Our story

A bowl of hot udon at Kagura started this.

In 2015, I sat in a tatami room at the Wadagoya lodge in Kagura, Japan. Boots off, something hot and savory in front of me, and a feeling that made me want more of the day, not less of it. Back home, too many great days started on coffee and nothing. I’ve been thinking about that moment ever since. Bāng Máng broth is our first attempt to bring a little of that feeling into everyday life. Let me know what you think. More to come!

Inspired by longstanding food and herbal traditions. Reimagined for modern, active lives.

Pouring a stick into a bottle after getting out of the water

Hot water, one stick, 30 seconds

Rip. Pour. Drink.

It has to be faster than the excuse not to. The lodge, the camp stove, the office kettle, or the one you already own.

RipTear open a stick. It fits in a jacket pocket, backpack, desk drawer, or glovebox.
PourAdd it to hot water at the lodge, campsite, office, airport, or home.
DrinkStir and enjoy. No blender, refrigerator, or cleanup.

When it fits

Made for the gaps in an active day.

A steaming mug of broth on a desk between work sessions — **Between meetings**A warm, savory alternative to another coffee or sweet snack.

Boots still on, warming up by a lodge fire with a steaming mug — **After the effort**Something warm after skiing, riding, hiking, paddling, or training.

A Spark stick tucked into a backpack pocket in the snow — **On the move**A stick in your pack for travel days, trailheads, and lodges.

“This is exactly what I need before I head out. When all my body wants is coffee and another hour of sleep, I just tear a stick, add hot water, and 30 seconds later I’m rolling.”
