Live, lab-tested Golden Oyster liquid culture in a ready-to-inject 10ml syringe. Brilliant yellow bouquets with a rich, nutty aroma that fills the room.

Golden Oyster fruits in tight bouquets of brilliant canary-yellow caps, thin and ruffled at the edges, often dozens to a cluster. It is one of the most photogenic species in cultivation and one of the most aromatic — growers routinely notice a rich, nutty, cashew-like smell well before harvest.

The flavor follows the aroma: nuttier and more assertive than a Blue Oyster, with a delicate texture that suits quick sautés better than long cooking. Cook it thoroughly; like all oysters it is best not eaten raw.

It shares the Pink Oyster's appetite for warmth and speed, though it tolerates a slightly wider band. The caps are thin and dry out quickly, so keep humidity steady through fruiting and harvest the cluster whole.
