Why Lion's Mane
What is SOPLA?
SOPLA was founded to build Iceland's first scalable Lion's Mane production and create a local source of premium specialty mushrooms. Instead of importing from the other side of the world — a fresh, controlled product, grown right here in Iceland.
An innovation-driven approach, sustainable food production and a short supply chain — at the Icelandic Eco Business Park.
Premium culinary ingredient
A chef's favourite for fine-dining dishes.
Unique texture & flavour
Delicate, reminiscent of seafood.
Local Icelandic production
Freshness straight from the Eco Business Park.
Sustainable cultivation
Renewable energy, low footprint, zero-waste minded.
Fresh or Dried
Two forms. One standard of purity.
Fresh, peak-quality Lion's Mane is at the heart of SOPLA. For longer shelf life we also offer a dried form — keeping the full spectrum of its qualities.
Dried
Carefully dried
Gently dried to lock in nutrients and extend shelf life while keeping the full spectrum of benefits.
