Winter Black Truffles (Tuber melanosporum Vitt.) in Australia

Winter Season is already started in Australia and Truffles are ready to be collected and to be eaten!

Tuber melanosporum starts to be quite popular in Australia. Every years more farmers start to grow this amazing species. The retail price is quite high if we compare with Europan prices. The price is around $ 1300-2000 per kg.

In WA there are some Companies that commercialised fresh truffles and truffles products.

I had the possibility to taste some products of Great Southern Truffles that make some nice truffle's products some of them organic.
