Reverie Mushroom Gummies

Reverie leans strongly euphoric and emotionally expansive rather than sedating. Half a gram a piece, ten to a pack, with fruit forward flavours that cover the earthiness.

What to expect

People describe Reverie pulling them further into music, conversation and creativity, then settling into a more introspective headspace as the experience unfolds. It is the sociable end of the range rather than the contemplative one, at least to begin with.

What you get

• 10 gummies at 0.5g each
• 5 grams in total
• Fruit forward flavours
• Consistent dosing piece to piece

Half a gram is a full dose

At 0.5g per piece a single gummy is a complete experience for most people. Halving one is the sensible way in if you have not used this strength before.

Why an edible instead of raw material

Two practical reasons. The taste of dried mushroom is genuinely unpleasant for most people and is the main thing that puts them off, and many find an extracted format sits more comfortably than chewing through plant material. The dosing is also consistent piece to piece, so you are not weighing anything out.

Onset and timing

Allow a full 45 to 90 minutes before you consider taking more. Topping up because the first dose seems slow is the single most common way people end up further out than they intended. The experience typically runs four to six hours from onset, with a long gentle tail after that.

Set and setting

Where you are and what frame of mind you are in shape the experience more than the exact figure on the scales does. Somewhere familiar and comfortable, a clear day with nothing you need to be sharp for, and ideally someone sober around the first few times. Plan the landing as well as the take off.

Who should avoid this

Anyone with a personal or family history of psychosis or bipolar disorder, anyone pregnant or breastfeeding, and anyone taking SSRIs, MAOIs, lithium or tramadol should not take psilocybin without speaking to a doctor first. If you are unsure how something you take interacts, ask before rather than after.

Storage

Keep sealed, cool, dry and out of direct light. Psilocybin degrades with heat, light and moisture. Store where children and pets cannot reach, which matters especially for anything that looks like confectionery.
