Selektia Tartufi Black Truffle Flavoured Extra Virgin Olive Oil 100ml

Selektia Tartufi Black Truffle Flavoured Extra Virgin Olive Oil 100ml is a gourmet Italian finishing oil that blends high-quality extra virgin olive oil with the deep, earthy aroma of black truffle. Produced in Tuscany by Selektia Tartufi, it is designed to bring the distinctive character of black truffle into everyday cooking in a simple, ready-to-use form.

The base is a smooth, fruit-forward extra virgin olive oil that carries the truffle aroma without overpowering it. It is infused with black truffle essence (Tuber aestivum or similar varieties depending on batch), resulting in a flavour profile that is earthy, savoury, musky, and deeply umami-rich, with subtle notes of forest floor, mushrooms, and roasted nuts.

Compared to white truffle oil, black truffle oil tends to be more robust and grounded, with a stronger savoury depth and less delicate floral character. This makes it especially suited to heartier dishes where bold flavour is welcome.

It is intended primarily as a finishing oil, as heat can diminish the truffle aroma. A few drops added at the end of cooking can elevate simple ingredients and bring a restaurant-style complexity to dishes.

Black truffle olive oil pairs particularly well with pasta, risotto, pizza, grilled meats, roasted vegetables, mushrooms, eggs, potatoes, and creamy sauces. It also works beautifully in mashed potatoes, soups, and savoury dips, where its umami richness enhances overall depth.

Rich, earthy, and intensely aromatic, Selektia Tartufi Black Truffle Flavoured Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a versatile finishing oil that brings the deep savoury character of black truffle to everyday and gourmet cooking alike.
