Fresh White Truffle is one of the most precious variety of truffle from economic and culinary point of view.

It is the truffle par excellence, the most prized and known all over the world for its characteristics: the intense aroma it emanates and the extremely delicate taste. Ocher-yellow in colour, it has a smooth rind and a hazelnut-coloured pulp with thin white veins.

White Truffle can be found from the beginning of September to the end of December. It is considered the truffle for excellence because it has a significant commercial importance.

For the Fine White Truffle to develop and thrive it needs special soil with equally particular climatic conditions: the soil must be soft and humid for most of the year, and it must be rich in calcium and have good air circulation. It is therefore understandable that not all soil has these characteristics and these environmental factors make the white truffle not only a rare delicacy but also sought after.
