The white truffle of Alba, a refined delicacy which we are delighted to introduce to you and offer for your delectation. With its characteristic perfume, exquisite, very strong and intense, especially when its maturation process has finished.

With a superbly pleasant taste, particular, superior to all other types of truffles, Magnatum Pico is the king of Piedmont cuisine. It is sliced raw, generously, on the most typical dishes of the Monferrato and the Langhe. Try it on lamb, on Piedmont fondue, on a delicate risotto or a tasty dish of tajarin, you will find it is absolutely "divine" even on "Bunet"!!!

The Magnatum Pico, known in the area as "Trifola Bianca", is the most prized among edible truffles. If often has an irregular conformation, rotundish, almost always lobed, and full of cavities and protuberances.

The external appearance is for the most part smooth, yellow-whitish in colour, or grey. The internal mass is fleshy and compact, rich in marbled veining. The colour of the pulp varies from white to hazel nut, to pink, brown, to a pale yet lively red, depending on the plant it is in symbiosis with (Poplar, Willow, Oak and Lime). The land too has a role to play and only those which are marly-clay or marly-sandy favour its growth, at an altitude normally not greater than 450 m above sea level.
