What are magic truffles? A guide to the legal psychedelic fungi

Magic truffles: is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it magic mushroom? The answer to all three is no! Magic truffles are a unique naturally occurring psychedelic substance that has been gaining popularity in recent years. I am going to go over what they are, their legal status, effects, and how the dosage works. My motive is to teach you the basics of these magical spores and what they have to offer you!

What are magic truffles?

Essentially, they are dense bunches of mycelium that contain psilocybin. To put it very simply, they are the underdeveloped magic mushroom that many of you likely know and love. Magic truffles can be described as a magic mushroom that has yet to make its grand appearance above Earths surface. These hardy little magical babies are harvested underground. Technically speaking, a truffle is not considered a mushroom. I will leave that to the professional mycologists to explain that to you as that is where it becomes complicated!

The amount of psilocybin found in magic truffles is based entirely on the moisture/nutrition contents of the soil, time of harvest, and general conditions. Some are strong while others are weaker, just like magic mushrooms and other naturally occurring psychedelics. When eaten raw, they leave a sour and tart taste in your mouth for a short period of time. Unlike the ungodly taste you experience from magic mushrooms, truffles are nothing in comparison!

Just like magic mushrooms, truffles can be made into a tea. With caution of course as you don’t want your psilocybin to break down with the heat! Personally, I have found that the best way to eat magic truffles is by enjoying them alongside an extra fudgy dark chocolate brownie. The darker and richer the chocolate, the more it masks the taste! However, I have a handful of friends that are totally unbothered by the taste of truffles and eat them as they come without the need of masking any flavour.

So, they are similar to magic mushrooms but also completely different, right? Kind of confusing, but the most important thing to note is they share the exact same psychoactive compound with magic mushrooms; psilocybin. I just know exactly what you are dying to know what their legal status is. Let’s look at that next.

Are magic truffles legal?The history of magic truffles

The short answer is, yes, they are legal-but how? Sadly (for non-EU residents) these magical spores are only legal in Europe. If you do live in Europe, you will be happy to hear that they are totally legal for sale, purchase, possession and consumption! Yes, you read that correctly! Legal all around, baby!

Up until not that long ago, magic mushrooms were 100% legal in the Netherlands. On a sad April day in 2007, the Netherlands banned magic mushrooms claiming they were a ‘dangerous threat’ to the country. This left mushroom growers that had been supporting themselves for years with nothing to fall back on. Thinking quickly and cleverly, they realised that some species of magic truffles contain psilocybin. They also realised that magic truffles were not technically classified as mushrooms and boom– the magic truffle industry was birthed!

This is when the rest of the world started to talk about the Netherlands and their new industry. When magic mushrooms were legal, the business wasn’t exactly booming as many individuals, including tourists, didn’t know about their legality. When the magic truffle became the new magic mushroom in the Netherlands, it gained popularity very quickly, creating a lot of happy truffle growers! Hallelujah!

In recent dates, it has come to the attention of Dutch growers and sellers that it is actually legal to sell these truffles across the whole of the EU! By law, all truffles are considered a ‘luxury food’. This has only helped the industry expand, allowing individuals all over the EU to exercise their legal rights to utilizing natures sacred medicine!

There are countless truffle vendors. My go-to truffle vendor is Sacred Spores. Even if you are not looking to purchase, they have lots of helpful information on the topic available on their site! Since they are my favourite vendor, I will be using them as an example as to how everything works.

Magic truffle effects

As I said above, magic truffles have the same psychoactive compound as magic mushrooms do; psilocybin. This means that you will receive the exact same effects from truffles as you would mushrooms. For those who have not yet tried magic mushrooms or truffles, here are some effects you can expect to experience from a full dose:

  • Intense visuals
  • Feelings of bliss and ecstasy
  • Unbelievable sense of oneness and connection to everything
  • Spiritual and other out of body experiences
  • Sensory enhancements
  • Sensory confusion (eg, smelling a colour or tasting a sound)
  • Reality manipulation
  • Greater connection to the mind, body and soul
  • Overflowing love and empathy
  • Increased creativity
  • Connection to your inner child

These experiences can be extremely intense and healing, to say the least. You may go on an unbelievably mind-blowing spiritual journey where your sense of self and identity completely dissolves, eg. ego death… Or, perhaps you will enjoy a delightful 4-8 hour trip where you can’t stop hysterically laughing at a pebble on the ground. Either way, every trip is totally unique and impactful in its own way.

Of course, as with all psychedelics, the dreaded ‘bad trip’ is always a risk and possibility. Luckily, there are many ways that you can prevent a bad trip from happening. Although they are never completely preventable and the risk is always present, there are ways you can drastically reduce your chances of having a bad trip.

Anyway, I could go on and on for days about the different phenomenons that occur during a psilocybin trip. Instead, I am going to suggest you go and buy some magic truffles online (if you live in the EU) and experience the magic for yourself!

Magic truffle dosage

The dosage for magic truffles is always different. If you have done magic mushrooms a handful of times or more, you know that the strength varies significantly. 2 grams of one magic mushroom batch can feel 10x stronger than 5 grams of a different batch.

I know many of you psychonauts out there enjoy this particular aspect of magic mushrooms and embrace the gamble as a vital part of the experience. However, many psilocybin lovers do not enjoy this part of the experience and would rather have a rough idea of what they are getting themselves into. If you are someone who likes to know the psilocybin contents, then magic truffles may be better for you!

Truffle growers typically grow the same species with the exact same conditions each time, making a rather accurate and consistent psilocybin quantity in each batch. This means that you can optimize your trip!

Sacred Spores (the truffle vendor mentioned above) even has a scoring system for each of their species for different effects using 5-star ratings. For example, one species may score 2 stars on visuals and 5 stars on creativity, while another species has the opposite scoring. This makes it extremely easy to find the perfect magic truffles for you and what you are hoping to get out of your trip!

Not to mention, there is also recommended dosages for each truffle. Eg, Sacred Spores gives their suggestion for a light, medium, or high dose for all of their truffles! This helps a lot if you are new to the world of magic truffles.

They also offer microdosing kits, so you can legally microdose psilocybin in Europe! What a time to be alive!

Closing:

I hope this mini-guide to magic truffles has helped you gain a better understanding of this rare psychedelic. Amazingly, there are legal ways (well, in Europe, that is) to enjoy the healing effects of psilocybin. Whether you are embarking on a journey with a full dose or microdose, mushroom or truffle, I wish you a happy trip!
