Grade A Fresh Black Winter Truffles (Tuber Melanosporum) – 100g

Tuber Melanosporum or the Perigord Truffle, is around 3-8cm in size, but irregular in shape. It is deep black in colour and easily recognisable as a truffle with the small wart-shaped elevations. Once the Perigord has been sliced, it shows a very dark black interior with fine white veins. The Black Winter Truffle is best known as being part of the French cuisine. Their incredible smell has a forest type earthy note mixed with mush and a fine sweetness.

NOTICE ABOUT ORDERING

Our truffles are freshly extracted, collected and cleaned before being sent to us to satisfy our orders. The way it works in terms of ordering is incredibly simple, but you must plan ahead.

We work on a weekly fulfilment programme which means that all orders are dispatched on a Monday for delivery the same week.

However, all orders must be received before Sunday’s cut off of 2:00pm in order to receive your order that week. All orders received after this point will carry over to the following weeks fulfilment (Bank Holidays may impact the delivery times so please email us if you have specific date requirements).
