Miyazaki’s Tenpaku Shiitake Mushroom

Tenpaku shiitake is a very rare type of Miyazaki’s dried shiitake.
In the 3 years it take for shiitake to grow, Tenpaku shiitake is named for its natural crack in its cap due to temperature, weather, and humidity. It is also called “Hanadonko”, or Flower donko because it looks like a flower. Harvest crop is limited across the nation and the precious shiitake is traded for a high price even now.
