Why is truffle so precious?
Tuber melanosporum (black truffle) or aestivum (white truffle) is a rare mushroom. It is typically harvested in Dordogne / Périgord, only from autumn to early spring. Its delicate hand-picking requires expertise, and truffle trees are not easy to find. Fresh truffles are selected based on strict criteria of scent and size.
All shapes and sizes of truffle
There are several varieties of truffles, with different shapes, colors, and smells. Black truffle is best known for its complex earthy character and woody aroma. Summer truffle, also known as white truffle, is acclaimed for its lighter taste and hazelnut notes.
