Sourced from truffle farms in WA, NSW, TAS and Europe, depending on the season.
Truffles are quite mysterious – they are scarce, difficult to grow, have no visible support system and oddly, grow underground in the middle of winter when everything else is dormant.
While 90% of our business comes from restaurants and export trade. We have recently opened our shop to the public. You’re standing in it right now.
Extra Class truffles are the highest-grade truffles that have a beautiful regular shape with a strong characteristic aroma, flavour and colour.
Peridium (skin) is brown/black.
All truffles harvested within a few days and free from soil and foreign matter.
Beautiful shape presents well at table and for shaving.
Inside, the gleba (flesh) is black with well-defined white vein marbling.
All truffles will have a small nick so that we can see the gleba and determine maturity.
Strictly graded for top quality and outstanding aroma.
All truffles are graded according to size, shape, integrity, characteristic aroma.
Truffle weight will be equal to or slightly heavier than the truffle ordered.
Recommend 5-7g per person per dish.
