I live in Russia and must say that the current situation with chaga supply doesn't look very promising. Since the collective West has imposed economic sanctions, Russian exporters cannot accept payments in USD anymore. Additionally, for the time being, no Russian Airlines (Aeroflot etc) are allowed into many Western countries. Also, UPS has ceased its delivery operations from Russia.
This of course has created problems for some exporters of Russian chaga. Traders and middlemen are the ones who suffer the most, whereas big manufacturers are still up and running. For example, Baikal Herbs Ltd (www.en.biochaga.ru) is still operating without any changes except one: now they ship chaga orders through DHL instead of UPS. And although DHL is more expensive, the Baikal Herbs keep the price for their customers unchanged. Even the payment method has been retained - they still accept USD payments through PayPal.
Nevertheless, the majority of Russian chaga exporters have stopped supplying their chaga for export. And this has become a problem for many foreign importers who urgently have to be looking for substitute of Russian chaga. However it is easier said than done. There is no other country that can supply chaga extract made from wildgrown chaga mushroom. Chinese chaga is so much poor in quality that I cannot even call it a chaga. But it seems like there is not so much options left.
So, in order to satisfy consumers many western chaga merchants do not have any other choice rather than to start selling chinese chaga. I assume that the change in quality of chaga extract will make many people angry since chaga is supposed to bring health benefits. And as you may know, chaga from china has none of them.
Therefore, yes, I am trying to plug the chaga extract of premium quality made by Baikal Herbs Ltd. The company is still able to supply and the quality is the best available on the market today. This of course is my own subjective opinion, but you will not find any better offer considering the price / quality/reliability ratio. Especially taking into account the present troubling times in Russia.
