Tartufo.it is a site designed to provide, in a simple and clear, correct information on the world of truffles in Italy starting from the various existing regulations, both national and regional, that regulate the collection and sale of the valuable underground mushroom. There are many types of truffles and the places where they grow, also due to the climate changes that have occurred in recent decades. In this portal you will find the right information to distinguish the 9 types of truffles edible and marketable, choose the most appreciated for organoleptic and economic characteristics, buy in total safety certified products and high quality.

According to the “Framework Legislation on the collection, cultivation and trade of fresh or preserved truffles for consumption” (L. 16 December 1985, n. 752) the precious white truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico) is called white truffle of Alba (or Piedmont) and Acqualagna; the precious black truffle (Tuber melanosporum Vitt.) is, instead, called black truffle of Norcia or Spoleto. The Italian legislation already gives us precise indications on the designations of origin, useful for the final consumer to buy the fresh truffles valuable in certain and safe Italian locations.
