I did actually catch some reticulation on the stipe this time so maybe Boletus edulis clade? Not familiar enough at all to make the ID, though. I had found one similar in all respects, but the stipe was very smooth all the way up. Taste was not bitter. I always catch them when they’re wormy, but this one was better than the others.
Always trim them until you are comfortable with the amount of worms they contain, before cooking. ;-)
