Mazatapec Spore Syringe

Mazatapec Mushroom Spores

Presenting our Mazapatec Spore Syringe, originating from Mazatapec, Mexico, and heralded as the inaugural Psilocybe Cubensis strain introduced to the Western world.

Mazatapec Overview

In the early 1900s, a botanist known as Mr. W. ingested a Psilocybin mushroom as part of scientific inquiry. His subsequent article, published in Science magazine (September 18th, 1914), recounted his experiences, igniting the curiosity of numerous ethno-botanists and anthropologists.

Over the following decades, several expeditions were launched to Mexico to study and gather Psilocybin mushrooms, coinciding with the documentation of velada healing rituals utilizing mushrooms. 

Mazatapec Review

Working with Mazatapec spores is generally considered to be quite manageable. Compared to strains like Golden Teacher, it presents a slightly higher level of difficulty, yet remains notably easier than handling varieties such as Penis Envy or Tidal Wave. It's important to note that outcomes can vary. Regardless of your expertise, few strains offer as gratifying an experience as Mazatapec.
