Gourmet Medley Inclusions
Our Gourmet Medley is a reflection of our unwavering commitment to organic, chemical-free cultivation, and waste reduction practices. We grow over 20 gourmet mushroom varieties on rotation throughout the year. It is not possible to specify or guarantee specific mushroom varieties in each Medley, nor can we guarantee the specific colour scheme or look of each Medley. We grow in small, careful batches, and so Medleys harvested on the same day may contain different mushrooms. What’s more, given that we grow organically and according to a zero waste and sustainable ethos, there is always a chance that some mushrooms may look ‘wonky’ (as nature intended).We do not throw out or waste delicious, nutrient-dense mushrooms because of their appearance.
Gourmet Medley Assortment
The assortment you receive will be determined by the weight of your medley. A 300g medley may feature fewer varieties than a 2.5kg one. And, when your assortment is being prepared by our harvesters, priority is given to meeting the paid-for weight and preserving the integrity of bouquets of mushrooms. For example, if three complete bouquets or blooms of mushrooms meet the paid-for weight, this will be prioritised over a Medley where bouquets are split.
Lion’s Mane: Range of Normal
We cultivate a variety of Lion’s Mane strains, including Monkey Head Mushroom, Satyr’s Beard, Bearded Hedgehog Mushroom, and Mountain-Priest Mushroom, Bearded Tooth Fungus. The diversity is vast. The colour spectrum is broad, ranging from yellow, white, beige, to pink and even brown, influenced by species, humidity, and season. The appearance can vary from a cauliflower-like structure to low icicle tendrils or even an almost spiky ‘fur’ texture – all within the realm of normal. Taste also spans a spectrum from sweet to savoury. We believe this diversity enhances the culinary experience.
