Description

Black Truffle Oil – Cold Pressed Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil with Real Black Truffle

Discover the rich, aromatic flavour of our Black Truffle Oil, made with premium Italian extra virgin olive oil and real Black Summer Truffle.

Cold-pressed in Tuscany, the olive oil provides a beautifully smooth base for the distinctive earthy character of black truffle. Together, they create a delicious finishing oil with remarkable depth and balance.

Initially, you’ll experience a rich black truffle aroma. Then, the flavour develops into a smooth, slightly peppery olive character with a rounded, creamy finish.

Unlike some heavily flavoured alternatives, our Italian truffle oil offers a natural-tasting experience without an unpleasant synthetic aftertaste.

Whether you’re preparing fresh pasta, creamy risotto or a simple plate of scrambled eggs, a small drizzle adds an indulgent finishing touch.

Premium Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Tuscany

Great truffle oil starts with excellent olive oil.

That’s why our Black Truffle Oil uses Italian extra virgin olive oil, cold-pressed in Tuscany. This traditional process produces a high-quality oil with a distinctive flavour and smooth texture.

Furthermore, the olive oil contributes gentle peppery notes that complement the earthy character of Black Summer Truffle.

The recipe includes real black truffle alongside added aroma, creating a balanced combination of savoury depth and fragrant truffle character.

As a result, the finished oil offers much more than truffle aroma alone. It also delivers the flavour and texture of premium Italian extra virgin olive oil.

The Distinctive Flavour of Black Summer Truffle

Black Summer Truffle, also known as Tuber aestivum or Scorzone, is appreciated for its earthy character and delicate nutty notes.

Its flavour pairs particularly well with butter, Parmesan, mushrooms, eggs and potatoes.

Meanwhile, the slightly peppery finish of the Tuscan olive oil provides a delicious contrast to the rounded truffle aroma.

Consequently, this combination works beautifully with both simple ingredients and more elaborate dishes.

For the best experience, use the oil as a finishing ingredient rather than exposing it to prolonged high heat.

How to Use Black Truffle Oil

Our gourmet finishing oil is wonderfully versatile. In particular, it enhances warm dishes that allow its distinctive aroma to develop naturally.

Here are some of our favourite serving suggestions:

• Fresh pasta: Drizzle over tagliatelle, linguine or ravioli with butter and Parmesan.
• Risotto: Finish a creamy mushroom or Parmesan risotto just before serving.
• Pizza: Add a few drops to freshly baked mushroom, mozzarella or cheese pizza.
• Steak: Drizzle lightly over grilled beef or venison after cooking.
• Egg dishes: Enhance scrambled eggs, omelettes or poached eggs.
• Roasted potatoes: Toss with warm potatoes or add to buttery mashed potatoes.
• Vegetables: Finish roasted cauliflower, asparagus or sautéed mushrooms.

• Bruschetta: Drizzle over toasted sourdough with mushrooms or Parmesan.

Start with a small drizzle and adjust to taste. Because truffle aroma is distinctive, a little can go a long way.
