Australian Fresh Black Winter Truffles
While we bask in the Northern Hemisphere’s summer months, down in Australia, the cold temperatures chill the soil and become the perfect growing ground for tuber Melanosporum truffles, the famed black truffles usually harvested in France and Italy.
More than two decades ago, entrepreneur foodies in Australia discovered that the fertile soils and plentiful trees were the ideal conditions for growing truffles. Taking spores from the Perigord truffle of France, they “planted” truffle in the Tasmanian soil, and their efforts paid off, with Australian Perigord Black truffles filling the seasonal gap – fresh winter truffles, all season long!
Of a quality, aroma and flavor that rivals the French truffles, we source our Australian truffles from reputable truffle hunters, who harvest by hand and ship carefully by air, so you can enjoy them as close to harvest as possible.
