Experience Details

The truffle is a unique underground fungus that grows 40-50 cm deep, revered since ancient times for its exquisite taste and aphrodisiac properties. Its characteristics, such as color, flavor, and aroma, are influenced by the host tree it grows near, with colors ranging from light grey to black. Truffles are traditionally hunted with trained dogs, and this practice is a cultural heritage passed down through generations.

A truffle hunting experience offers the chance to learn how to find, prepare, and distinguish high-quality truffles. Guided by an expert “tartufaio,” participants gain insight into the fascinating process of truffle cultivation and harvesting, making this an unforgettable journey into Tuscany's culinary traditions.
