Every year between June and September, Yunnan enters its annual wild mushroom season and becomes one of the top destinations for Chinese foodies.
Of the wild mushrooms, the most tasty and expensive are termite mushrooms, penny bun mushrooms and matsutake mushrooms.
In August, a cafe in Yunnan released a new product that blends Yunnan’s two specialities, coffee and penny bun mushrooms.

The two new products, penny bun mushroom and cheese americano and penny bun mushroom oat milk latte, are priced at just 23 yuan (US$3) per cup.
