Lactarius sanguifluus

S tier

Lactarius sanguifluus is the bloody milk cap—wine-red latex and superb culinary reputation in Mediterranean pine woods, often preferred over deliciosus by connoisseurs for denser flesh and flavour. Green staining still appears with age and bruising. A cornerstone of Catalan rovellón identity for many pickers. Cook thoroughly in traditional styles. Expert ID separates it from lesser Lactarius.
