The white truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico), known worldwide as Alba white truffle, has a distinctive aroma that is delicate and pronounced, making it highly sought after by both professional chefs and enthusiasts around the globe. The gleba, or internal flesh, of fresh prized white truffle is characterized by a color that ranges from blush pink to deep pink, sometimes veering towards brown, with extremely fine veining.

The outer skin, or peridium, is smooth and varies from light yellow to ochre, depending on the harvest location. It is the diversity of environments that imparts unique characteristics and aromas to each truffle, making every specimen one of a kind.

The notes of undergrowth evoke the moisture and freshness of the forest, while the scent of hay adds a touch of warmth and memories of sun-kissed open fields. The damp earth contributes depth and earthiness to the aroma, while the faint hint of garlic adds a subtle spicy pungency that harmonizes with the other elements. However, it is the delicate hint of gas that adds an aura of mystery and uniqueness to the fragrance of the prized white truffle. This subtle, almost metallic note can be interpreted as a touch of freshness or an element that adds depth and complexity to the overall bouquet.
The flavor of the white truffle is truly unique and extraordinary; just a few grams of truffle are enough to completely transform a dish, imparting depth and complexity. Its taste evokes a harmonious combination of notes, including aged cheese, with its richness and complexity, garlic, with its bold and spicy character, and a hint of sharpness that adds a vibrant energy to the overall flavor. However, what truly makes the taste of the white truffle stand out is its delicacy, softened by subtle hints of honey.
