Fresh English Black Autumn Truffles
We source our fresh English Black Autumn Truffles wild from three counties in England: Wiltshire, Hampshire, and Dorset. Our team of dedicated truffle hunters forages them from secret woodland locations, delivering to us several times per week for peak freshness.
Black Autumn Truffles (Tuber Uncinatum), often referred to as Burgundy Truffles, boast a nutty, earthy, and mushroomy aroma with subtle notes of warmth and chocolate. Their rich caramel flavour carries hints of garlic, hazelnut, and woodland musk, making them a luxurious addition to seasonal dishes.
The truffle interior typically ranges from caramel to milk chocolate in colour. The exterior appears brown to black, covered with small pyramidal protrusions and natural craters—beautiful and distinct. While you can remove the slightly bitter outer layer with a paring knife, this step isn’t necessary when shaving or grating.
For best results, grate or shave fresh Autumn Truffles as thinly as possible over hot, buttery, savoury dishes. They pair beautifully with dairy, mushrooms, carbohydrates, and white meats.

How to Store and Care for Fresh English Black Autumn Truffles
Step 1: Unpack Immediately
Remove your fresh truffles from the vacuum-sealed packaging as soon as they arrive.
Truffles are living fungi, which means they need to breathe. If left in sealed packaging for more than two days, they will begin to spoil due to lack of air circulation.
Step 2: Proper Storage
Place the truffles in an air-tight container lined with dry paper towels. Store them below 6°C, ideally in the fridge. Allow the Truffle to air-dry each day, ensuring all surface moisture has evaporated. Replace the paper towels daily to keep moisture levels down and ensure the truffles stay dry and fresh. If cared for properly, fresh English Black Autumn Truffles can last up to 10 days.
Pro Tip: Never store fresh truffles with rice. Although it’s a common myth, rice will actually draw out their delicate aroma and flavour.

Satisfaction Guaranteed
We individually check and grade each truffle for quality before dispatch. Minor nicks, notches, cuts or surface marks may be present—these result from natural foraging or quality testing and do not affect the flavour or freshness.

Good quality truffles
Magic on scrambled eggs!
Fresh and lovely smell. Super tasty
Good quality fresh truffle and nice packaging
Great prouct. Excellent customer service!
Excellent service very fresh truffles. Flavour was very delicate and not as strong as expected, but delicious nonetheless!
Great quality truffles
Well packaged and promptly delivered. Good condition truffle. A beautiful thing really. Great service. No complaints at all. Only point would be that, it was extremely mild, almost lacking in flavour…nice to try, but I shall revert back to ‘shock horror’ truffle oils and other cheaper products for that deep, trufflely hit.
I am so pleased with my order, on time, well packed along with a QR code for instructions on how to store them, perfect.
But most importantly they were so fresh and delicious…..
This my second purchase from you and it won’t be my last……
Thankyou
Really nice quality truffle!
