Mescaline is found in many types of cacti, most prominently in peyote (lophophora williamsii), San Pedro (trichocerus pachanoi) and the Peruvian Torch (trichocerus peruvianus). The mescaline content of the various mescaline containing cacti varies greatly between individual samples as well as between species. Following is an estimate of the mescaline contents of these three species. Although there has long been a myth that Trichocerus peruvianus is “10 times” stronger than T. pachanoi, there is not much data to support this view. Many reports indicate that peruvianus may be somewhat stronger than pachanoi, but this is hotly disputed among cactus experts.
* Lophophora williamsii – 300 mg / 27 g dried material
* Trichocerus peruvianus – 300 mg / 15 to 100 grams dried material (.3% – 2.0%)
* Trichocerus pachanoi – 300 mg / 15 to 100 grams grams dried material (.3% – 2.0%)
178 mg mescaline HCl = 200 mg mescaline sulfate.
