TANTALISING TRUFFLES

Discover the coveted truffle, the gem of the culinary world, beloved by chefs, cherished by gourmands, and adored by foodies everywhere.

Truffles grow deep within the soil in the forests, woven beneath the roots of magnificent oak, poplar, chestnut and hazelnut trees. Hard to find and even harder to cultivate, truffles are “hunted”, sought out by specially trained dogs who sniff the tubers out and guide the truffle hunters to their prize.

The most pungent varieties grow during the winter when conditions are just right – not too cold but not too warm, and not too dry but not to rainy either! This temperamental tuber is beautifully pungent and fabulously aromatic! The white variety – the Alba Truffle – can be found in Italy, while the black truffle, known as the Perigord truffle, grows in France and also in Italy, but also as far down south as in Australia, Argentina and even Chile!

We source our fresh truffles from reputable truffle hunters and have them shipped to us every week during the season.
