Mushroom –Masatake.
One of our cook’s specialties is the prized Masatake mushroom. These mushrooms are well known in Japanese culture. Freshly picked mushrooms are available in Bhutan around August/September each year, and available dried, year round.
Due to their high cost Masatake mushrooms are not included as part of the standard menu, however Masatake mushroom based menus can be arranged with us for as little as US$30 / of mushroom per person.
Typically Masatake mushrooms fetch several thousand US$/kg in international markets.
