Please note that now is the only part of the year – April and early May – when no good fresh truffles are in season.

During this time only very early season summer truffles are available, which we do sell if you need them, but they are very mild.

Much better for amazing truffle flavour during this period: our frozen black winter truffles and our all natural canned truffle juice. Both bring the deep and luxurious flavour of peak season black winter truffles to your dishes all year round.

Summer truffles do improve weekly as the season progresses and by mid to late May they usually develop some mild aroma, though even when they reach their best they’ll only ever be pleasant (nutty, mushroomy and earthy) rather than mind blowing.

Infinitely more exciting: in June, the return of our Australian winter truffles. Now used and loved by almost all the leading restaurants around the UK, Australian truffle season usually starts in early June and runs all summer until late August.
