We engage in production and sales of four types of

- making the most of our highly sophisticated mushroom
cultivation technology and under a comprehensive production
and quality management setup. To ensure continued delivery
of high-quality mushrooms to consumers, we also maintain
a specialized research center known as the Mushroom
General Research Institute.

Bunashimeji and Bunapi mushrooms.

Respect for Consumers: Natural culture ensures safe, worry-free mushrooms!
- We cultivate mushrooms under the strictest hygienic standards and quality controls - free of agricultural chemicals and additives.
- Culture media are organic. Corncob meal (pulverized cobs of non-genetically-modified corn) and rice bran are typically employed as culture media.
Eryngii(King trumpet)
■ Attracting attention for its ability to help control cholesterol and prevent fat accumulation in the liver.
■ A significant source of dietary fiber, helping to reduce constipation.
Maitake
■ Each package contains one whole stalk of Maitake. The stalk is packaged immediately after harvesting, prolonging freshness.
■ Our Maitake retains the appearance of a fresh-picked natural mushroom.
■ Our Maitake is fleshy, offering comfortable resistance to the teeth. Enjoy the enhanced crispiness of our large and fleshy Maitake caps.
Bunashimeji
■ Bunashimeji mushroom may taste slightly bitter at times, but this bitterness is natural and is savored by lovers of this mushroom. Deriving from terpene, the bitterness is said to serve various bioactive functions. Through research and breeding, HOKUTO promotes development of tasty Bunashimeji mushrooms that are less bitter and easier to eat.
Bunapi
■ Bunapi is a HOKUTO original, developed from our efforts to breed Bunashimeji mushrooms. When consumed, it offers a unique feeling -- a combination of crispy texture and unmatched smoothness.
