachet, they can make our blends a little earthy if adaptogens are new to your palate🍄✨ If you'd like to try stirring a sachet into your yoghurt, you'll still get the benefits of the bioavailable active compounds in our adaptogenic extracts👌 We have some customers who enjoy adding our blends to smoothies which you may enjoy as well!! Hope this is helpful and feel free to drop us a line at care@londonnootropics.com if you have any more questions🤗
