Hush is Hermetica's nighttime gummy, built around a precise 0.35 mg micro-dose of melatonin per gummy, with L-theanine, reishi and passion flower alongside it. Twenty gummies per cream tin, $40, one gummy is one serving.
Shoppers cross-shopping sleep formulas are usually choosing between a precise micro-dose and a larger conventional dose, and between two very different bedtime rituals. Hush takes the precision route: a deliberately small, precisely stated amount of melatonin, printed plainly on the label, in a format that takes five seconds and no cleanup.
What you are actually deciding between
Most people who land on a comparison like this one are not looking for a spec sheet. They are looking for a decision, and usually because something they already tried left them foggy in the morning or stopped feeling like anything after a week.
That decision comes down to three things: how much melatonin you want in the picture, what else is in the formula doing work alongside it, and whether the format survives contact with your real evenings. Everything else is packaging.
Melatonin is the number that decides everything
Melatonin is not a sedative. It is a timing signal. Your body releases it in very small amounts as the evening progresses, and that release is what tells your system the day is over. The amount involved is tiny compared to what most supplement aisles sell.
That mismatch is why the melatonin figure matters more than almost anything else on a label. A larger dose is not a stronger version of the same thing. It is a louder version of a signal that was designed to be quiet.
Why 0.35 mg is a deliberate choice
Every Hush gummy delivers exactly 0.35 mg of melatonin. That number was chosen, not rounded to whatever was convenient. It is enough to participate in your body's own evening timing without taking the whole conversation over, and it is small enough that you can build a nightly ritual around it rather than saving it for emergencies.
Precision also means you know what you took. One gummy is one serving. There is no scooping, no half-scoops, no guessing whether tonight's dose matched last night's. If you want the full argument for restraint over volume, we made it in detail in low-dose vs. high-dose melatonin.
What sits next to the melatonin
A sleep formula that is only melatonin is asking one ingredient to handle a job with several moving parts. Falling asleep and staying settled are not the same task, and neither is quieting a mind that is still running through tomorrow.
Hush puts three well-known evening botanicals and amino acids alongside the melatonin:
- L-theanine — the amino acid found in green tea, long used for a calm, unsedated state rather than a knockout.
- Reishi — the functional mushroom traditionally taken in the evening, and the one most associated with winding down rather than revving up.
- Passion flower — a botanical with a long history in traditional evening preparations, still one of the most recognized calming herbs in the category.
The point of a stack like this is that no single ingredient is being asked to carry the whole night. You can read more on how those pieces fit together in our L-theanine guide and our piece on reishi and passion flower.
Format: does it survive a real Tuesday night
This is the part shoppers underrate, and it is often what decides whether a nighttime product becomes a habit. Any format that has steps — measuring, mixing, rinsing — asks something of you at the end of the day. Some people genuinely love that ceremony. Others love the idea of it and stop by week three, usually on the night they get home late — which is exactly the night they needed it.
Hush is a gummy. You chew one and you are done. Nothing to measure, nothing to wash, nothing to pack differently when you travel. That is the whole trade: ceremony on one side, consistency on the other. Hush is built for the second.
Testing, sourcing and what premium should mean
Premium in this category should mean something you can check, not something you can only feel. Every Hush batch is third-party tested and made in the USA, and the melatonin amount is stated as a specific figure rather than buried inside a proprietary blend where the individual amounts disappear.
What premium should look like on a sleep label: a melatonin figure stated in milligrams, actives listed with their own amounts rather than hidden in a blend, and an independent lab standing behind the batch. Hush does all three, which is what separates a formula that was designed from one that was assembled.
The per-night math
Sleep products are easier to compare per night than per tin. Hush is $40 for 20 gummies, and one gummy is one serving, so a night of Hush is $2.00. Subscribe and save lowers the ongoing price, and you can cancel any time. Orders over $60 ship free, so a second tin, or a tin paired with Cozy, our caffeine-free adaptogenic chai, clears the threshold.
And because a sleep routine is something you have to actually live with before you know, Hush is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Try it for a few weeks of ordinary nights, not one hopeful one.

Which one fits you
If your evenings have room for a ritual and you want the act of making something to be part of winding down, a prepare-it-yourself format is a reasonable place to look. If what you want is a measured, repeatable dose that you will still be taking three months from now, without a scoop or a sink, Hush was built for exactly that.
Hermetica made the choice in the direction of precision on purpose: a deliberately small, precisely stated amount of melatonin, real supporting botanicals, and a number on the label you can point to. If that is the version of a sleep routine you have been looking for, start with one tin of Hush and give it two ordinary weeks.
