1. Japan’s land area is small, and its production of wild matsutake is very rare. Rare things are more valuable...

2. Japan is a country that knows very well about health preservation. In Okinawa, Japan, centenarians are common. The Japanese have a deep understanding of health preservation and dietary therapy. Japanese people often use matsutake mushrooms. Matsutake mushrooms have super strong resistance to genetic mutations and strong anti-cancer effects, making Japan’s cancer mortality rate among the lowest in the world.

3. The Japanese are a nation that loves food very much. The special fragrance of matsutake has deeply captured the taste buds of the Japanese. They feel that matsutake is a magical delicacy given by God. It is not only rich in nutrition but also delicious. , so matsutake is called "magic mushroom" in Japan.

Tips:

Matsutake has extremely strict requirements on the growth environment, and the growth process is also extremely slow, generally taking 5 to 6 years. At present, there is no successful example of artificial cultivation in the world. Japan is at the forefront of the world in the research on artificial cultivation of matsutake mushrooms. Since its research at the beginning of the last century, artificial cultivation has still not been possible.

In recent years, due to environmental deterioration and large-scale predatory collection, wild matsutake resources have been increasingly depleted. Global matsutake production has been declining year by year, and its economic value has continued to rise.

Most of what we buy daily are: Agaricus blazei, which is artificially cultivated.
