EXPERIENCE OUR TRUFFLES
Truffles are specialised underground mushrooms that can only grow on the roots of particular trees. There are many different types of truffes across the world. Some are edible, some are not. One of the most prized for the dinner table is the French black truffle (Tuber melanosporum), which grows naturally in the wild in Europe and has now been established at Millgrove’s Manjimup Truffière.

TRUFFLE TIPS AND RECIPES
To be enjoyed at their peak truffles need to be consumed within a week or two of harvest. The best way to store a truffle is to wrap it in paper towel and pop it into a sealed jar or container in the crisper compartment of your fridge. Replace the paper towel every day or so to ensure the truffle is kept free of moisture. See our recipe page for other ways to store and cook your truffles.
