Claim โ†’Adaptogens

:ryze to 1/7th the caffeine

Mushroom and spice-based morning ritual drink. Built a category-defining brand through founder content, podcast advertising, and a clear anti-coffee narrative. One of DTC's fastest-growing wellness brands.

๐Ÿ’ก

Shane Heath's founder story (quitting coffee, building a ritual) became the brand. The product is almost secondary to the lifestyle identity they sell.
