Discover the Journey of Chaga: From Harvesting to Extract

video of chaga hunting in irkutsk

The video below was created by one of our Chinese customers during his visit to our company. It was broadcast on CCV7, one of the most popular television channels in China. Currently, the video is available only in Chinese, but here is a brief summary of what unfolds.

A businessman from Beijing sends his assistant to Irkutsk, Russia, to acquire authentic Siberian chaga. Upon arrival, the assistant is greeted by Pavel, the director of our company (the bearded man in the grey jacket), and they head to a nearby village where they meet Sasha, an experienced forest guide. After introductions, the group embarks on a search for chaga in the wild.

At 12:40, you’ll witness how chaga is harvested from a tree. The chaga hunter skillfully climbs the tree to cut off the mushroom.

During the journey, there’s an unexpected encounter with a bear, but Sasha expertly guides the group to safety. Later in the video, at 22:00 and 24:00, you'll get a glimpse of Baikal Herbs Ltd’s facilities, where workers carefully sort through freshly harvested chaga.

Throughout the video, you'll also enjoy stunning views of the Baikal landscape and quaint Siberian villages, showcasing the natural beauty of the region.
