Agaricus subrufescens (almond mushroom, mushroom of the sun)

The almond mushroom is one of the few edible and medicinal mushrooms native to the Brazilian rainforest. There, it is called "Cogumelo de Deus" (God's mushroom) due to the impressive powers attributed to it. This mushroom, which has earned a leading position among the world's medicinal mushrooms because of its special characteristics, has been quickly adopted into medicinal traditions in Asia, where it is mainly cultivated today. It does not grow on decaying wood like many of its congeners, but requires fermented soil, making its cultivation very demanding. Agaricus subrufescens, also known as mushroom of the sun, is one of the few mushrooms that grows and thrives in direct sunlight.

This intensively researched mushroom has been found to contain the highest concentration of long-chain polysaccharides, particularly beta-glucans, of any edible mushroom — higher even than well-known reishi and shiitake.

Our medicinal mushrooms are sourced from Gutian County in Fujian, China, a region 600-700m above sea level which is renowned for its cultivation of mushrooms. The cultivation of mushrooms is an age-old tradition in this region, as is reflected by their unparalleled quality. The pristine, fertile land and climate, protected by dense mountain forests, as well as the use of sophisticated substrates, provides an ideal environment for the mushrooms to thrive and develop exceptional levels of nutrients and a high concentration of phytochemicals. Our untreated mushrooms are cultivated without pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. They are grown to full maturity and hand-picked as their content of bioactives reaches its peak, between July and October.

The mushrooms retain their raw quality as a result of gentle drying at temperatures below 40°C. This process preserves the delicate enzymes and potent bioactives of the mushrooms. To ensure that these are bioavailable, the dried mushrooms are then gently milled. Thanks to our use of the "shell-broken" method, the powder reaches a fineness of less than 0.1mm, which ensures that the compounds within the cells are optimally available for absorption. The resulting powder contains the full richness of enzymes, vitamins, minerals and trace elements of the whole fruiting body of the mushroom.
