Buy white truffle The ‘tartufo bianco’ is only harvested in autumn, which increases its exclusivity. Considered the most select in the world, the white truffle (Tuber magnatum) owes its prestige to its limited and short availability, as well as its incredible and spectacular aroma. The white truffle grows wild in campaigns that run from late September to late December. This variety of truffle magnatum primarily grows in central and eastern European countries such as Italy, Croatia, Kosovo, and Bulgaria, among others. Celebrations arise around its exquisiteness, such as the one that takes place every year at the Grizane Cavour castle, near the Piedmont city of Alba. This is the international auction of the white truffle for charitable purposes, where the most famous restaurateurs and foodies compete to obtain this precious gastronomic diamond. Where to buy quality white truffle Knowing the market and the best seasons to consume white truffle, at laumont.shop you can buy fresh White Truffle at its optimal ripening moment. A large part of the white truffle harvest worldwide takes place in Italy. It is there that it proliferates naturally in the forests of the Piedmont region, from where it is considered native. However, in recent years, the origin of this truffle can be found in several countries in Eastern Europe. Availability and campaigns to buy white truffle The white truffle begins to grow in September, but it is considered that its ripening point is still not optimal for consumption. Being such an exceptional and unique product, it is advisable to wait for its optimal moment to delight in its aroma and flavor. This optimal ripening moment arrives with the cold. The sooner the cold arrives in the forests of the Italian Piedmont, the sooner we can consume first-quality white truffle. With a bit of luck, the first specimens appear in October. As we approach winter, there is more availability of white truffle, and it is usually of better quality: if you want to consume fresh white truffle at its peak, the ideal months are November, December, and, if weather conditions allow, January.
