In the forests of Etna, several mushroom species and genera grow. Their aroma derives from their particular development in symbiosis with some plants, from which they absorb perfumes and aromas, like resin from pine trees, a particular sweetness from chestnut trees, spicy aromas from beech trees, and herbaceous aromas from the wild herbs growing in the undergrowth of oak forests.
