The union of Goose Foie Gras and Melanosporum black truffle

A gastronomic match made in heaven!

The subtle taste of Whole Goose Foie Gras meets the unique, heady scent of Melanosporum black truffle. A perfect combination of melt-in-the-mouth Foie Gras and crisp truffle.

The truffle enhances the flavour of the Goose Foie Gras and adds an extra note of sophistication and refinement. An ideal product for prestigious dining.

What is Melanosporum black truffle?

More commonly known as the Perigord black truffle, or the “black diamond of gastronomy”, Tuber melanosporum is a species of black truffle. The flesh is firm, brownish or even greyish and criss-crossed by white veins. It grows in the south-east and south-west of France, along the Dordogne valley. 

This species of truffle grows in calcareous soils at a depth of 1 to 15 centimetres near the roots of so-called “truffle” trees, including oaks and hazel trees.

This outstanding gastronomic jewel has a more refined, subtle taste than the Alba truffle (white truffle). Its subtle smell is reminiscent of musk, undergrowth and soil with a delicate scent of roasted hazelnuts.
