About

Golden Teacher Burma is a regionally inspired variant of Psilocybe cubensis, blending the reliable spiritual clarity of Golden Teacher with the raw intensity and rapid growth of the original Burma strain. This hybrid or isolation is renowned for its large flushes, swift colonization, and a well-balanced psychedelic experience—ideal for those seeking emotional clarity and vivid visuals without overwhelming intensity.

History

The Burma cubensis strain is said to have originated from a wild specimen gifted to mycologist John Allen by a student in Yangon, Myanmar (Burma). Known for its fast fruiting and bold potency, it became a staple in cultivation. The Golden Teacher Burma variant builds upon this legacy, combining it with Golden Teacher’s spiritual tone and ease of integration.

This version is appreciated for its dependability, energetic visuals, and empathic, heart-centered effects—making it great for therapeutic or meditative use.
