# Shyne Coffee Mushroom Coffee — review data

## Verdict
Shyne mushroom coffee is the single-mushroom pick: 500 mg of lion's mane (or chaga, or turkey tail) per cup in a sweet, creamy Canadian instant with 70 mg caffeine, a clearer dose than any multi-mushroom blend. But the extract is part mycelium, there is no published lab testing, and the one-time price is CAD $1.73 a cup.
Overall score: 3.3/5 (taste 4, ingredients 3, transparency 4, value 3, lab testing 2.5, dosage 3)

## Pros
- One mushroom per SKU with a stated 500 mg dose — you know exactly what you are getting, which no multi-blend on this page offers
- Organic Papua New Guinea instant with the creamer and sweetener already in; reviewers consistently call it the easiest-drinking mushroom coffee

## Cons
- The lion's mane is dual-extracted from mycelium and fruiting bodies, not fruiting body alone
- CAD $52 one-time for 30 cups is $1.73 a cup; the CAD $39/month subscription is the price the brand actually wants you to pay
- Contains 2 g maple sugar and a maltodextrin-based oat/coconut creamer per cup; no published lab testing

## Skip it if
- You want a black, unsweetened coffee
- You want fruiting-body-only extract

## FAQ
Q: How much lion's mane is in Shyne Coffee?
A: 500 mg of organic lion's mane extract per 6 g serving, stated on the label. Shyne describes it as dual-extracted with water and fermentation from both mycelium and fruiting bodies. That is half the lowest dose used in the human cognition trials, and because it is the only mushroom in the cup, it is a real 500 mg rather than a share of a blend.

Q: How much caffeine is in Shyne mushroom coffee?
A: Shyne says each cup has less caffeine than a standard drip coffee and points to a caffeine calculator on its site; the figures there put a 6 g serving at roughly 65–75 mg. We list 70 mg. The coffee is organic freeze-dried instant from Papua New Guinea, so the caffeine is from real coffee rather than added.

Q: How much does Shyne Coffee cost per cup?
A: The Lion's Mane Coffee is CAD $52 for 30 cups as a one-time purchase, or about CAD $1.73 per cup. On subscription it is CAD $29 for the first month and CAD $39 after, which is CAD $1.30 per cup and the price the brand advertises as from 96 cents a cup on its three-blend starter pack.

Q: Is Shyne Coffee sweetened?
A: Yes. Each cup contains about 2 g of maple sugar plus an organic dairy-free creamer made from oat milk, coconut milk powder and maltodextrin, so it makes a light, sweet latte-style drink from water alone. If you prefer black coffee or need to avoid sugar and maltodextrin, this is not the right format.
