About me

My name is Agata. I’m the quietly curious soul behind Forest Blends—part herbal tinkerer, part pragmatic realist, and one hundred percent believer that the smallest daily rituals shape the tone of a life. I grew up in Vilnius, where weekend walks often drifted past the pine fringes of the city into air that smelled of moss and wild berries, and family gatherings always ended with steaming cups of something warm, earthy and comforting. That mix of nature and nurture stayed with me through years spent learning, travelling and tasting the world’s simple pleasures, until it finally asked for its own space: a little factory in Kupiškis where plants, people and purpose could meet.

My philosophy is simple: care, don’t complicate. I trust science to keep us safe and tradition to keep us human. I’d rather do one thing slowly and well than ten things half‑heartedly. I find joy in ordinary pauses—a sunrise stretch, the sound a wooden spoon makes against a tin scoop, the first sip that says “you’ve got this.” I believe products should be honest enough that you can hand them to a friend without explaining the fine print, and that businesses should leave soil, suppliers and customers better than they found them.

So every day I walk the short path from my garden to our workshop, taste the fresh batch, sign the date on each pouch, and send it off hoping it becomes someone else’s gentle moment of focus or calm. If Forest Blends can make one small part of your day feel kinder and more grounded, then this quietly curious soul is exactly where she needs to be.

Rooted in Purpose

At Forest Blends, we make everyday self‑care simple, natural and enjoyable. Our adaptogenic drink mixes fit neatly into the moments you already cherish—whether that’s a slow sunrise cup of cacao or a calm afternoon pause.

We start with carefully selected botanicals, functional mushrooms and adaptogenic herbs from growers who share our commitment to soil health, fair trade and regenerative practices. Every raw material is identity‑verified and independently tested for purity and quality. Because EU rules allow health claims only when they are specifically authorised, we focus on flavour, ritual and transparency rather than promising unapproved functional effects. In keeping with the legislation, we do not label Lion’s mane, maca or chaga with health claims, as none have yet been authorised by the European Commission.

Where a blend includes a nutrient with an authorised benefit—such as vitamin B6, which contributes to normal psychological function and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue—we state the claim exactly as listed in Regulation (EU) 432/2012, and only when the daily serving meets the required nutrient threshold.

Our formulators combine the ingredients in small batches, with no fillers or artificial flavours, to preserve freshness and the plants’ naturally rich taste. The result is a plant‑based ritual that helps you slow down, savour the moment and reconnect with yourself—quickly enough for even the busiest mornings.

The Path We Follow

Tucked away in the quiet town of Kupiškis, Lithuania, our little factory hums like a friendly kitchen. Every blend is whisked together in small batches by people who know each scoop by sight and scent. The botanicals, functional mushrooms and adaptogenic herbs we use arrive only from long‑trusted suppliers; before we let them anywhere near a mixing drum, each lot is sent to an independent lab to confirm purity and quality in line with EFSA safety guidance. No fillers, no artificial extras—just the good stuff that belongs in your cup.

Once the ingredients pass their checks, we fold them together gently, tasting as we go until the flavor is warm, balanced and soothing. You’ll notice the difference: a velvety hint of cocoa, the grounded earthiness of chaga, a soft lift from maca—all working in harmony without the harsh kick of excess caffeine. We seal the finished blend while it’s still fresh and label every pouch by hand, so you know exactly who packed it and when.

For us, wellbeing is less about chasing perfect health and more about creating a small daily ritual you genuinely look forward to. One spoonful stirred into hot milk or water turns into a quiet pause—a reminder that caring for yourself can be simple, natural and deeply enjoyable. That’s the path we walk every day from our Kupiškis workshop to your favorite mug.

✏️ Did you know?

🍄 Lion’s Mane

Did you know Lion’s Mane mushrooms grow on hardwood trees and naturally resemble a lion’s mane with their long, flowing strands?

🍵 Matcha

Matcha is made from young tea leaves that are shade-grown for several weeks before harvest — this process enhances their vibrant green color and delicate flavor.

🌰 Maca Root

Maca has been cultivated in the high altitudes of the Andes mountains for over 2,000 years and was considered a sacred plant by ancient civilizations.

🍄 Reishi Mushroom

Often called the “mushroom of immortality” in traditional Chinese culture, Reishi has been used for centuries as part of daily rituals for balance and longevity.

🍫 Cacao

Cacao was so highly valued by the ancient Mayans that cacao beans were used as currency. The word “cacao” comes from the Olmec and Mayan word “kakaw”.
