Koh Samui Mushroom

Psilocybe samuiensis aka Thai or Koh Samui is a legendary strain with a historic reputation as a party ‘shroom.

This species originates from the Thai Island of Koh Samui a beautiful and small island to the south of Thailand. These ‘shrooms were typically served by the locals in a smoothie and given to backpackers who proceeded to dance all night at the legendary full moon beach parties.

This strain is on the smaller side. Stems typically thin with blue bruising at the base, caps round and flat with a light yellow/orange/brown colour.

This strain was rarely found outside of Thai and we feel lucky to have it for sale.

Koh Samui Mushrooms | Effects & Potency

Koh Samui is a popular strain of magic mushrooms thanks to its fast-growing, contaminant-resistant mycelium.

The mushrooms fruit quickly and colonize rapidly, resulting in thick, healthy growth. Although they don’t grow very tall, Koh Samui mushrooms are known to proliferate in very dense clusters.

Koh Samui shrooms are commonly used in traditional Thai medicine to treat various ailments, including fatigue, anxiety, and depression and are also said to improve cognitive function and memory.

People report that the high from these mushrooms is formidable but certainly not the strongest available. The psychedelic experience from this shroom can be confusing or disorientating with strong visual hallucinations. The high is also described as being high-energy and euphoric.

Quantitative analysis on this mushroom strain suggests an average psilocybin content of around 0.63%. Total tryptamine levels (psilocybin, psilocin, baeocystin, and other related compounds) average at around 0.7% for this strain.

For reference, we consider the average Psilocybe cubensis mushroom to contain somewhere between 0.5% and 0.9% total tryptamines (dried weight).

The Koh Samui magic mushroom is often many people’s first experience with psychedelic shrooms when vacationing in Thailand. They’re especially popular in the form of magic mushroom shakes during the infamous Full Moon parties.
