Questions before you choose.
How much does an Exceptional Piece weigh?
The Exceptional Piece is a selection of whole Tuber melanosporum black truffle offered on request. This page confirms neither a fixed weight nor an available piece. Tell us your desired weight and intended use; depending on the harvest and availability, the House specifies the proposed piece and its net weight in the quotation.
What should be confirmed before paying for this selection?
Choosing a selection or size prepares an enquiry without reserving stock or confirming an order. Tell us the meal date, dish, guest count or total weight, then your preferred collection arrangements or delivery postcode. The proposal specifies the batch, origin, net weight, tax-inclusive price, charges and receiving date. Also ask for the harvest date and storage instructions for the proposed batch.
