FIND YOUR PERFECT MUSHROOM COFFEE BELND
What Is Mushroom Coffee, Anyway?
Mushroom coffee sounds like something out of a sci-fi café, but it’s simpler—and tastier—than you think. “I was skeptical too,” Tara admits, laughing about how Milo once sniffed her coffee like it was an alien invasion.
Unlike regular coffee, which relies on beans for its kick, mushroom coffee blends premium coffee with extracts from functional mushrooms like Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, Reishi, and Chaga. Don’t panic—no, it doesn’t taste like a forest floor!
These 100% fruiting body extracts, made from the fruiting bodies of mushrooms, add subtle depth that makes your coffee smoother, richer, and downright delightful. Think of it like adding a pinch of magic to your brew—it enhances the flavor without stealing the show.
At Urban Calm, we pair these extracts with Premium Roast Colombian beans, sourced from women-led farms from the Huila region in Colombia..
The result?
A cup that’s bold yet balanced, with no jitters or bitter aftertaste. Our blends are Ethically Sourced, supporting sustainable farming and women’s empowerment, and Tested for Toxins to ensure every sip is pure.
Plus, they’re Vegan Friendly, so everyone’s invited to the coffee party. Whether you’re a coffee snob or a wellness newbie,
Urban Calm’s mushroom coffee is crafted to make your taste buds dance and your mornings sing.

Meet the Blends: Your Flavor Adventure Awaits

Here’s the lineup, packed with sensory goodness that’ll make you want to brew right now.
• Onward Mushroom Coffee:
The Vibrant, Feel-Good Zest
Onward is your morning cheerleader, bursting with bright, citrusy notes that feel like sunshine in a cup. Our light-roasted Colombian beans deliver a crisp, tangy flavor, like biting into a juicy orange.
The mushroom extracts—Cordyceps and Chaga—add a nutty warmth that smooths out the acidity, creating a lively, feel-good sip. “It’s the coffee I drink when I need a spark,” Tara says, probably tossing a toy for Tucker.
Perfect for early workouts or crushing to-do lists, Onward’s vibrant vibe is your go-to for starting the day with optimism.

• Centered Mushroom Coffee:
The Smooth, Soulful Zen
Centered is your cozy escape, like a warm hug from a dear friend. Our medium-roasted Colombian beans bring soft, caramel-like notes with a toasty glow, paired with Reishi and Chaga extracts that add an earthy richness.
“This is my chill-out brew,” Tara shares, imagining Milo snoozing in a sunbeam. Brew a cup and soak in the soulful calm that eases you into a serene flow, ideal for quiet mornings or mid-day resets when you need balance.

• Dreamer Mushroom Coffee: The Dreamy, Tranquil Bliss
Dreamer is your soulful retreat, with deep, velvety richness that feels like a moment of pure peace.
Our dark-roasted Colombian beans deliver bold, chocolatey notes with a creamy finish, enhanced by Lion’s Mane and Reishi extracts that add a woody depth.
“I sip this when I’m journaling,” Tara says, likely with Milo curled up nearby. Perfect for reflective afternoons or evening unwinds, Dreamer’s tranquil vibe is your ticket to blissful calm.


• Lioness Mushroom Coffee: The Fierce, Fearless Power
Lioness is your bold, take-charge brew, roaring with silky intensity. Our espresso-roasted Colombian beans bring robust flavor with hints of dark caramel and spice, amped up by Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps extracts that add an umami kick.
“This is my power-up coffee,” Tara grins, probably dodging Tucker’s playful pounce. Made for big meetings or intense workouts, Lioness’s fierce spark unleashes your inner strength.

Tara’s Story: From Chaos to Calm
Urban Calm wouldn’t exist without Tara Duncan’s bold vision. In 2022, she ditched her corporate job, craving a coffee that could calm the urban storm.
“Milo and Tucker were my co-pilots,” she laughs, recalling late nights planning with her dogs snoozing nearby. Inspired by women-led farms in Colombia, Tara sourced beans that empower communities.
Adding mushroom extracts was her stroke of genius, creating blends that vibe with every mood. “It’s coffee with a soul,” she says, probably tossing a treat to Milo.
Each sip supports women farmers and sustainable practices, making Urban Calm a brew you can feel good about.
