Daria and Dan are the founders of Taiga Spirit: two outdoorsy people who care deeply about real connection, but not about the toll that drinking can take.
So they created Taiga: a brand designed to spark a modern drinking culture rooted in balance, wellbeing, and care. For the body, the mind, and the planet.
With a background in neuroscience and psychopharmacology, Daria brings a scientific foundation to Taiga, marked by a strong focus on function, safety, and harm reduction. Dan’s background in the humanities, and his passion for culture and society, supports Taiga’s mission to reimagine modern drinking culture, shifting the focus from alcohol itself to experience, place, and people, and encouraging a more conscious approach to how and why we drink.
Taiga’s flagship product is the culmination of over 30 years of research into the medicinal and wellness uses of Lignin, first developed by their relatives in the Soviet Union. Since then, the technology for purification and effective delivery has been refined, unlocking the natural power of Lignin to adsorb toxins in the gut.
Taiga is grounded in science and driven by the desire to shape a drinking culture that’s more positive, more conscious, and less harmful to the body.
It’s time to reframe the relationship with alcohol. Taiga Spirit is a step toward that shift.
The mission is simple: ensuring that social drinking doesn’t stand in the way of wellness. Not by rejecting rituals of connection, but by supporting them with better choices.
For what matters tomorrow.
