The truffle tour Food tour

Tartufi Bianconi, located in the lush, green countryside of the Upper Tiber Valley, has been gathering, processing, and selling their highly-prized black and white truffles and other woodland products since 1990. The company's research focused on the storage systems of a product that is linked to rapid seasonality.Fresh truffles must be eaten immediately, but with its vast range of pastas, sauces and oils, Tartufi Bianconi is able to provide the truffle’s unique fragrance all year long. To perfectly conserve their true taste, only carefully selected truffles are processed, in accordance with ancient methods adapted to modern day requirements.The Truffle Tour is a unique and evocative experience. We guide our guests on a fascinating expedition through the woods, hunting truffles with hunters and dogs. After an optional visit to a medieval hamlet  the day  goes on visiting our farm and the truffle museum and then in kitchen for a lesson on how to prepare the day’s harvest and, of course, a tasting / lunch.
