Description
White Italian Truffle Tuber Magnatum Pico 1KG
At Dr. Import, we are proud to introduce one of the most extraordinary culinary treasures on earth — the White Italian Truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico). Revered by Michelin-star chefs and gourmet collectors alike, this truffle stands as a timeless symbol of luxury, rarity, and Italian heritage.
Grown only in select microclimates of Piedmont, Tuscany, and Umbria, these elusive truffles thrive underground in symbiosis with oak, hazelnut, and poplar roots. Each one is discovered through the ancient art of truffle hunting, guided by trained dogs at dawn, when the cool air preserves their intoxicating aroma. Every harvest is limited, every specimen unique — no two truffles are ever alike.
The White Truffle distinguishes itself from all other varieties by its extraordinary fragrance and complex flavor profile. Upon slicing, it releases an aroma that evokes garlic, honey, and aged cheese with subtle notes of wild mushroom and earth. Its texture is smooth, its taste delicate yet persistent — capable of transforming even the simplest dish into a masterpiece. Shaved thinly over fresh pasta, risotto, eggs, or carpaccio, it delivers an experience that transcends taste — an immersion into the essence of Italian terroir.
Each truffle offered by Dr. Import is certified for origin and freshness, carefully stored in temperature-controlled conditions, and shipped within hours of harvest to preserve its fragrance. Sourcing is handled directly from trusted Italian trufficulteurs who uphold centuries-old traditions while adhering to sustainable foraging practices.
Availability is strictly seasonal — generally from October to December — making every delivery a rare and precious event. Due to its limited nature, quantities are extremely restricted and allocated exclusively for our most discerning clients in Switzerland.
At Dr. Import, we don’t simply sell ingredients; we curate experiences. The White Italian Truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico) embodies everything we value — authenticity, refinement, and the pursuit of perfection. It is not just food, but a story of time, place, and passion — the true diamond of Italian cuisine.
