60 YEARS DEDICATED TO THE WORLD OF TRUFFLES, WITH RESPECT FOR ITS TERRITORY.
From the Apennine woods of Acqualagna, our company collects truffles, the most precious spontaneous fruit of these lands, and transforms them into refined gastronomic specialties, so everyone can rediscover the flavors of the Marche culinary tradition on the table every day.
ACQUALAGNA
RICH AND GENEROUS LAND
Acqualagna is famously known worldwide as the capital of the “fresh truffle all year round”, a real-world crossroads of truffle production, trade, and tasting. Acqualagna is the only city that boasts such a diversified territorial collection of the 9 types of existing truffles and as many as three national/regional fairs of white truffles, superior black truffles, and summer black truffles. Not only that, the Magnatum Pico of Acqualagna, together with Alba, is the only one that enjoys a designation of origin: the superior white truffles can only be from Alba or Acqualagna.
BOOK YOUR TRUFFLE EXPERIENCE
Acqualagna Tartufi organizes, at the client’s request (minimum 2 people), a real “truffle hunt” with an expert quarryman and his faithful and skilled dog. It lasts about 2 hours and offers one of the most intense emotional experiences that our territory can offer, through a beautiful walk in the woods and hills of Acqualagna and an explanation of the secrets of the search for the superior tuber, both white and black. Truffles grow underground in symbiotic relationship with various types of trees and are quite difficult to find, for this reason they are considered delicacies and finding them is a real challenge, which often depends on the experience and knowledge of the local truffle hunter, as well as than from the sense of smell of his trained dog. Once you have finished your search for truffles, we visit our truffle processing establishment, where all the transformation processes from the raw material to the finished product (creams, sauces, oil, etc) are explained. Then you are directed to our store in the central square of Acqualagna, where you can have a complete tasting of most of our truffle-based products. Those who want, can finish the tour with a lunch or dinner with black truffles (aestivum or uncinatum) or white truffles in our renowned restaurant Braceria da Plinc, located in the historic center of Acqualagna.
