Black Truffles are what we do! We are the UK’s No.1 supplier of fresh Truffles to both home cooks, and the best Restaurants.

Black Truffles are hardier and longer lasting than white truffle varieties. They have a thicker “peridium” (skin) and will last up to 10 days if cared for correctly. Summer, Autumn and Winter each produce different, and increasingly aromatic varieties of Black Truffle.

Summer Truffles (tuber Aestivum, aka “Scorzone”) have a pale creamy interior; are mild and nutty, with notes of caramel.

Autumn Truffles (tuber Uncinatum aka “Burgundy” truffles) have a chocolatey coloured interior. They are aromatic, with an earthy perfume of hazlenuts, garlic, and woodland musk.

Winter Truffles (tuber Melanosporum, akd “Perigord”) are deeply aromatic and heady. They have a black interior, with strong notes of chocolate, molasses, red fruit and the smell of the forest after a heavy rainfall.
