Product 001

Elm Oyster

Hypsizygus ulmarius

A pale, sculptural mushroom with layered gills and a gentle savoury profile. It holds structure for composed dishes, softens quickly in the pan, and reads clearly on the plate.

Cultivar story

Chosen carefully. Adapted here.

We spent years trialling varieties before choosing this Elm Oyster cultivar for form, taste, kitchen texture, and reliable growth on Mauritian hardwood.

This is the first Sanpyon commercial offering. Hardwood is sourced exclusively from Mauritian managed forests.

Other mushrooms and microgreens are in R&D or trial. They will only be released once quality and supply are reliable enough for chefs.

Cultivar, substrate, and daily routines are built around the crop we can supply reliably.
