Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully collected and dried to preserve its light brown to greyish-brown color, spongy texture, and mild earthy aroma. When decocted, the puffball softens and releases a subtle, slightly smoky flavor with a smooth, mucilaginous mouthfeel, blending well with other herbs in teas and soups.
